The biggest architectural fails in history. Architects are responsible for, above all else, ensuring that a building is safe. The architects in today's video failed, and put people's lives at risk.

Thank you to https://www.travelchinatibet.com/ for hosting me on my trip to Tibet!

 

High Altitude Tibetan Food - Today we drove from Lhasa to Yamdrok Lake, where we had the honor to eat at a local family home. At 4,500 meters in elevation, there’s not a lot of plants that grow, and so our meal consisted of Tibetan barley, yak meat, a few green onions, and a radish soup. It was a hearty and warming meal, full of love, and a pleasure to learn more about Tibetan culture. #Tibet #YamdrokLake #streetfood #villagefood

 

Yamdrok Lake, Tibet - First we drove to Yamdrok Lake, and Kambala Pass (4,990 m (16,371 ft) for the viewpoint. The view of Yamdrok Lake for the first time was breathtaking. It’s a sacred lake in Tibet, and the colors of the lake look different depending on season, time of day, or even where you see the lake from. The actual bottom of the lake, on the shore is more like 4,500 Meters in Elevation.

 

High Elevation Tibetan Food - Tsampa (roasted barley) is the staple and main food of the Tibetan diet. It’s nutritious, and grows at a very high elevation. For lunch we had butter tea, barley dumplings with yak meat, radish soup with yak meat, and a type of momo bread which was formed into cone shapes, and fried and steamed in an iron griddle pan. The entire meal was simple, but delicious and very hearty and warming - mainly carbs, and yak. The entire village and setting next to Yamdrok Lake made it even more spectacular.

 

Karola Glacier View - Finally to end this day in Tibet, we continued to Karola Glacier, passing a section that was almost 5,200 meters in elevation. Highest elevation I’ve been to, and the entire drive was unbelievably beautiful.

 

An amazing day, great people, delicious food, and heavenly scenery of Yamdrok Lake.

 

Thank you to Travel China & Tibet (https://www.travelchinatibet.com/), they sponsored my trip to Tibet, and they did an amazing job to cater to the exact things I wanted to do. Highly recommended when you visit Tibet.

PHOTO OF THE DAY

This is one of the most famous images in photographic history.

The first ever X-ray image was taken in 1895 by Wilhelm Röntgen, awarded the first Nobel Prize in Physics, 1901.

The image of his wife Bertha's hand (wedding ring clearly visible) propelled Röntgen into an international celebrity. The medical implications were immediately realised. Röntgen named the discovery X-radiation, or X-rays, after the mathematical term 'X' which denotes something unknown.

🎥 Thailand’s Paradise Island - Koh Surin: https://youtu.be/SnKHJBjIn3I

Koh Surin (หมู่เกาะสุรินทร์) - One of the reasons I was very interested to visit Koh Surin (หมู่เกาะสุรินทร์) island in Thailand is not only because it’s a gorgeous National Park, but also because it’s home to the Moken people - a sea nomadic community - experts of the ocean. So in the afternoon, we headed over to the village on the island, and it was an honor to walk around, and learn about the Moken people and their amazing culture. #Thailand #Andaman #island

 

Moken - or people of the sea - traditionally live in the Andaman sea islands around Thailand and Myanmar. Traditionally, Moken people would live partly from their boats, and partly on ground. But eventually this community settled on Koh Surin, forming a village.

 

One of the amazing things about the Moken is their acute knowledge of the sea. During the devastating tsunami in the Indian ocean in 2004, the elders of this village knew something as different, and they instructed everyone to climb to higher ground. Though the village was destroyed everyone from the village survived. It’s this sense of nature and the world that makes the Moken so special.

 

Though it was a short visit, it was interesting and a privilege to learn a little about the Moken people on Koh Surin (หมู่เกาะสุรินทร์) island.

 

If you haven’t seen my other Koh Surin (หมู่เกาะสุรินทร์) national park island tour, you can watch it here: https://youtu.be/SnKHJBjIn3I

 

Thank you for watching and hope you’re having a fantastic day!
