Ethnic Spectrum (Annapurna, Nepal, 2005)

Trekking through Annapurna Circuit is not only to adore the spectrum of natures, flora, and fauna from the lowest elevation to top of Himalayas, but also to observe the spectrum of human beings: race, ethnicity, religion, language. Passing through Manang (3520 m) and up to higher places, the previously predominantly Hindu Aryan people are replaced by Tibetan-like Buddhist people.

Spektrum Etnis (Annapurna, Nepal, 2005)

Melakukan trek melalui Sirkuit Annapurna bukan hanya untuk mengagumi spektrum alam, flora dan fauna dari daerah rendah sampai puncak Himalaya, tetapi juga untuk mengamati spektrum manusia: ras, etnik, agama, bahasa. Setelah melewati Manang (3520 meter) dan semakin tinggi sampai ke puncak, orang-orang Arya penganut Hindu kini sudah digantikan oleh bangsa-bangsa mirip Tibet dan penganut agama Buddha.
