About the Author:
Hannue has travelled across over 70 countries. She began travelling in Tibet when the trip from Golmud to Lhasa took 3 days, when travellers smiled breathlessly at each other for having made it there, got together to visit monasteries, watch sunsets on roofs above 3000 metres . . .
