Pilgrim on the Kora's by frenchfrog

Shigatse - China, Tibet It was avery sweet old lady that wanted me to come with her. I was trying to speak to her, but she could not understand me. When I pointed to the phrase book she made sign to say she did not know how to read. Later the guide told me that in Tibet around 60% of the population over 50 do not know how to read. That puts my embarrassment level much higher now!
