Trekking around Kalaw…
Kalaw Trekking…
Great trek among the hill tribes!
We spent 3 days trekking with Kyaw Hla (Yola). One day trip from Kalaw and 2 day 1 night trek from Kalaw to Inle Lake. We had been lamenting not being able to relate to the obviously fascinating country that is Myanmar due to lack of English proficiency on the part of the guides thus far. Yola was a breath of fresh air in that he not only was able to communicate the intricacies of the culture in fluent English, he has a great sense of humor. On top of that, he is a great cook! Some of the best foods we had while traveling in Myanmar were meals cooked by Yolanda on our trek (avocado salad!!).
