Not that many tramp steamers call at YK.  It is easy to get to
Singapore; I do it often, on the way to somewhere else, and I am just
a poor old pensioner.  One method I have used on occasions is to work
as a volunteer in some obscure developing country, and then your fare
would be paid.  Contact CUSO.  I used to have a few Canuks supplied by
that organisation working for me in PNG.  One was a retired panel
beater from Vancouver, who was excellent at training local mechanics.
His wife came with him and taught at a local school.
 
 GJ> try the durian ice cream

 JW> I would. After all durian is a fruit and not an allium; it should
 JW> make good ice cream.

That is worth looking for.
