activity week.
christina, myself and lorenz (an austrian chemistry teacher) took a group of 13 students off into the mountains this last week for "activity week". it was a great time, a challenging time... hard to describe, so hopefully pictures will do.
this was the home for a potatoe farmer, a lot of our first day was up through terraced farms, mainly potatoes at this time of year.
this was where we camped on our first night hiking, a pasture at around 10,000ft. absolutely beautiful, shepherd huts, mountain streams, the himalayan peak of banderpunch right in our face
that's it for climbing... all downhill from here
a group of nomad huts, empty now, but amazing nonetheless. it felt like we were walking through a museum
gourmet mac and cheese
the journey home

Hey guys,
I can't wait to come and visit....although realistically, it will probably be next year!
I am so glad that everything is going well and that you are able to soak up the beauty all around you!
Thinking about you often....
