De mo to all from Rebgong
I have to admit, I thought I would not be around a computer doing email, but Tibet is more modern than I had expected. We talk about our romantic visions and I see women walking down the street in Rebgong that would fit suitably on the streets of New York. We also see the nomadic folks in more traditional dress as well, which is a great style. I see them and look at my own unstylish duds and wonder what they think of us. It is all very curious.
As Galen mentioned, the students projects are really coming along. Their teachers are amazed at the speed at which they are picking up technique. Pratt, and Ringling are serving our students well.
I am a little behind preparing photos to send, but I have been shooting alot and will keep the photos coming. Keep in touch.
With warm regards to family and friends,
Cheryl

Hi Cheryl!
The pictures are stunning! I love the "view of Backor" Reminds me of an Andreas Gursky photograph. You are going to have sooooo much to work with photo wise. It looks like you are having an amazing time. We miss you here. How is the food? Have you all been adapting well to your living conditions etc? How's the treking? xxxooo, Jocelyn and the boys
