My Tibetan Friend

Those of you who have followed Ian and my Inja Or Bust weblog will be familiar with the Tibetan monks Tamkey and Lekshey we met in Darjeeling (http://www.injaorbust.blogspot.com).

I have kept contact with Tamkey through emails and we correspond about once a week. He is such a gentle soul and gives me news of his studies to become a doctor so he can open a hospital in his village in Tibet.

His last email contained a couple of photos, one with his Mum and one of his family.




I count Tamkey as a true friend and I am humbled by his simple philosophy and life. It is my hope that one day I will be able to visit Tamkey and his family in Tibet.
