he did say recently that he or she has spent 17 months travelling in Asia and people had been very helpful with him/her for all of the "travelling in Asia" questions. I dont know if he ended up travelling on his folding bike at all, but who knows.

but thats ok asking for advice. A lot of his questions tend to be about lowering a daily budget, which does help when one is spending a long time travelling around like he or she has supposedly been doing, so I get that.

as we know though, there are always people who find a bicycle touring forum and ask all kinds of questions, but dont really participate, but this is a faceless/anonymous internet thing that is not uncommon.
