nice pics! beautiful country and gorgeous coastline. i was there 6-7 years ago. one day, whilst i was waiting for my friends running errands, i caught myself in a sort of trance looking up to the buildings in this square and, suddenly, i noticed all the bullet holes through the buildings. it made me think about what they went through during the 90s conflicts. it is great to live in a place of peace. bjs e saudades

bhutan"s beautiful hi , i am planning a trip to bhutan in mid nov 12 , suggestions are welcome. pl tell me what not to miss , as i have only 4 days in bhutan.
Bhutan .... Of course Tiger Nest hike is a must. I still have to blog about it and also about my time at Haa Valley, which I loved. Very quiet, still untouched, but it's a very long, tiring day to explore it. Panahka Valley is very nice as well and worth a trip. Thimphu attractions were not that interesting to me, so can be skipped. Have a great trip.
Hello from Bombay Hola....What a Wonderful World....Just started reading your blog and it is going to keep me occupied for some time for sure....Love the pictures and your write up.
If I may, would like to correct a few typos....Henna aka Mehndi, the word Mandi means market in hindi......Holy men or Sadhus....
Safe Travels..Ashok
Punakha Punakha, at the confluence of two mighty Himalayan rivers! At the Dzong, I was enchanted by the wall murals depicting he story of the Guru Rimpoche and the establishment of Tantric Buddhism..
So Helpful. Am an Indian and your blog posts are well composed and very descriptive.
I was looking at traveling to Kasol or a place close by and your blog has been a great help.
Also I'd like to mention that the 'Holy men' are not termed as Shaadu but Sadhu.
Anyway Keep writing and traveling:)
P.S - You traveled by a public bus. That's quite the dare. Salute to that!
your comments I love getting comments from other travelers!!! As for bus in the hills of India, or plain terrain for that matter, it was truly insane. i don't thing I'd dare again. ahahahhah. As for misspelling, I know my blogs are filled with them. Between writing fast, whenever I get internet, and sometimes thinking in Portuguese and writing in English, mistakes are bound to happen. One of these days I might have time to edit. One day.... thanks
loved your blog.!. iit's a sad affair that tourists are lcharged that way by the local touts.so are so many things wrong over here in india,but believe me,it's equally frustrating for us indians too,and yes the indian men are pathetic,they stare at u all the time,not just foreigners but at all women,all the time....Your journey was a pleasure to read,but felt sorry for all ur trouble.

I by chance stumbled on your blog. I wanted to let you know that the news of Komang and Kadek who both have HI reached me 2 weeks ago.
You should rest assured that your work here is not done and forgotten because many people are helping out as the word travel. I will be traveling to Bali in a few weeks time and have organised a few suitcases of Petroleum Jelly, and I'm just one person. Helen is one person, as is John and Pak Nyoman.

Plural of penis? Ha ha. I loved your entry. One of the best things about travelling are these unusual occurences. Your blog made me wonder at the plural of penis though. A quick google search yielded penises, penes, and peni. As many possibilities as photo opportunies?
Your blog has been very informative and helpful Hi, I was searching about Kasol when I found ur blog. Its really helpful. I am planning to go there in a week. Can you please tell me which guest house you stayed at, if you can remember ? Your photos are great. Really appreciate it.
Hotel. Hi. I don't remember the name, but we stayed at a hotel on the right side of the road, as we entered Kasol. It had about 4 floors. On the blog I mention a GH of a friendly gentleman I met. Hope you enjoy the area.
Update on Komang... Got first update on "our little boy". He is doing much better now with better nutrition and hydration, and also the creams. Trying to feed himself, no more flies on his wounds (fans helping), and doing "poo poo" without struggle. Hopefully more good news will keep coming. We are trying to get him to a children's health care facility. It will be costly and probably he will stay there for a while, so please spread the word. We need all the help we can get. Luv, Patricia
WITH DEEPEST REGRET, I WOULD LIKE TO INFORM YOU PATRICIA PASSED AWAY ON JUNE 12, 2017.
MAY THESE ENTRIES, SO LOVINGLY MADE BY PATRICIA, BE AN EVERLASTING TRiBUTE TO A PHENOMENAL, HUMANIST WOMAN. PATRICIA IS FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS AND THOUGHTS.

I'm a Brazilian and long time resident of the US.
I've always been fascinated by cultural diversity and I've had the opportunity to travel overseas over the years. 2005, however, brought me the "wings" to fly solo and further away. I started these new jorneys with Tibet (picture). That's huge for someone who used to panic ... full info
