14 India, Nepal and Tibet
As you all know I'm studying in Turkey for about 4,5 months. I was planning to travel around in Turkey and maybe Georgia after my studies are finished around the 25th of june here. But there has been a change of plans..
The new plan is that I will fly to India from Turkey (much, much cheaper then from the Netherlands) and from there travel to 'Little Lhasa', the place where the Dalai Lama lives (it is actually possible to meet him here).
From there I want to travel furhter up north to Nepal and to Tibet to end up in Lhasa, the capital of Tibet. On the way I want to visit all the places (or at least some) areas the Dalai Lama passed when he fled Tibet for the Chinese soldiers back in 1957. All those places are now pilgrimige places, holy places for the Tibetan people. I want to visit these places and make photography documentary about it.
The only problem on my way is the bad weather during that time of year (after 25th of june). It will be so poor that sometimes you can not even see the difference between night and day in Nepal..
I will have to do some more research about the monsoon rain before I go, but If I go, it will be a real challenge!
