Hello! Well it's been ages since I last blogged and I've been very busy, (Getting older too....) so to save the boredom I'll list the highlights (And not so high lights) of the last few weeks... Leaving India was sad, had a great time there with dad but was looking forward to starting the next leg and the final part of my trip. Back in Nepal I had a lazy few days, dodged the monsoon rains and eagerly awaited Tibet, Part 2. As expected, it didn't disappoint. I w...

Hi All, Well I'm back in New Delhi for what feels like he millionth time and I leave tonight on ANOTHER overnight train to hed back into Nepal. I've a fantastic 2 weeks with pops, who spoiled me rotten, and I've definitely gained more weight, joy joy!! Back to Weightwatchers methinks....

Nepal is notorious for daily strikes that affect transp...

Namaste from Kathmandu! I've safely arrived in Nepal after an awesome road trip with the funniest driver and guide I've ever met!

A quick run down then, 4 days on the road including what felt like 1 million temples and 2 milllion manasteries (But it wasn't really....) The first day we drove from Lhasa...

Hi all! Well I've made it safely to Tibet and as I said on the last blog the train journey was AMAZING. My first night in Lhasa was spent wandering (SLOWLY!) around the old town and searching for food. Because of the proximity to Nepal and India, Lhasa has lots of cuisine to choose from and I was very excited to see some paneer (Which actually turned out to be bad cheese but never mind!) Lhasa itself is very beautiful but I found the military presence a littl...
