Pink Buddha is the umbrella for stories that stem from volunteering, traveling, meditating, and teaching. Think of this website as your dose of arm-chair travel with generous lashings of irreverence and laughing at inappropriate moments.

This website will appeal to those who long to break through perceived boundaries and discover new countries and communities. If this resonates with you, welcome!
