Stories: Tim Ward. Hitchhiking in Tibet.

We interview Tim and read his story about traveling through Tibet on a back of a truck.

Tim Ward is the author Mature Flâneur: Slow Travels Through Portugal, France, Italy and Norway, and 11 other books.

Tim is a lifelong traveler. He spent six months in Asia, including two visits to Tibet and a three-month stay in a Tibetan Monastery in the Indian Himalayas.

Tim remains engaged in Tibetan issues to this day and is a member of the executive board of Machik—an NGO led by Tibetans from outside Tibet who work with Tibetans inside Tibet, fostering education and social innovation. (www.machik.org).
