Potalaworld - Petersburg, NY
Welcome to Potalaworld. We’re Andrew Failes and Rachel Park, from Glasgow, Scotland and Massachusetts respectively. We’ve been bringing things back from Asia since an eventful trip overland to India in 1975 long before Lonely Planet guidebooks plotted the way. Every stop was full of the unexpected --sometimes seemingly miraculous and sometimes, in retrospect, probably quite dangerous. You just had to wing it on dilapidated buses and dusty roads through Turkey, Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan and over the Khyber Pass. Six weeks later we were in India, considerably thinner and a bit wiser...

Now, 22 years later, Rachel is just back from Tibet for the 4th time. Andrew travels in Thailand every year with side trips to Laos and Burma. Together we wanted to bring a little of what is out there back with us, especially in the case of Tibet which, in order to survive, needs the help and interest of the outside world. We also would like people to go there and, after all these years, have a lot of travel information that we can share...
