I first met Khenpo Pema Wangdak in 1986, when I was looking for a teacher to help me learn Tibetan for a journey I took the following year.
Although I did learn some basic phrases (including “You are pretty” and “I am from the United States”), I discovered that Tibetan is an extremely difficult language to learn, at least for me.
But I always enjoyed visiting Khenpo Pema in New York, where since 1989 he has been director of the Vikramasila Foundation, a nonprofit charitable organization dedicated to bringing meditation and the wisdom of the Buddha to the West.

Delaware is a pretty diminutive state (one nickname is even âThe Small Wonderâ). To Delawareans, thatâs a good thing. You can zip between the stateâs high spots pretty easily. In some areas, everyone seems to know everyone else. And thatâs why the saying âEveryone Knows Joeâ is not surprising. President Biden is a friendly guy he has always seemed to enjoy his stateâs close-knit neighborhoods while grabbing a burger or a slice and chatting with folks. You might even run into President Joe at his favorite haunts.
Many people who live in Wilmington are proud that the President has been bringing more attention and more visitors to their city, which is actually filled with beautiful outdoor spaces, the arts, and a vibrant food scene. Here are some of the places in Wilmington and beyond that are the Presidentâs favorites.
