Some reasons why I like the Himalayas


Its back to Ladakh and these are some of my reasons…

the landscapes

the prayer flags

the people: Ladakhis, Lahualis, Spitians, Tibetans


the sublime cycling opportunities

the sustainable livelihood practices

the dogs

the villages

the high altitude flowers

the colours (and the monastries)

the donkeys

the momos

the monks things

the Buddhist way and the openness

and I like to ride my bike

    May you be happy, peaceful and contented, free from suffering and the causes of suffering. May you know the ultimate truth.
