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.

On our way again

Passports brimming with visas, a bit of USD cash for emergencies and four bus tickets to Hat Yai in hand we are almost ready to head off at last. Over the last week or so we have been treated to a whole bunch of excellent lunches, dinners and expensive Starbucks coffee's as our friends and family have wished us well and sent us on our our way. All that is left is to throw a few things in our backpacks, clean and lock the flat and get ourselves down to Beach Rd and were off.

Thank you to everyone in Singapore for taking such good care of us, we will keep blogging if you are curious what we are up to and we will see you in the summer. To our friends and family in Thailand, China and UK - looking forward to seeing you soon.
