mun's monologue

Feel the warmth yet? The warmth of the kitchen in the Lama Hotel guesthouse welcomes guests to sit by the fire in the cold mornings and nights. The sustainable living of modern day. We discovered that the guesthouse is powered entirely by solar. University students from South Korea installed the works. You have hot water and electricity. Isn't that great? the owners Mr Lama and wife

happily married on the last day of 2017  Feb 2016 was the last post. Since then a lot has happened. Took a while to adjust to my new lifestyle.  Truthfully, still adjusting. Happy? Needless to say, you might not recognise me this time around from the extra extra pounds I've successfully put on. I visited this blog sometime last week and immediately thought, OMG what happened. I still think I should continue to blog. So this post, is the 1st for 2018.

AND OFF WE GO!! TO POKHARA! The bus from Kathmandu to Nepal takes about 7 hours. The amount of waking up, dozing off and stops are included.

It was my first visit to Nepal, and I certainly hope it will not be the last. Our first day setting foot in Nepal was Kathmandu. The busy streets, the locals,hikers, tourists, bikes, cars and the dusty roads is exactly what I've pictured prior setting foot here. Experiencing it on the other hand is another story.
