TheLongWander.com is the personal site of a photographer who travels the world
.: The Long Wander.com :. My travel stories, photos and more from East Asia!
- When I started the idea was just to get out and wander around, see the world, and get stamps in my passport. But each new place was full of people and ideas and stories that I wanted to share. Travel became the story and the story is about travel.
- TheLongWander.com is a small collection of entertaining short stories and travel photography from my travels in East Asia.
About Us
- Sahand Sedghi
- Webmaster & Photographer
- Walking to his own beat led him out of his country three years ago and has kept him on the road less traveled ever since. Whether sword fighting in a tiny village in Japan or jumping from bridges in Africa, he has managed to survive every adventure and still get a great photo. What little time is left between continents has been filled with music, surfing and searching out the best ice-creams on the planet.
Featured Story
- Temple Tale
- "The color catches your eye. Through the crowds, up ahead, a golden orange plays between the people. Head shaved, sandal clad and carrying a bag in tune with his robe, stepping clear of women and moving calmly and easily he works his way through the crowd.
- In a country where towns sometimes bankrupt themselves to built extravagant temples, Buddhism is a part of daily life. Taking bowl and robe is a presumption for every Thai male. Most spend only three months as 'men of the robe,' in keeping with Thai tradition, or when an elder in the family dies.
- But in a tiny Wat south of Bangkok, along a stretch of beach where aborted developments rise starkly white along a lazy shoreline, boys as young as ten have taken on the weight of the monks' life, something common throughout Thailand."

Featured Text -- Here's a cool WikiPage. Webmaster and photographer Sahand Sedghi has placed some background information, a sample story and even aYouTube of a Sumo ceremony on the page for TheLongWander.com, his website filled with travel stories, photos and more from his voyages in East Asia. Until someone can figure out how to magically transport our readers via wiki to these exotic places, this is just about as cool as it gets.
