Traditionally dressed Amdo Tibetans must be among the most colourful people around - and you can see lots of them in villages in Qinghai province.
Quite soon, I was invited home by a young guy who was pretty fluent in English, and he could tell me more about his life in the village. Before I knew it, I was sipping Tibetan tea (the easier to digest milk tea), met his parents and some friends, and was showed his room. A great guy, and I was sorry he couldn't travel with me to tell me more about his native land. After travelling south - and I met more Amdo Tibetans during my trip there - I was again struck by the beauty of the Tibetans in Mato/Maduo. The weather was brighter, and especially in the late afternoon the colours of the people's dresses was strikingly awesome. When the moment came to leave for Xining again, I was not at all ready to go and had wanted to stay in this pleasant town with its beautiful inhabitants.
