... Argentinos, una Francesa de 60 años juntos en un cuarto de hostel en la frontera India-Nepal. Qué manera de reírnos. Cuando entramos al cuarto esperábamos ver varias camas, pero adivinen&#8230; Era una sola cama grande para los tres, que momento! Pero lo tomamos con gracia y decidimos que yo dormía en la punta, Viole en el medio y Martine en la otra punta (vean las fotos que tenemos una los 3 en el cuarto).<br><br> A la 6:30 de la mañana siguiente estábamos en la ...

... Thamel and as a result really is hectic with a large increase in street hassle. After the morning we decided on a cat-nap at the hotel, though no sooner had our heads hit the pillow then some pounding building work started nearby! So off we headed for a curry that was once again the mildest on offer yet dangerously close to my threshold and washed down with some vintage coke. <br><br>The afternoon was spent ...

Sorry for the delay. From when we flew in to Nepal, until now, its been a mad rush and then the Internet in the Everest region is spotty and expensive. I wrote down all everything in my journal and will be transferring it over to this site as soon as I can. Anyway... When we were leaving Nepal, our passports with were supposed to be back from the Vietnam Embassy at 7:30am and we had a shuttle to the airport at 8. So guess which ...

... 45 children for three hours with no break and no preparation. Let's just say ' heads and shoulders, knees and toes' came in very handy!<br>It is now the festival of Diwhali so the kids are off school so I go and play with them at the orphanage. I will only have saturday afternoon off so it is very tiring what with the cycling in the baking sun too.<br>It is a bizarre journey to work as I pass elephants, camels, buffalo, ducks, goats, cows on my way. Everyone waves at me and ...

... it seems. To begin with this particular taxi driver wanted to take me to and from Patan and wait whilst I looked around. He offered this for 900nrp and eventually came down to 600nrp. However, I told him that I had no idea how long I would be and just wanted him to drop me and leave me for 200nrp. As I started to walk away he agreed, at least I thought he agreed!!! He dropped me by Durbar Square in Patan and I handed over 200nrp at which point he said that it was 300nrp ...

... come with me now. by the way, these five guys want to take your rucksack and put it in the boot, and you have to tip them."<br>eventually, we got in the car and proceeded down the narrow and dangerously crowded streets, towards thamel.<br>thamel is unlike anything i have ever experienced. all the streets are 10 feet wide, and the 5 storey buildings lining them look strange and precarious, with thousands of posters and telephone wires suspended between them ...

... don't bother me but he was worried that when he opens the resort, they will disturb the tourists.<br><br>With a concerned look on his face he tells me that, "When the foreigners come, we kill all the roosters." He said it in such a matter of fact way that I couldn't stop laughing. Poor bloody roosters. If they'd just shut the &amp;^%$ up, they'd be spared. Lol.<br><br>I did mention that he may need to set up some "facilities." Just a minor upgrade, since his set up is already ...

... care for themselves. Not to mention the accidents that need to be cleaned up in the beds, on the people, the floors and in the bathroom. I just thank god that they didn't ask me to help with that.<br> <br>I took a few pictures today as I was leaving, but I didn't capture my favourite little man. He had disappeared by the time we were all finished working. He was so cute but he will have to remain in memory only. <br><br>After that, I went ...

... for now and can't afford to buy up big when i'm just starting out. For the business i had a few designs made, bought some leather, felt, hemp, dreamcatchers, fun pixie bits and pieces including hemp wool, brass bells and gemstones for making jewellery. It was a challenge dealing with hard bargaining, monsoonal rains and choosing stock with frequent electricity fall outs in the heat. There was a bit of what i call 'small shop syndrome' happening where the shop ...
