Buddha's eyes stare down,
mountain top stupa,
you down there
climbing east
up, up, up,
down, up, down
Nepali flat
At night
after dal bat and rice
the high ground
seems upside down
candle light flames flicker
from the hills below
mimicking the stars
About Us
Hello. Welcome to Chase the Rising Sun. We're Michael and Lauren Crigler, the founders of this little project. Well, this project is essentially us. We began Chase the Rising Sun in early 2007 with just a shared dream to travel. Now, here we are a year later with a website, a purpose, and a few tickets taking us around the world.How did we do it, you ask? Good question!One evening, while enjoying our favorite dinner of Indian food (Bhagan Bharta) and planning a trip we were about to take to visit Michael's dad in Switzerland, we realized that 2 vacation weeks a year was a joke. There was so much we wanted to see and not enough time in our lives to do it all. So, that night, at that table in Allston, MA, we made up our minds. We were going travel. We were going to sell everything we owned, save up as much money as possible and experience what we dreamed about when we were kids flipping through National GeographicSo that's that. But here's the thing, we didn't just want to travel the world as tourists. We knew there was more to be experienced than what the modern-day western traveler normally sees: pretty neat stuff outside the tour bus window. We have a deep respect for the many diverse cultures on this planet, and we wanted to get involved with these people on a real levelWhat the does that mean you ask?..
