Timor-Leste ***The 1 horsepower project *** It’s been 16 years when Timor-Leste gained independence from their invasive neighbours of Indonesia to become one of the world’s youngest countries. Although its capital Dili might be the brain of the country, the ’sukus’ (villages) remain the nation’s heart and soul. For several weeks I had been touring through Timor-Leste's remoteness where the cultural identity pulsates in the art of day to day survival, as well as a genuine and unspoilt hospitality with only minor disturbance by social transition. As usual, nothing really went according to plan, and that was the best part about it. Thanks to my '1 horsepower project' I've experienced it all. Sometimes I was considered a terrorist, other days a hero, but most of all; 'Jesus on a pony'.

Avo Lafeik (Grandfather Crocodile) This is Tomasina and her descendants. Tomasina is one of the main adats of Suku Loro and believes her ancestory are the crocodiles. Thanks to rumors, many think the Timorese would still believe in their crocodile ancestry. But in fact, there are only a few places in the country where this myth is deeply rooted within the society. And the larger the radius to these traditional areas, the more the cult is dismissed as superstitious nonsense. Suai Loro is one of the cultural hotspots. Situated just next to the crocodile infested swamp, this tiny village looks like an Ethnological Museum came to life. Apparently, the community has changed little over the centuries and maintained their typical lifestyle. Until now, they dwell in picturesque stilt houses roofed with palm leaves, cooking outdoor in improvised bamboo kitchens, and meticulously sweeping their courtyards as if a master of a Japanese Zen garden is coming by for quality control on a daily basis.

It’s been 16 years when Timor-Leste gained independence from their invasive neighbours of Indonesia to become one of the world’s youngest countries. Although its capital Dili might be the brain of the country, the ’sukus’ (villages) remain the nation’s heart and soul. "Kollega, ba nebe? (Where are you heading to my friend?)", I'm being asked approx. a dozen times per day, and even here, some 50 meters away from the country's highest peak this very question seems to be an appropiate way to greet each other. From the top of Mount Tatamailau, the spiritual hotspot of Timor-Leste, I had been adventuring crosscountry to the village of Laclubar on foot. Not least to experience the country's heartland as well as a genuine and unspoilt hospitality with only minor disturbance by social transition. The mountain dwellers may not have much to call their own, but they'll treat a stranger like their own family member. Once arriving in Laclubar I was keen to figure out what Timor-Leste's local transport is all about, therefore I ventured to Bacau, then to Los Palos in the far East and back to Dili by using the very sporadic and unreliable system of public transportation including buses, minivans, bemos and trucks. I remember sitting on the roof of a bus until the police pulled us over, apparently it's forbidden to ride on the roof - But what about hanging out of the sidedoor with half your body while the bus goes at full speed? That's just fine! As a penalty for participating in the rooftop party everyone was detached to perform 50 push-ups. Did I mention how much I love this country?!

Poy Sang Long - a ceremony among the Shan minority, celebrated in Myanmar and neighboring Thailand. The majority of Shan are Theravada Buddhists. Poy Sang Long is the kickoff for several boys between seven and fourteen years of age to participate in the monastery life for a period of time. In Thailand, where Shan immigrants have brought over the traditions from Myanmar, the ceremony goes on for three days, as the boys (dressed like princes in imitation of Gautama Buddha, who was himself a prince before setting out on the religious path) spend the entire time being carried around on the shoulders of their older male relatives. On the third day, they are ordained. Thus, the novices enter the monastery for a period of at least one week, and perhaps many years.
