“…An indefatigable and determined traveler-pilgrim like Alice M. Sun-Cua would not think twice of heeding the call of the journey and actually launching herself onto the oftentimes perilous path of unfolding experiences and discoveries… From our own travels elsewhere, we know that the travails of negotiating through space, time and cultural differences can be difficult to handle at times. Alice with her best travel buddy, husband Alex know this, and they take the travails as part of the sojourn. What makes us marvel is her way of retrieving for us, not the merely adventurous or challenging, but more importantly the quiet, indelible moments when authentic, albeit oftentimes passing, human contact in friendship and compassion is achieved and celebrated…”
