Cute and Crazy Elephants
We couldn’t resist heading down to Chitwan National Park for a couple of days before we left Nepal. We had a look around at the various options, and decided to book a 2 night package ($75) through Dawn in Nepal, who were really friendly and professional. Everywhere offered pretty much the same thing, including transport there and back, …
Annapurna Base Camp, Nepal
... on the roads that have no crash barriers because they have been taken out when cars have gone over the edge! The next day was slightly cloudy but didn't stop us from going paragliding as a treat for my birthday. We thought we walked up a mountain so why not jump off one!! It was awesome, we rose high into the clouds (you actually cant see a thing when you are in clouds) and followed a black eagle for a while.

... me demandent de lire dans leur main... Au secours !!! Voilà la fin de la discussion de groupe. J'ai décidé de ne pas aller au cous de l'après-midi, mais me voilà prise dans une discussion avec Patrick. Il me conseille d'aller à Dharamsala, en Inde, car c'est là que se trouvent les astrologues tibétains. Prise dans la conversation, je prends le chemin de la salle de cours... Et voilà comment j'ai été sauvée par une sangsue qui m'a fait prendre conscience de la raison ...
