Meeting with great friends in Thimphu

Together two days ago in Thimphu with members of the Hungary-Bhutan Friendship Society and Kezang D. Wangmo, MP, Karma Tshering, filmmaker, Kunzang Wangmo, GM of Terma Linca Hotel, and Thinley Wangchuk, owner of Namdruk Bhutan Travel. Thank you for the great night!

My new book on Bhutan will be published late September

My very first book has been written in Hungarian on the Kingdom of Bhutan: information for travellers, brief history of Bhutan with key historical figures and Buddhist masters such as Guru Rinpoche, the Shabdrung, Pema Lingpa, Drukpa Kunley; the Wangchuck dynasty, modernisation, festivals, recipes, personal stories of my journeys, interviews with Bhutanese, dreams, poems, and 32 pages of colour pictures.

This is the first comprehensive book about Bhutan ever published in Hungary.

Bhutan cannot be considered as a seismic gap or a relatively safe place anymore.

Interview with a Hungarian seismologist  from the Swiss Seismological Service who has recently studied Bhutan. Very important advices in terms of educating people and changing the way houses are built in Bhutan.
