Hello Friends!

I just came back from San Francisco with all of my friends from SFT. I attended the Bay Area Olympics Conference as well as the Team Tibet Fashion Show. It was amazing! I have never seen anything so fun and well organized. Everyone was having fun and had smiles on their faces. From the Ama-la’s and Pa-la’s to the young kids. Thank you to all of the great organizers in the California Bay Area for putting on this great event! Here are clips of it. Enjoy!!!

Love and Freedom
