"Giraffe women" who stay in the jungles of Burma

Remember "Ripley's Believe it or not" behind Indrajal Phantom and Mandrake comics. I had seen their picture during my school days about "giraffe women" who stay in the jungles of Burma. Their necks are unbelievable long and seeing is believing.

I am here on the Thai Burma border with a slow internet connection but managed to upload photos + experience of my one week homestay with this delightful and most hospitable long neck tribe.

Please click on:

to make some amazing discoveries bordering on the unexplored and unexplained.

Camp: Hue Sai Tao on the Burma- China border I will be in Angkor Wat in Cambodia next week. Await some great pics from there of 1000 Shivlings
