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.
