For two years, Derick lived and worked with Tibetan people in Nepal. During that time, he traveled for weeks at a time to remote villages in the Himalayas. Occasionally he had the opportunity to travel to other places like India, Japan, Thailand, Europe and Israel. Here is a compilation of pictures from some of those travels.

Derick’s bloody feet after trekking. Leeches are bad in the Himalayans, especially when trekking during rainy season.
Derick ran both a marathon and half-marathon while in Nepal. This was after the half-marathon.
