An evening with my cousin Andrew Gordon, his lovely wife Tina, and dog Ginger, at their home beside the Rhine (near Cologne). Ian and Andrew shared their experiences of serving in the British army in Germany. And we talked of family (British, Tanzanian and German) and politics.  Before moving to Germany, Andrew was a Labour Councillor in Greenwich while working as Equalities Officer in Islington. More recently, Tina stood as social democrat candidate for their village (Widdig) but with Conservatives running the carnival and the volunteer fire service she didn't stand a chance!

    The day to day account of our travels was posted on a  "Psychedelic travellers" WhatsApp group and a "Julia and Ian in China" WeChat group.  So postings after October are summaries and reflections.  To follow the story in chronological order, work your way back through the archives from March. Why "Psychedelic Travellers"? Because we read Michael Pollan's 2018 book How to change your mind:the new science of psychedelics, and liked the way Pollan likens an acid trip to travelling in an unfamiliar country.
