Thupten Tsering, Tibetan was born in 1974, graduated from university in India. He has a travelling personality that embodies the spirit of adventure and hard work of our legendary Khampa lados (muleteers). Thupten has ably led trips to the most remote of regions (and often with the most difficult rating) in the Tibetan highlands including Tibet Autonomous Region, Sichuan and Yunnan. Besides being passionate about new experiences and seeing new places, he is always focused on his clients and considers each trip a challenge in delivering service and care in addition to the knowledge of a place and culture. Thupten joined Amazing China travel in 2007. Through hard work and dedication and the opportunities to guide some of the most difficult trips, he has evolved into a guide who can lead and serve no matter how big a group or how difficult the trek. As a second generation born with Lado genes and instincts, Thupten is in his comfort zone when he is in the wilderness. Besides being a doer, he is never shy and can launch himself into a Bollywood ballad anytime (at the end of a high pass or after a good dinner in the wilderness) to express a sentimental side to the Lado spirit. As if by fate, Thupten recently married Amo, a Mekong girl he met on one of his Khawa karpo treks. He and Amo live in Gyalthang and have a four-year old son.
