Description
Majestic, snow-capped mountains that reach to the sky, sacred sky burials, the sounds and smells of bustling markets and streets, the jangle of foreign languages, yak burgers, yak butter tea, Buddhist temples and monasteries, the influence of the exiled Dalai Lama, the presence of Chinese soldiers...
None of it was like the small town in Texas where she was from. When Meredith McLeod-Dunton decided to get away from her life in America, she decided to really get away. Tibet was like nowhere else she'd ever been. Over the course of three years teaching ESL classes, Meredith would immerse herself in this strange, mystical, wonderful world, experiencing the liberation that only travel can bring to a soul, and learning much about herself in the process.
Meredith's days were full of intrigue and wonder, and even imaginings conjured up by the magic of the land. With humor and lessons enough for a lifetime, Then Came Tibet is the remarkable story of a woman in the prime of her life jumping into a life-changing experience, traveling to a foreign world that she would ultimately leave, but that would never leave her.
