Highlights of my day in Thimphu

1) Checking out progress on the gorgeous home (mansion!) that my Bhutanese sister, Yangki Tshering is building. Yangki is as humble and strong a woman as I’ve ever met and I feel privileged to know her. That said I’m glad I’m not one of her home building workers, as she is putting them to task in creating a stunning place!

2) Eating lunch at my favorite local spot, momo house, and once again buying lunch for the family who had the balls to sit at the table with the lone outsider chick (yeah thats me).

Downside of the day: getting clear on how embarrassed I am to be an American right now, given the world view of our abomination of a “president”. Though seeing a book on Trump in my favorite bookstore here, right next to the book Frankenstein, eased the pain a bit today.
Tashi Delek from Bhutan!
