Playing table-tennis with the monks

They were pros though, so Jean-Christophe didn’t stand a chance! We wonder if they also have some buddha dedicated to table-tennis… ;-)

    Probably yes, after all it's a fun game and rather cheap to get started with.

    It was fun playing with them. One thing to notice is that they hold the racket differently than what we "standard" do. some people use it that way too in Europe, but it is not as common as here. Jean-Christophe
