Sad to leave, but fun to meet my friend, and later in august I´ll also go to Sweden to catch up time with my family. So I have lots of nice things in front of me..
I have been changing my room, now I live in another Monastery during the night, cos we have something called "Summer retreat" for 45 days in "my" monastery, and during this time, no women are allowed here during night time.
I meet some nice people during my visit here. I also got in contact with some nice school projects in this area. So do you wanna try to do some time as a volunteer teacher I have some to recommend. Besides my super great organisation "Little Lamas", I understand after talking with people I´m luck to get in contact wish such a great, genuine and warm hearted organisation at the first shot! My heart will always tick for them, and all lovely kids here... ohhhhh I´ll miss them!

Small help from many will make a change!
I'm now a member of Dolfo komang Tulku foundation.
They have a primary School in Dolpo but will now get a secondary education to 8 of the students in Kathmandu. In november the new hostel for these 8 students must be ready. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Himalayan-Caravan-Hostel-In-kathmandu/152710938257181
You can see more about the project here. The rent for the rooms will be sponsored by CIDEN Foundation but they need a lot more. I sponsored them with a camera, and now racing money from Sweden to their first Lap top. And with the help of the good hearted Swedes I'm sure they will have their computer this week. But they need lots more.. Beds, blankets, pillows, note books, pens, clothes, shoes, medication, food, etc etc..
Are you interested to help with a donation? Even 10 euro will be a great help!!! Contact me or direct to: komangtulkufondation@gmail.com
I will now start to help them with their website as well. We can all help in different ways.
Your help will make a different!! And in my opinion all kids should have right to an education!
Lots of love & light...

Time is flying...
...to fast.
I can´t believe I have less than 2 weeks more to go!!! uhhhhhh.....
And one week ago Miss Lee left the monastery, this amazing warmhearted funny lady, was only here for some weeks, but I really liked her, and she will be missed of many.
So I want to honor her for her kindness and dedication for all in the monastery with some pictures.
