Hi Erlend

I thought you might be interested.

The best thing about having an empire is that we made everyone speak English.
I travelled extensively in the western Himalaya in 2004 and had no language problems.
The only area where there is likely to be any dificulty is Arunachal Pradesh as the border with China (Tibet) is disputed, but permits can be obtained. This is the least explored area, which also borders Myanmar (Burma)

I will PM you at the weekend with a bit more detail.

Kev
