INTRODUCTION

Bhutan is a small country around about the size of the South Island of New
Zealand. In miles that is 18,000 square miles. The population is 1,200,000. The
capital of Bhutan is Thimphu. The spoken language are Dzongkha, Nepali and
English. Since Bhutan is basically on the other side of the world it has
 different seasons. The seasons are December to February is winter, March to May
is Spring, June to August is Summer, September to November is Autumn and the
tourist season runs from March to November.



My Grandad lived and worked in Bhutan. Grandad work for National Airline Druk
Air or Royal Bhutan Airlines for 4 years. His job was to write and implement
safety standards for the Airline and its Aeroplanes. At the time they had only
one plane and before he was employed there the track record for safety was very
very poor. Nanny and Grandad lived in Paro which is the town by the airport.
Which meant that Grandad walked to work.

Punakha Dzong, at the confluence of two rivers, was the venue of the Fifth King
of Bhutans Royal Wedding.

Nanny ended up also being employed by the Airline as the Catering Manager. The
reasoning of this was because prior to her working there the airline had poor
hygiene standards and on many flights the airline had problems with food
poisoning!!!

My mum lived there also for 1 year when she was 16 years old whilst she did
correspondence school from New Zealand. My mum tells me it was the most amazing
country and experience of her life.

This is a photo of Grandad (white haired man in the middle) and Nanny (black
haired lady in white trousers at front) with some of their work mates at the
Airport.
