Description: where people grow potatoes, herd yaks. There aren't a lot of other options for making an income besides the mountain. Running a tea-house, running a lodge those are kind of the dreams. A lot of people save up their money to start up a tea-house so they won't have to keep working in the mountains. Life is really quiet and slow in these places.

In the past, I have approximated the look of monkey fur and yak hair with human hair because it's inexpensive, and it lasts a long time.

I fed my yak on my spare Cadbury chocolate 21,0000ft up Everest. It was a blonde, very sweet female yak. I made it my pet after that.

The rush of a herd of bellowing yaks at a wild gallop, waving their huge tails, is a grand sight.
