Tashi delek! My name is Ania, a Polish national currently living in Dharamshala. My journey with Tibetan language started during the pandemic when རྒན་ Franziska ལགས་ offered a beginner language course on-line, in the summer of 2020. Since then I have been studying both Colloquial and Classical Tibetan at various institutions: SINI, Rangjung Yeshe Institute in Kathmandu and most recently at the 2-year Lotsawa Rinchen Zangpo Translation Program here in Dharamshala.
At SINI I teach the Classical Tibetan translation class and support Franziska and her team in the Colloquial Tibetan courses.
Outside of studying Tibetan language, I dedicate my time to Dharma studies. You can often find me attending teachings in Tibetan monasteries in India and Nepal. On the weekends I am frequently up in the mountains taking walks or meeting with friends at the local coffee shops.
Wishing you all the best on your Tibetan language journey! 🙂
