Today I leave India but although I awake early I feel that if I have a late breakfast at 9.30 with some biscuits and sweets I have with me I can last until I arrive at the hotel in Kathmandu. At 9AM I receive a phone call to say my transport to the airport is here but I have not finished packing or had breakfast and it is too early as my flight goes late afternoon. I then go and have breakfast on the terrace again and go back to my room. At this point I decided to check what time my flight go...

Early morning sees us once again sitting in the dinning room waiting news of the flights from Kathmandu. My porter returned back to Namche Bazaar yesterday so one of the others will take my bag as they are meeting passengers from the flight today. It is a fairly short walk around to the airport entrance. Again we have to go through baggage weigh in and excess luggage dues. We had none to pay , well we had eaten all the oranges and apples we carried on our flight up, so we then proceed to the ...

At nine oclock ,following a decent breakfast for once ,( you know bacon tomatoes, sausages, toast and tea) I waited in the lobby for my guide for today. I am going to see the area around Patan. We set off for Patan driving through dusty roads ( if you can call them that) and having visited the religious sites last year see a totally different view of Nepal. The fields we pass are gren with the crops growing in the fields but the houses are old and the bricks are decaying and need repairing. S...

As we near Doha we are served breakfast ( continental of course) and then we approach the airstrip which looks like it has been built in the middle of the desert but has quite a large built up area. We are taken to the airport lounge for a 3 hour wait for the flight to Kathmandu. It is supposed to have a top rating for duty free shopping ( only if you were looking for gold and jewelry items or cigaretes) and as I am just passing through I have a look round ( no postcards worth buying ) so I g...
Doha to Kathmandu, Nepal helenseims
I've made it to Kathmandu and I'm going to try and recap the last week and a half. This trip has been so amazing. Samuel and I had an amazing time together and that is all there is to it. I had even written in my journal that I wanted to meet and be friends with an Isreali before my trip was done (seeing as the Isrealis I had met until then were very stand-offish). The next day I met Samuel and the rest was Goan history. The day after his pure drug induced night scare we hit the relaxing hard...

... going to Chitwan this week for his annual wild boar roast and has offered to take me to Chitwan and to the roast. Well, all right then. All work and no play makes Joanna a dull gal so Friday, if all goes well, I will eat real wild boar, go canoing in crocodile infested waters, see endangered one horned rhinos and ride some elephants through the jungles and in desert like temperatures. This will be great because after 3 days, it will be back to work, legal ...

... the basics. <br><br>When she first moved to this area, she saw all these children sitting in dusty, hot and dark cotton factories and street restaurants while there parents worked there from 9-5. These children just sat there all day with nothing to do and with no real supervision. <br><br>Meera and all her friends fund raised and donated 10,000 r each and put it in the bank. Then they rented a large house and just did it.<br> <br>In it's eleventh year, they now ...

... by Buddhist communities throughout the world. <br><br>A statue of a Buddha is called in Sanskrit a "Buddharupa," meaning 'the form of an Enlightened One'. Buddhists have used such images for thousands of years to show how the Truth can be found within oneself through the practice of meditation and spiritual training. Thus, a statue of Shakyamuni does more than commemorate an historical figure, it is a reminder of the spiritual potential inherent within all of us to awaken to ...

... burning logs and ash into the river. The whole thing takes about 30 minutes. And the ghat is quickly occupied with the next body. <br><br>On the left side of the river are ghats for royalty and the hospice. When a person goes to the hospice and it seems death is very near, they are laid out by the river for some ceremonies that I don't know too much about. But, if you happen to die during these ceremonies, it is considered very lucky for you and for your ...

... would appear around a bend in the trail. If they were going up then we would have to stand aside, backs to the wall, and let the beasts pass, which could take some time. If they were coming down then the same procedure applied but you would have far less time to think about it as they sometimes appeared at a gallop. As I had read on a 'Dangers' notice in the ACAP office in Pokhara, it is not unknown for donkeys to knock people off paths whereupon they fall several ...
