About this user
The following videos were made from still pictures I took while traveling during the summer of 2006 and 2007. When watching these, you'll follow my journey from Calcutta to Darjeeling, up through Sikkim in the foothills of the Himalayas, into the monarchy of Bhutan- "Land of the Thunder Dragon" and back down again, and also from Darjeeling into Germany.
Special thanks to all the people of India, Sikkim, Bhutan, and Germany, and to all the tourists and travellers I met while on this incredible journey.
Deepest gratitude to Eric Veras, Dave Rose, Mike Rex, and Lindsey Goodwin for their invaluable help with editing. I hope you enjoy watching these experiences as much as I did while having them!
