This fall’s Bhutan trip is already sold out with a wait-list. Nevertheless, if you are interested in such a Tibet House trip, you can join the wait-list anyway and then be first in line for next year’s trips. There will be a few more of them, since Dr. Thurman is on sabbatical in 2007-08. Dates are not yet fixed in stone, but there are likely trips: to Kailash in Tibet in May-June, 2007; to Mongolia in late summer; to Bhutan again in autumn; and to the Buddha’s holy places in India (and possibly beyond) in JanuaryFebruary 2008. Please email or call Geoex to apply for any of these. The trip is co-led by Brent Olson, former Director of Bhutan Programs at Geographic Expeditions. Brent has traveled to Bhutan over 35 times in the last 20 years. Additional Questions?
