In the week since the earthquake struck Haiti, so many lives have been lost. The devastation and destruction is overwhelming. But new babies have been born in the past days, and children need water, food, and care. We can help now with the beginnings of Haiti's recovery.

Kalaw is famous for its scenery. Unfortunately it was raining like monsoon for days and we could not go hiking. This picture is from the morning we left, when the rain paused for a moment.
Please keep in mind:
Burma (Myanmar) is ruled by a military junta. In 1990 Aung San Suu Kyi was elected by the people and imprisoned for the next 20 years after the election by the military.
In 2010 a election was staged to keep the military leaders in their current positions. People are starving and are forced to work.
All the pictures you may see in my stream are very onesided, as it is prohibited to take pictures of the military and the police. Also I just do not take pictures of poor people on the streets and there are a lot of very poor people in Burma.
The Burmese people are the nicest people I ever met and should be supported, even if I don´t really know how.
The country needs support. I posted some links to some international organizations helping Burma.
Burma is NOT the usual travel destination! Even if I am avoided all governement fees as far as possible (partly in long hours of bus travel) I still can´t say that I am sure travelling the country helps the people or should be boycotted as proposed by some people.
The government just moved the capital to Naypyidaw. When I saw it from the bus passing it, I had tears in my eyes seeing how the "Generals" collect the money building fancy buildings and streets around them with people starving. I was so shocked that I did not even took a picture...

and of a smaller German organisation (I met one of the responisbles during my trip)
This is an incomplete list, I´ve also seen www.doctorswithoutborders.org and there are others.
Please help, the burmese people need it.

Adolphine, 4 ans, souffre du paludisme. Il est prise en charge au département de pédiatrie de l'hôpital général de Walikalé, soutenu par Médecins Sans Frontières, dans la province du Nord-Kivu en République démocratique du Congo, le 12 février 2017. / Adolphine, 4 yeras old, is suffering from malaria. She is taken care at the pediatric department of the general hospital of Walikalé, supported by Médecins Sans Frontières, in the province of North Kivu of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, on February 12th, 2017.
Doctors Without Borders put on this exhibit for five days with guided tours. I was glad to see lots of school kids were on field trips to see the exhibit. Being a connoisseur of alternative housing paired with emergencies, I made the trek up to see it and rode my bike from Caltrain. It was one of the hottest days this October. Over 80°. Pretty eery. Just like summer, my mother said, only the days are shorter.
Is not this rather the fast that I have chosen? loose the bands of wickedness, undo the bundles that oppress, let them that are broken go free, and break asunder every burden.
Deal thy bread to the hungry, and bring the needy and the harbourless into thy house: when thou shalt see one naked, cover him, and despise not thy own flesh.
Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thy health shall speedily arise, and thy justice shall go before thy face, and the glory of the Lord shall gather thee up.
Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall hear: thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am.
Guests are stopped at a border along their journey to discuss legal statuses that apply to different groups of displaced people.

A trishaw in the back of a monastry in Mandelay. The trishaw is still a common transportation in Burma, as cars are very expensive and gas very limited.

I found this well in Kinpun, at the bottom of Mt. Kyaikto. It is amazing to see how water is pumped out of this well, with the tubes disappearing into the ground next to the well. The rope is for the conventional way of getting the water :)

Please donate to the Haitian relief effort. We have so much and they have nothing (Except talent!). You can find lists of relief organizations online. I think Doctors Without Borders is a good organization and they have been working in haiti for a long time, so they know what they are doing.
