Last August, a chance encounter on a bus in Himachal Pradesh (northern India) led Dave to a school for young Tibetan refugees, where he spent several days photographing the kids and their daily routine. His contact was a young man who walked across the Tibetan-Indian border when he was just five.
Later today American President Obama meets the Dalai Lama for the first time. Dave thought it was a good time to revisit the Tibetan Children's Village. See the slideshow (be sure to click on 'captions') here.
Lovely slideshow, David. Their arts are exquisite.
