Whether you have already been, or want to go, on a Humanitarian Clowning Tour, this day-by-day trip journal will entertain and enlighten you with its informal, conversational and silly style. Clowns from many countries, aged 3 to 74, spent two weeks traveling from Moscow to St. Petersburg, meeting Russians. Our two missions on this 24th annual Russian tour were to become a close-knit troupe, and to visit children and their caregivers in orphanages, hospitals and home hospices. Patch's passion for universal justice, peace and healing humor were contagious. "Clowning brings love close." - Patch Adams, M.D.
