Bhutan: Buddhism butter tea and the secrets of a country with national happiness
Bhutan is a country that's been largely unspoiled by tourism, which is why it's high on our list of must-visit suggestions.
During this conversation with Vivek, you'll hear all about His Majesty Jigme Singye Wangchuck, and how he's the inspiration for the way Bhutan is. It's written into law that the country has to do everything possible to make its people happy. You'll learn all about the Gross National Happiness measure and its four parameters of happiness.
If you're passionate about sustainability you'll definitely be fascinated to hear about all the things the country is doing to protect its nature.
Foodies will definitely be listening closely, with a starring role from Ema Datshi and butter tea.
And that's not to mention the monks, meditation, hot stone baths, archery, and the unique types of accommodation on offer.
We don't doubt that once you've listened to this wonderful journey through the delights of Bhutan, you'll want to book your stay in one of the boutique hotels and get prepared for your hot stone bath.
When that happens, you can get in touch directly with Lizzie, here.

Reflecting on what we've learned: a look back at Mind.Body.Travel. in 2020 and looking ahead to 2021
What an incredible year it's been for the Mind. Body. Travel. team.
Before we dive head first into this year's fantastic guests, we wanted to put into practice what we preach.
Take a moment, reflect, and enjoy the moment.
We decided to revisit our previous episodes.
You'll hear Ranveigg from Obeo Travel telling us all about her experience trying out paddle-boarding! We cannot urge you enough to go back and listen to the episode in full.
You'll learn all about the Northern Lights, why rotten food in this country isn't a bad thing, and how you'll probably want to experience at least one 'black death' - or as the locals call it, "Brennivin"!
You'll also hear excerpts from:
Kate Mackay, the snow boarding mummy.
Jill Robinson telling us all about her encounters with what she expected to be a small yacht, during her pilates trip.
A ladies only 'Wander Woman' trip to India is described by Lee Evanson from Insight Vacations.
And that's not to mention Mel Byers' elephant encounters in Thailand and Vivek's wonderful insights into Bhutan, a place Lizzie and Colin definitely want to visit themselves!
While it's a tough time for all of us right now, and having (at the time of publishing) re-entered national lockdown, we wanted to keep you feeling positive.
If you're new to Mind. Body. Travel, this episode will serve you as a very entertaining and useful preview of what you can expect by going back and listening to our previous episodes.
