		<description><![CDATA[The day has finally arrived ! We are terribly excited about the prospect of going white-water-rafting in Tibet. Hopefully, we might even get a T-shirt to prove it. Chris, the Australian chap in charge of the company, came to pick us up in his lovely lime green jeep. He is a terribly nice chap. It [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Another day, another temple. Yesterday the most sacred one, this time the biggest one in the country (well, the Autonomous Region of Tibet).
We head off early to Drepung Monastery, a very large complex about 10kms out of the city. It is an impressive sight: it looks like a very large village, all built in the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The day was spent walking about Lhasa, taking in the sight and the atmosphere. The Tibetan quarters are extremely pleasant and full of happenings. They have all remained pedestrian, with no space for cars. Every street is transformed daily into a street market and nightly into a restaurant and play area. It is filled with [...]]]></description>

We were quickly ready, folding sleeping bags away, putting away a couple of books and that was it. [...]]]></description>

I haven&#8217;t seen the sun since I set foot in the city. As soon as I return home and wipe my face, the towel is black. Mendicty, corruption, prostitution, [...]]]></description>
