Pretty light coming through the clouds yesterday evening, on my last night in Paro. 14,000 feet high on #chelelapass. Goodbye Bhutan, it's been a great few weeks. With each trip I meet more wonderful people, get to work with more students and gain a deeper understanding of this beautiful culture. I am so grateful to have had a chance to come back. Until next time, #bhutan. #ig_bhutan #mountainsandvalleys #himalayas

Today at Changangkha Monastery. Built in the 12th century, it's the oldest temple in Thimphu, set on a ridge looking over Thimphu City. #changangkha #monastery #temple #thimphu #prayer #bhutan

Loving the lush and beautifully green landscapes here. The past two times I've been it was the dead of winter and we were all huddling around space heaters and drinking gobs of hot tea. Okay, we're still drinking lots of tea but it's not because it's bitter cold. Rice fields in Paro Valley, Bhutan. #latergram #bhutan #ricefields #landscape #beauty #nature

Goodbye Beijing. It has been a great five weeks. I've learned so much and had a unique opportunity to practice and hone both my video journalism and foreign reporting skills. Thanks @jkessel for being such a dedicated mentor and helping me put together my story. Stay tuned for the final piece, which is now in the final editing stage. Bangkok bound this morning, en route to Bhutan! #videojournalism #beijing #china #airportbound #journeyon #intransit
