Lolo's Travels

Thailand ~ Mae Hong Son (#4c)

As protection against leeches while trekking, our porters soaked tobacco with river water, and then soaked our shoes and socks with the resulting brew.  Its meant to kill them once they touch it, but one made it to my ankle...the resulting bite is sure to leave a scar...!
