Welcome, this is where I get to I tell you a little about myself,
and why i have a website and photographs here. I graduated from
the University of Wisconsin-Madison
in 1999, with a BSc in Natural Resources. It was there, during my
forays into the field, I got into a little
bit of photography.
I also got introduced to the internet (that was in 1995) and learnt
some HTML from student volunteers with Students
Information Technology at one of their free sessions. I had
this website on their server but had to move it when i graduated.
This site has been on tripod.com since about 1999.
I returned home to Bhutan in 1999 and have been working for my
government in our conservation efforts since then and also taking
pictures wherever I go around the country. I also like to design
websites in my free time.
Here are links to some sites I've made.

AHUWC
Armand Hammer United World College. Fostering international peace
and cooperation through education. I spent 2 years at this International
School in New Mexico, USA. Really intense place, lot of fun, lot
of work. A lot of people have gone from IB (international baccalaureate)
to IB (investment banking) from here, while others lead the Socialist
movement to social work.
Here are links to websites of two people I met at AHUWC
- Martin
Laird
The ultimate-frisbee playing, spanish-speaking, physicist turned
med student down under!
- Niraj
The only person I know who's had a teacher come to his dorm room
and pull him out of bed because he didn't show up for class. I
think the link is dead but I still keep it here cos he got woken
up by the English teacher.
