In 1994, Kimberly Brown embarked on a lifelong dream of travelling the globe overland.  Her trip innocently began in San Francisco on a hippie bus called the Green Tortoise. She worked the Galway Arts Festival in Ireland, traversed Russia on the Trans-Siberian railway, and rode horses on the high Mongolian plains. If it hadn't been for a nasty stomach bug she caught in China, she may never have volunteered as a teacher at Mae La refugee camp on the Thai/Burmese border in the middle of a war.  Immersing herself in the ways of the Karen people, Kimberly discusses some of the harrowing events she experienced and witnessed (including having her own life threatened twice), the enduring spirit of a country less people, and how the refugees healed her and changed her life forever. Now a naturopathic doctor, in much due to her experience with the Karen refugees, you can find Dr. Kimberly Brown at www.sanjoseintegrativemedicine.com and follow her at: https://www.instagram.com/drkimberlybrown/ https://www.facebook.com/drkimberlybrownFind out more at www.ruthmillingtonauthor.comDon't forget to RATE, REVIEW AND SUBSCRIBE on your podcast app. It means you will be the first to hear when new episodes come out and it will help others to find this podcast!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ruthmillingtonauthor/Twitter: https://twitter.com/RuthMillington1Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ruth.millington.52/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ruth-millington-54915b24/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSShare Your Story  Have an extreme travel story to tell?

Plus a health warning about medicines that are considered illegal drugs in some parts of the world. Many thanks to Tony Wheeler, co-founder of Lonely Planet publications, for his contribution.

Many years ago, deep in the heart of San Francisco, an earnest and barely-out Dara pitched an exchange; free board at the filthy hostel The Green Tortoise in return for brand strategy services.Diving into her branding role with gusto, Dara creates her first video clip for the hostel, titled ‘What the Tortoise Taught Us’. It is deemed a ‘success’ and attracts budding lyricists from the remaining bunkbeds.Dara is then invited to produce an original track penned by one of her bunkmates; ‘The Strawberry Song’.She proceeds to create an upbeat, melodic backing track, harmonies and a video clip for a song which she believes is about a bowl of strawberries.Blinded by her own innate talents for musicality, Dara sends this video to family and friends.It is, in fact, a highly graphic, lesbian sex song.
