English School - Myitkyina

The highhlight of my trip was being invited to address an English Class in the remote Provincial City of Myitkyina in Kachin State. Having lunch in a restaurant, a well dressed and polite man asked to sit with me and asked if I would visit his language school. That afternoon a Burmese girl on a motorbike picked me up at my hotel and took me out to the suburbs and I spent about an hour there talking to the class even using the blackboard. Was such good fun and an amazingly rewarding experience. We all went out together that evening for an evening meal at a Kachin Restaurant, a perfect day for a person who didn't want to be a tourist !. As you can see I was fairly obvious by my height, the English teacher and owner is on my right.
