Himalaya


We ended Spring Break with a wonderful movie by Eric Valli. Although this is fictional, it captures the way of life of the Dolpopa people of Tibet.

My husband and I watched it by ourselves one night, and decided to share this incredible movie with our children. Good thing they can both read, though we would've read it to them :) The children were enthralled not only by the majestic backdrop but the story itself -- a struggle to claim leadership in a small village during their annual salt trek. And so much more. I highly recommend this movie.
