visit to a local tibetan school
kids of a wide age range all intrigued by the strangers
very sensitive situation. time only for a few pictures.
the classrooms look the same
a few shy students sit on a chair, some look at the camera, relaxed,
others are nervous and look to their friends for help.
some smile, others laugh, the rest are quiet.
invited to another village to a rural school away from politics and police.
i will have no translation, just my nerves.
today still very tired although a good sleep with many strange dreams
including what i think was a house on fire. well, whatever reason we
came out of the house on a zip line.
head sore, eyes sting, throat very painful.
a map of china infront of me. a boy studying language beside me.
old people making new memories. not very comfortable situations i find.
