Burma is dangerous. You might check out Sri Lanka instead. They are Theravada and accept foreigners, and if you stay out of the north and east and the capitol itself, it;s pretty safe. They don't do the begging bowl, but they are supported by the people. If interested, you could contact Ven. Piyananda at Dharma Vijaya in Los Angeles. http://www.dharmavijaya.org/
