| LAND OF THE THUNDER DRAGON - KINGDOM OF BHUTAN |
| | | | Greetings Friend,
I couldn't resist sharing the top photo of these Bhutanese children. Of course, there are happy children all over the world, but seeing happiness in this older woman is even more touching and says a lot. Bhutan measures what matters to their people.
Many countries measure the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Bhutan measures the Gross National Happiness or GNH. This GNH index measures specific variables, such as home-ownership and health. The government actually uses this in policy decisions.
Just wanted to check in with you about Bhutan since August is nearly here and we're offering a special savings through the end of July. We have a few spaces left...
If you're immersed in summer activities, November can seem like a long ways off, yet it will be here before we know it. So we need to give our final count to our Bhutanese partners soon. |
| | | This is one of the most exotic countries in the world: The Kingdom of Bhutan. The image above is the Tiger’s Nest, the Taktsang Monastery in the Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan.
Hidden between Tibet and the crest of the Himalayas to the steamy jungles of India, Bhutan is known as the Land of the Thunder Dragon. Independent for centuries and never colonized, Bhutan is a magic place.
It is entirely unique. The festivals, traditions, culture, religion, and more, make it safe to say that there is no place like it on earth.
When you get to spend time with nomadic people, it is a life memorable experience. We will meet the country’s most unique people, the Brokpa, (below). They are semi-nomadic yak herders living very traditionally in hidden valleys reachable only by trekking or 4WD track, as we will. We always leave realizing how much we share as human beings.
Click the red box, below, to see more photos and the itinerary. This is a very cool adventure. We can only take a small group of adventurers. Be one of them! |
