I'd be interested in seeing anything nice you find. And yes I also really enjoy looking through the photo albums of bloggers from eastern Tibet. The nature is incredibly beautiful, most people think of Tibet as all snow capped himalayan peaks, but eastern Tibet (Kham) is covered in vast grasslands with all sorts of nature.

Sometimes, maybe one if three bloggers I find, are actually Khampas (eastern Tibetans) using Chinese. Some Tibetans in Kham speak Chinese either as a second or as their main language. But from what I have seen that doesn't necessarily stop them from keeping their cultural identity.

Here's a music video with plenty of footage of local ladies in their finery at the Yushu festival costume display. Or is it secretly a Coral and Amber weightlifting competition?
