🩺➡️📖 'I just wish my name will be discovered, and the stories I document will prove useful in studying Tibetan society,' says Phuntsok Drolma, a Fudan University medicine graduate who traded hospitals for hashtags to spotlight everyday life in Tibet.
Born into a family of doctors, Drolma took a path less traveled after earning her clinical medicine degree. Instead of a white coat, she chose a laptop—returning to Lhasa as a freelance writer to amplify voices often unheard beyond the Himalayas. 💻🏔️
For six years, she's run a wildly popular WeChat platform sharing over 100 stories of Tibetan farmers, artists, and families. Think of it as a literary Netflix docuseries—but with yak-butter tea vibes and zero subscription fees. 🧈🍵
Her work isn't just viral content—it's a digital bridge connecting global Gen-Z readers to Tibet's traditions. 'We see dance festivals through her words, not stereotypes,' one fan commented. By spotlighting ordinary lives, Drolma’s creating what academics call a 'cultural API'—making Tibetan society clickable, relatable, and endlessly fascinating. 🌐✨
