When Chen Jing went to Tibet for the first time in 2005, she trekked through Motuo, a county in southeast Tibet with no highway or roads linking it to the outside world. She encountered many challenges on the way, but the rewards were worth it - memories of the beautiful landscape, and friendship with travel companions and local Tibetans.

Jia Liming first went to Tibet as a backpacker in 1997. Now she provides travel services to tourists. Soft backpacking is a way of traveling that she and her colleagues advocate – an alternative that provides a more comfortable option for elder tourists and people who prefer a little more comfort.
