Guen Bayug

[Winter Snowstorm]

Since we've been back, we have slowly become accustomed back to the cold of Bhutan and the grumbling has mostly been subdued. Emily has returned back to the hospital and I have been working on things at RTC. Two weeks ago, I was promoted to Program Leader of the Sociology and Political Science Department after our previous PL suddenly decided not to come back to Bhutan. This has meant some extra work, of course, but I don't think it will be too bad once the semester is underway.

One thing that makes Winter more tolerable is the beauty and serenity of fresh snow. Last weekend we got just that: a rare big snowstorm in this part of Bhutan (the biggest in at least 7-10 years). It was fun to watch everyone's facebook posts roll in with pictures of enjoying the snow from here on campus to those in Thimphu.

Here's a few of my own pictures from that weekend:
