Dolkar Tso, Dickyi Dolma, and Pema Dechen eating lunch...
Crispy rice is the best part - it's the rice that gets stuck to the bottom of the pan when it's cooked, then gets scraped off into one lucky diner's bowl...
Dolkar Tso and Pema Dechen walking to the spring for a shower...in the rain...with umbrellas...hmm
The awesome view from my bedroom...
A great backdrop for a basketball game...
Dakpa killing a spider in my room - look closely and you can see it's legs. Clearly it's huge! Wait - did I say killing? Buddhists don't KILL spiders - they chase them around your room, through your t-shirts, into your backpack, and up a fan, until releasing it peacefully right outside your door...gotta love it.
Dolkar Tso and Choeki studying...
Reading a book in the rare sunlight...
This is how we wash our hair...
...and our clothes...
...and how we get the mildew smell out of mattresses on a sunny day...
This is how we eat (I've been taking slurping lessons - which is necessary to cool the food - blowing on your mug/bowl is a thing of the past =) )...
...and brush our teeth down at the spring each night (my favorite part of the day).
