'Namaste, welcome to Nepal' in our hands as often as a friendly greeting with a visa officer how much we are coming into a place we are not aware. 60s to stay in Kathmandu airport: Officer of the clothes, the shops, from fans, baggage cars, mixed with a weird seniority tedium.
Out-doors in front of the tourist-dealer starts the game. Those who want to take you to the hotel, to shuttle employees to drive, not necessarily the ones in my taxi, how are you where you are what you from'lar, is a bass does not come to man. We did not like the whiteness of snow also here in Europe on our own is trouble.
Nepal is poor, poor country. Half of the country's thirty million people are living under one dollar a day. Has taken out corruption, the government is changing constantly, as if to protest the functioning of democracy lie not enough men to. Streets are filthy, it smells everywhere, people walking around with masks on air pollution. Köşebaşlarında established makeshift butcher, construction inside the dough Fry sellers, beggars, each hand at any moment launch could motorcycles, 24 hours continuously, the dog barks, and horn sounds Kathmandu'da daily life indispensables. Meanwhile, morning, afternoon, evening daily is at least 7-8 hours power cut. To mind as a mystical land of peace settled in Kathmandu, in fact, a classic third-world metropolis textbox ghetto.
Kathmandu'ya the tourists do not usually have this turmoil because so very muhattap cüzzi amounts can be very comfortable holiday. 8 dollars, even in the center can be a double room with bathroom, three pounds can eat a great meal. Most of the tour comes just a walk away from the city is already set, trekking, rafting, kayaking, parasailing going.
We did not do anything. National parks, mountains, lakes, but first we want to go where we want to understand what was happening one. We both rush yet. The best part of a long trip out, have to plan everything in minutes, not hours. The hard part is when something like that and less of the money will not also be unable to move, always trying to be careful how much you spend, because they spend less than you can see a country with every penny to calculate.
My favorite things to do while traveling version of the most hardcore here is our chance, the family's home in a Nepalese are two days as guests. Kathmandu'nun a slum in the heart (or normal, because all the houses here as such), three-story house. Each floor has rooms, each room has a family stays. Toilets, bathrooms partner. Toilets, consisting of a hole, for years, not clean, no water. A sink in the bathroom across the back neck and a single tap, no shower or something. Kitchen, plaster, when it comes to the mercy of the landlord allowed to flow a few hours devoted to the well water pots, place them in the hold of cockroaches. They peeled, vegetables, shells and insects are associated. This is also the home of his father and nine-year-old patient at Robin's room. An iron bunk, on the bed to intentions quilt without mothy, pireli a quilt, and the bed of social security funds and not for maybe a simple infections him bedridden into a disease suffering, unemployed, eight children how to proceed would think that a poor father.
Two sisters in the other room, sweet world: İsuri and Menuka, ages 21 and 25 Both are reading sociology at the university. In the remaining time for laundry, the dishes are in bulk water, and morning and evening in bed by 9 to 5, get up and do yoga to the monastery, came home with a guest from the far corners of the world, are interested in them. (See couchsurfing)
Two pieces of wood in the room sometimes distort the intention of them to bed in a blanket, a tiny closet and a table. Life in the villages and they do not see another place Kathmandu'dan not realize that they are poor. Circulating in the walls where insects, drought, elektriksizlik, no air pollution, continuous rice-potato-eating, do not put them. In the absence of that brilliant eye. Otherwise they do not know of them, for we normally think.
This journey while varieties all difficulties karşılacağımızı knew myself hazılıyordum or more arrives five square meters in the electrical room, four people to sleep, or the board all over the sink because uyuyamak, insects into the escape she dresses with no silence without dogs listening to the lives of people think and make comparisons to pee comes when the mouse is also strictly are afraid it until morning in the toilet go fail, shame, lest the aforementioned kitchen conditions, cooked food to eat to stay, people with their hands while involuntarily disgusted and look fail, then the self also loathe to judge you for the bottom of an invisible container from the fuzzy with a bowl of water wash, to brush their teeth and wondering all this time you may have to try not to crash to the host ...
On the other hand in their lives no olives have not eaten for people olive flavor to necessarily delight offered to host otherwise Pitchers Nine Nepal Edition sweetness made the waters to open, the father of calcium sandozu try and then the "good will" and placebo influence hakkaten man it was good, the fact of the man reports to look at what the problem is to understand and simple antibiotic treatment that work resolved to tell bugging of the joy of living, adjacent to the village from the relatives to meet, more remote ON 2 word booklet even talk on the phone, and mutual laughter to enter Robin's school went without connection door windowless state school what if To see one of the fiddle and the teacher in a class with 20 minutes to teach, to teach English song, jest to pass the brush to laugh at the kid, not a direct experience and was happy.
Extensive experience in life is always double-sided, this 4-day challenges for me, happiness, surprise it happened to. Baljić away from children, looking lost in the streets, by piling, the rupee-tl to accounts, diarrhea, constipation as one of the next day for a while, trying to Kathmandu'dayız planning. After the mountains, the village going to continue to explore in depth Nepal.
