Last post from Bhutan - Camille Blackford

Kuzu Zangpo (Hello) from Bhutan everyone!!

Camille is a Cultural Anthropology major with a Korean minor. She is an Education Abroad Ambassador. Here is an excerpt of her latest post.

This blog post is about my last couple of weeks in Bhutan! This picture was from a hike to a monastery some of the Bhutanese students took the international students on! In this picture I am wearing the traditional dress of Bhutan for women, called “Kira”. What I am wearing is technically called a “half Kira” and is made up of two jackets (the pink and white jackets), and a long skirt. I hiked all the way to the monastery in this! Despite the fact that the hike was super hard, the Kira was very comfortable to hike in and the view from the monastery made it worth it!
