Cris and I usually walk to and from the Hotel Tibet to the World Education office, but since it is monsoon and has been raining in the mornings we only walk back at the end of the day.  It takes about 45 minutes and, while it can be a bit sweaty and dusty, I really look forward to it.  Yesterday I stopped to take the picture below and then this young man shot me this lovely smile.

It is interesting to be in a country where so much work is still done by hand.

Thanks for following along.

    The craftsmanship is amazing. I thought I would have an empty suitcase going back from my trip to Thailand and Vietnam… not a chance. As lovely as things were, the memories are the best and stay with one forever.
