    Travelfish long-time regulars may remember the threads back in 2006 when Ryan Chicovsky went missing in Xieng Kok in northwest Laos. This morning I stumbled upon the website his family set up and found not only are they still looking for him, they have added quite a few more photos.

    So, if you were travelling in Laos in early 2006, take a look -- perhaps they'll ring some bells.

    Given some of Ryan's clothing and gear were found, the outlook doesn't sound too promising, but, if you were in the area (or know someone who was) please do take a look at the website here.

    Strange a body never turned up. Since it appears he disappeared in the evening - sounds like a robbery or something that went bad. Most people don't go hiking in places where you would have an accident and not be found at night. Possible, but seems unlikely. Sad case, tough for a family to lose a kid like that - never know his fate, always some nagging doubt he might still be alive out there.

    Has anyone heard anymore about this case? Someone in the village knows what happened.

    The recent case here of the missing girl reminded me of this case. Has anything ever come to light about it?
