Smoking The Cigar Of Myanmar
I’ll Try Anything Once
When in Rome… you pass the peace pipe.
Aside from mixing idioms, I have a tendency to jump in with both feet to experience as much as possible when I travel.
During a spontaneous village tour outside Bagan with a 13-year-old local girl, I purchased a freshly-made cigar from her family that were rolling them by-hand.
I’m not a cigar-lover anyway, but was highly curious to taste it; it didn’t taste too bad either.
After a few puffs I gifted it to the Burmese man standing next to me, who seemed very excited to see the cigar when I brought it out.
It is customary for the older generation (grandparents) to enjoy smoking these handmade cigars and they are truly unique to Myanmar.
Some books are discovered after they’re published.
Book One is experienced while it’s still unfolding.
Act Two is an invitation into a living work of art where stories, films, photographs, reflections, and creative discoveries come together as the manuscript continues to take shape. Every visit offers something new because the journey is still alive. You are invited to explore it now.
