Touching Timor....Part 1

Have just returned from a 10 day vacation to Timor Leste with a group of intrepid fellow travellers and what an amazing experience it has been.   Culture shock? Well it was pretty hard not to be affected by the abject poverty rampant in this country of just over 1 million people.
