Himalayas

I have not spent as much time in the Himalayas as I would have liked, but the time I have spent there left a deep impression. Part of my travels in Asia have taken me into this region defined by scale and remoteness, where travel is shaped by altitude, weather, and vast open spaces rather than convenience. My own experiences took me into the wilds of the Tibetan Plateau in search of some of the most elusive wild cats. In these high landscapes, wildlife lives at the edge of visibility, perfectly adapted to cold, wind, and thin air, and encounters demand patience and sustained attention.
