Tibetan Refugee Camp

Pokhara has several Tibetan refugee camps..I visited one today, interviewed an elderly lady who trekked for 2 years in 1960 when she was 13 years old to come here for refuge from the Chinese.

We chatted...and then...we danced.

It was heartwarming...

Also saw the Seti Gorge, the Mahendra Caves, and a few other sites and temples...but her face and thoughts were the highlight.
