Reviews / Votes
'Excellent - Niema Ash really understands the situation facing Tibet and conveys it with remarkable perception.' Tenzin Choegyal (brother of The Dalai Lama) 'Mesmerising.' The Sunday Times 'Almost surreal in its assemblage of improbably colliding facts - a marriage of the bizarre and the beautiful that chills the spine as often as it warms the heart.'

Person
At the age of 14 Niema embarked on a trip from New York; from then on she knew that travel was a driving passion, fundamental to her existence. Leaving home an adolescent, she returned an adult with a husband, a baby and a career. Now, unmarried with a grown-up daughter, Niema still has a passion for adventure and discovery.
