Bhutan is a tiny Buddhist monarchy in the Himalayas, hidden
away between China and India. Life still revolves around the growing seasons,
and stays about 80 years in the past. Life is simple but harsh. The Bhutanese
people's lives are linked to these rugged mountains. They are very tough
but also generous and kind. I
am an American woman married to a Bhutanese man. We have an unlikely marriage
but agood one and live beside the Thimphu Tsangchu, which
means 'clean river'.
