“Tibet”
“Looking around, he saw a landscape of breathtaking beauty. From both sides, spined mountains ran down into a valley of deep green. Straight ahead rose three successive ranges of peaks, each of greater height than its predecessor, and the last poking its peaks right into the belly of the clouds. The clouds were softly contoured cumulus, light blue and cotton white in color. The sun appeared to be closer to the earth than he had ever seen it. Oddly, it made his face hot, while his body shivered under the influence of the cold wind.”
