Earthworm Envy!

I met Idaho folks Brandon and Amy by a campfire at the fine You Sabai cooking school in Northern Thailand. Their travel writing, videos and omelet reviews (yes, omelet reviews) will crack you up and make you think. Think David Sedaris, Rolf Potts and Wes Anderson in one package.

Read I'm still Poor, Eating like a Yuppie who shops at the Boise Coop", or check out their beautiful short film of the morning alms ceremony in Luang Prabang.

Trust me on this one. Amy and Brandon are true Rucksack Wanderers, flat broke and enlightened, armed with a camera, a lap-top, a wicked sense of humor and the truth.

u enjoyed ur Trip :) thats reaLLy Great :)
here is a piece of advice for u from me that wud really help u in ur upcoming Trips, Light load Beach Towels are the world’s only beach Towels that fit in your pocket. They are more absorbent than cotton beach towels and can be used as a wind or winter scarf in cold wet conditions. Great for travel or any activity that requires packing light.
Check it out @ ultralighttowels(dot)com
I can bet u wiLL reaLLy find it useful :)

Tim,

Thanks for the Earthworm Envy blog post. Your thoughts mean a lot. This summer Amy and I will be at the Idaho Rocky Mountain Ranch.
