Houseboat on the Ganges & A Room in Kathmandu

Marilyn Stablein

4/5 ( ratings)

In 1966, nineteen-year-old Marilyn Stablein took what was supposed to be a year off from college to travel in Asia. She stayed for seven years. In those seven years, she explored Eastern cultures, art, and religions; lived on a houseboat; met the Dali Lama; and took advantage of opportunities few Westerners had been allowed. She also experienced dramatic growth and change in her personal life. This compilation of letters written home to her parents in California during that time describes her travels, her studies, and her experiences, mostly in India and Nepal.
