Day 1: Arriving at Kathmandu

Has been long journey to get to Kathmandu. After rush packing spree started on 25th Dec 08 early morning (00:10am) from Shanghai to Singapore onboard SQ825.

Upon landing at Singapore loaded myself up with, lonely planet guide for nepal/bhutan, some medicines, the new cool canon ixus 980 point-shoot, extra memory cards for my d200 - followed by a trip to burger king and the new butterfly park on T3 (couldnt ...

Day 1: Strolling Thamel & Arranging Trek

Right after finishing my earlier entry, found out that there is a travel desk right behind me. There were couple of folks arraning their trekking...so i quietly listened in.

Boudhanath/Kopan Monastery/Pashupatinath

Well, I am definitely having problems with hotel rooms. When I thought everything was just fine I take a shower and wash my hair. Something really weird happens! My body gets sticky and my hair feels as if it just had varnish or glue poured on it. I can barely get a comb or brush through it. I thought it might be as a result of the overspraying of muskoil I had done in the other hotel room so I didn't overreact. Tonight I tried the shower again and the same thing happened so I decide to go an...
