Bhutan does seem a bit unreal at times. Hardly anybody in the U.S. knows where it is. I have friends who still think the entire country is a figment of my imagination. When I was getting ready to move there, and I told people I was going to work in Bhutan, they’d inevitably ask, “Where’s Butane?”It is near Africa,” I’d answer, to throw them off the trail. “It’s where all the disposable lighters come from.”They’d nod in understanding.
