Ben, myself, and 5 other yogis and yoginis spent the day at the Namdroling Monastery in the Bylakupee area (an area of 20 villages). This is the biggest Tibetan settlement outside of Tibet. Amazing, powerful buildings depicting thousands of tales on the inner walls. Incredible buddhas, the softest grass I've ever felt (seriously), and a footbag session where I sent a micro-monk away with a free Freedom Footbag. My friend, Anna, was taking pictures of a classroom inside and they basically ended up swarming her in excitement to see themselves on her camera. I've never seen anything like that. Simply incredible.
I'm a Front End Web Developer who kicks ass at CSS, is soaking in as much CSS3 & HTML5 as possible, and can write a mean jQuery line or 500. When not hunched over a glowing screen, I'm taking photos, teaching Ashtanga Yoga, or doing something outside so I don't feel so bad about loving technology so much.
