This hasnt deterred him or diluted his unconditional love for the Himalaya though. A Berkeley, California graduate, GP is a bit of a conflicted soul who wears an aura of calm. He secretly hopes that not too many people come to the Himalaya even while he writes books on it and prays for them to become bestsellers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tranquebar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45872807805126,"sku":"DADAX9360453250","price":6.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/9389\/1014\/files\/71P7Q_bmvtL.jpg?v=1779526164","url":"https:\/\/ergodemedia.com\/products\/the-land-of-flying-lamas-other-real-travel-stories-from-the-indian-himalaya","provider":"Ergodemedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
