Robert in Tibet.


Introduction.

This October Rob finally managed to get his additional paperwork together to enter a place he had always wanted to visit - Tibet. Tibet and Xinjiang remain the two main regions which foreigners cannot easily visit in China (indeed, people with diplomatic passports cannot currently enter - one of the few times in life when holding a diplomatic passport may be a disadvantage!), so Rob was particularly glad to get this trip under his belt. .

In his 30s his inner teacher surfaced, leading him to eventually find work teaching History and Economics in an international school in Beijing. where he has been based for the last 3 years.
