Tibet has always made me think of barren landscapes, of cold, of snow-capped mountains. On my way down through Amdo and Kham territory, these images actually came to life. It was early April and therefore still cold, when I left Xining heading South. Quite soon, I saw small streams lying like frozen crusts in the landscape. After passing through rolling lands, we reached the foot of the Tibetan highlands. As we climbed, the last, little vegetation we had seen, disappeared - I would not see it again until I returned to Xining.
