Meet Katy and Moge, two Californians about to make their first journey to Tibet. Follow in their footsteps from the moment they figure out their backpacks are too small to their final farewells from the beautiful city of Lhasa. Armed with cameras and a sense of humor, Katy and Moge brave bumpy roads and oxygen-deprivation to visit several of Tibet’s most breathtaking monasteries, temples and palaces– while encountering a colorful cast of characters, from playful Buddhist monks and beer-drinking folk dancers to the friendly hosts of an afternoon tea. Each day sheds new light on Tibetan society and culture in a way that challenges their assumptions.
