Also, as a matter of interest, the background music to the video was created by a group of Spanish Tibetan Monks called Buddhist Monks of Sakya Tashi Ling. The cuts are from their album "My Spirit Flies To You." The following videos show scenes from the monastery: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLcUtawU-4Q http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohpez_Oj2XQ When I saw this clip, I did not click on the music link, but the first thing I thought when I saw the countryside being flown over was, "Wow! That looks like Sitges." As it turns out, it could be. The Sakya Tashi Ling monastery is a Buddhist retreat in the Garraf National Park, in the hills above Sitges. It is possible that the falconer is from this area as well.
