Teaching & trekking in Langtang...

by TracyG - last update: May 8, 2006

Children at the childrens library - Thulo Bharkhu

The teaching...

I spent a wonderful few months living and teaching at the local government school and childrens library in Thulo Bharkhu (near Dhunche). I lived with an amazing family that gave me an insight into the Buddhist religion and Tamang culture. I also met the man that I want to 'one day' marry. Not bad for a short career break...

The trekking...

I spent 10 days doing the Langtang and Goisankunda trek with a fellow volunteer and my now wonderful partner. It was a beautiful mix of stunning mountain scenery and an insight into the local peoples lives and I would highly recommend it to anyone...

Pros:"Beautiful mountain scenery and beautiful Tamang people..."
Cons:"The 9-10 hr bus journey to get here!"
In A Nutshell:"Remember to explore the varied cultures not just the mountains..."
