Up to Date!

I have just posted my time from volunteering in Batase Village here

I had an awesome time in the village and have had a great time in Nepal. The plan is now to be back here later this year and hopefully make another trip out to the village to help out.

I leave for Mt Kailash on Tuesday which I am very excited about - It should be awesome. It is the most holy mountain for buddhists and hindus and I will be there among thousands of pilgrams for Saga Dawa, the day that Tibetan Buddhist's celebrate Buddha's birth, death and enlightenment. Its a 17 day trip and I'll post photos and things late June.

China Part 2 and the Amdo region of Tibet

Well after nearly 6 months my Blog is nearly up to date!

The second part of my China trip is online (starting at Jiayugaun, the end of the Great Wall) and my time in the Amdo region of Tibet is up as well.

I've just come back from 4 weeks of teaching english in Batase, a rural village east of Kathmandu. I had an awesome time out there and all the kids were great!! I'll look to post photos and things from my time there before I head to Mt Kailash at the end of May. In the mean time you can find out more about the village at the Friends of Himalayan Children Website.

All the best, Russell!
