This is me, Nicolas, and one of my teachers, Gen Lobsang in class. I met Nicolas in Boudha through my friend Erick, who some of you Chagdud Gompa types might know. We became fast friends, having a lot in common even beyond our interest in Tibetan, and hung out together constantly, studying eating lots of mangos, pancakes, and Kurekure together, and watching many movies. Gen Lobsang is my tutor outside of class, and has been teaching me kyug yig, a type of Tibetan handwriting that's very beautiful.
