you could do that for a long time, with 5000 dollars. Find yourself a nice little cave for a while way up there at the source of the river ganga, smoke chillums with the sadhus and enjoy the view and clean air. badrinath, kedarnath, parvati valley, manali, go see the tibetans in ladakh...
There's a Butoh teacher in Dharamsala i'd like to check out, as well.
