A Memoir of Eastern Bhutan.

Ken Haigh brings us tantalizingly close to his own vision of longing for a place, a people, a time, as he revisits those all-too-fleeting years as a young school teacher in the remote Himalayan village of Khaling, Bhutan. These experiences in an exotic country will leave you yearning for ancient Buddhist temples, winding mountain trails, and a simpler way of life. This memoir will captivate the vicarious traveler in each of us.

Ken Haigh is a graduate of Queen’s University and of Western Ontario, where he studied English literature, and library science. In 1987-89, he taught for two Valley in Eastern Bhutan.
