Expedition: Bolaven Plateau, Champasak, Laos, 2011
It started as a disaster. I was at a physics conference in Beijing, getting ready to fly to Laos in the afternoon of the last day of the meeting. In the morning of that day I got skillfully pick-pocketed in the Inner City. Fortunately, only the credit cards were taken. I still had my phone, passport and just enough cash for a cab ride. I made it back to the conference site and started targeting my colleagues, taking them to an ATM and making them withdraw cash to finance my Laos trip. I raised almost 6,000 Yuan (USD 1000). Changing Yuan to USD was a pain, but I finally managed to do it at the airport. Having arrived in Pakse, Laos, I changed all the money to Lao Kip. Some 10,000,000 Lao Kip... It turned out that spending much more than a tenth of that amount in Champasak in one week was extremely difficult. I planned on changing the remaining 8,500,000 Kip back to hard currency at the airport. Only at the last moment did I learn the key differences between an airport and an airfield... I still have that stack of Lao Kip bills. I can't get rid of them, since Kip are totally not convertible...
Apart from that educational experience, the trip was very nice indeed. I rented a scooter and drove around with my net, enjoying complete freedom. A high point was a bunch of kids bringing me a plastic bag with several huge Lyssa zampa moths in it. I never understood where they got them from: I did some light collecting but none ever came.
