This blog follows the travels of the Turberfield family as they drop out of the normal busyness of corporate life to explore the ancient art of Tibetan Thangka, the dusty mountaintop temples of the eastern edge of the Tibetan plateau and travel overland from Singapore to England.

Offering to The Spiritual Guide in a lofty gompa perched above the natural fort of Dongwan valley, weekly trips to Shangri La's unpredictable shower rooms, keeping the cows out of the bins, scaling sacred Mount Shika, haggling for pu-er in the tea markets of Kunming and the nightly wonder of the milky way - possibly as far as it's possible to get from the subway at rush hour....

The main contributors are Michelle (also widely known as "The Boss") and David with bits and pieces from San San and Jon Jon. We hope you enjoy and look forward to your comments.

Michmister: Owned by a French guy who married a local beauty. A very comfortable place. Toilet and showers are modern. Rooms are spacious. The view was fantastic. Altogether, there were 4 rooms with ensuites, 4 room with common toilets. Price are between RMB80 to RMB 180. It was wooden structure. During summer, it was cool. Expect it to be cold in the winter. Near the old town shopping but not in it.
