BHD’s new hunt ORIENT EXPRESS “East Asian Train” includes 6x HUNT PATHS concentrating around EAST ASIAN COUNTRIES/CITY STATES (such as “Japan, China, Thailand, Indonesia, Cambodia and Singapore“). This means the vendor of a certain hunt path designs a gift that is focused on the CULTURE/TRADITION and/or STYLE of the selected East Asian country.
