A Shangri La Memory
Sometimes a video is better than a thousand words, and this might be the case. I took this with a photocamera while I was wandering around Zhongdian’s streets. This city is the southeasternmost corner of Tibet and is most commonly know between the Chinese as “Shangri La”. I turned around a corner in the cobbled paved old city, and this is what I found. Sorry for the low quality resolution, but sometimes it’s better to capture the glimpse of a moment, rather than have it just stuck into my head. FREE TIBET!!


I am probably not the most informed nor adapt person to talk about this, but living in China at the moment I seriously want to spend a few lines on this. The tibetan disorders of the past few days have, once again, put China and Tibet under the international spotlight. People are now debating about boycotting the Olyimpics, that same people that in Italy, a few months back, even refused to meet the Dalai Lama during his visit. The same old tired bullshit from the same old rascal politicians that doesn’t surprise nor impress me. And now they talk about boycotting the Games just because the fire of protest is getting closer and closer to their fat asses… this is just utterly revolting.
