I'm Back

Well after a long absence I am firing up the blog again, however this time it will take the format of an online diary and have less editing than previous posts.

For those confused, the last post was made on 27 March, approximately four weeks after I actually wrote the copy. I was having a few problems with email, adjusting to a new country and meeting new people led me to neglect my writings.

Since then I have not been much better. I have managed to write some highlights of the various trips I have taken, although they are not in any format to publish yet.. so I am going to do my best over the course of this Bhutan experience to recall some of these events and publish them online over the course of the next few months.

Which brings me to another update. I have been given the opportunity to extend my stay in Bhutan for the next six months. This means that I have moved house with the view to settle more and establish some deeper roots in this country.

To assist with this I have splurged and purchased the best internet connection I can buy in this country. I am so happy. I now have satellite broadband at home and can use the internet whenever I want and also use skype.

How cool is that? You can be in a tiny kingdom in the middle of the Himalayas and still communicate as clear as day to people across the world. I love converging technology.

So from this day forth, there will be more blog action. Tales of meetings with Rinpoches, tours with royalty, treks to villages in remote parts of Bhutan, and generally a retelling of the story of my last four and a half months in Bhutan. And what a once-in-a-lifetime experience it has been.

Please feel free to register, so you can leave any comments. I am more than happy to answer any questions or for people to comment on my blogs.

Tashi Delek!
