Yak shimo sez (hello in Uyger)

Just wanted to post this because I've been thinking about it a lot. I just got an e-mail from a friend who lives in Chengdu, but who I met in Zhongdian. They are going to teach english during the spring in Yubong, and would like me to join them for a couple of months. If I accepted and went to teach english with them in Yubong, it would mean two things, one, I wouldn't be back in the states for a total of over a year, and two, I would be in the same place long enough to have visitors. This is a long way off, and dependent on a number of factors, but I think I would really like to do it if I have the chance. For those who weren't around for the beggining of my blog, Yubong is a small Tibetan village on the Tibet, Yunnan border. It has no roads, and can only be reached by a 20km hike or horse ride. If I do end up doing this, I will post an extensive guide on how to reach Yubong from the states.

Also, while I have the chance, I should say that when I start bicycling my posts could become more scarce. They might be wrong, but according to the books and online info I have it looks like internet access will be spaced between 2 and 3 weeks in some places.

Anyways, nothing new in Kashgar.
