Long bus trips, cramped airplanes and overcrowded trains are not fun but being in foreign lands, learning about different cultures, and meeting and working with the people is priceless.

Ladakh is one of the most sparsely populated regions in Kashmir with the primary religion being Buddhism. Ladakhis have long had a reputation of being some of the friendliest and most hospitable people while also being very shy and private. Its inhabitants define the landscape of the area. Buddhist temples and monasteries look down from high dry peaks on lush green valleys. It is a harsh but amazing mountain paradise. To see more images from Ladakh, search "Ladakh".
