Just got back from jogging for the first time in over a week, it was great even though jogging in the middle of chinese morning rush hour is quite an experience. 

After a whole day of planning and deliberating, we've decided to go to both nepal and tibet. The train to tibet leaves next thursday( it takes a while to get all the necessary permits). We'll spend five nights in lhasa, after which we will fly to kathmandu. How long we are going to be in kathmandu is not decided. Depending on the weather we either just stay in kathmandu and then fly to south east asia, or we go hiking and see mt everest.
