In 2002, I traveled across the Himalayas, from Ladakh in India through Nepal and Tibet, before returning to India through West Bengal and Sikkim.
At the age of 23, I was able to fulfill a childhood ambition to visit this area of the world, inspired by monks, mountains and monasteries.
These photos are a selection from the hundreds of slides I shot during the six-month trip. I have since had them scanned into digital format for online and print use.
