However, my image of the monks leading secluded lives was shattered when one of the young monks (aged about 8) came over to me pointed at the AC Milan top I was wearing and said “I think Kaka is over-rated”.

Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture
This weekend we went on another road trip. This time we headed south to Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture. On Saturday night we visited the Grassland area near our hotel. This area is absolutely amazing. The scenery is world-class and the people are very open and friendly. I rode a horse for the first time in the evening we were entertained with local dances whilst we ate dinner. The next morning we visited Labrang Lamasery. This is one of the six major monasteries belonging to the Yellow Sect of Tibetan Buddhism. It was erected in 1709 and is also the largest institute higher learning of Tibetan Buddhism.
