This was an 18 day life adventure that is taking me a lot of time to reflect on and write. So, in the mean time enjoy the photos...! I will post the extended version of the Blog when I "get it together".

I learnt all of the most important Tibetan phrases for cycling to ensure survival..."hello, goodbye, good, slowly slowly, strong healthy body, and the cook makes very delicious food.

For the "real" story make sure you come to my presentation "7 Weeks in Tibet".
