Wall Climbing

I saw my letter of appreciation dated 29 June 2002, when I was in Nepal Mountaineering Association as an administrator. Today, I recalled the wall climbing at the park. I was scared first time, when I saw people climbed the wall like monkey. I had tried two times but could not succeed. Third time I could reach the maximum height. I found myself happy and felt confident from my inner heart. Then I sent my eldest son Piyadassi, for climbing. At the age of 10 years, first he was reluctant to climb. After seeing number of enthusiast climbers, he tried to climb and reached as I did.

This experience encouraged me to start something new in climbing and adventure sports. But I could not do for long time, I was involved in management, branding, marketing and promotion of various corporate houses. 

I think now is the time to cash my experiences and need to start my own. Therefore, I have started Tripitak Holidays an adventure based sports tourism in Nepal. You can contact us for #Canyoning, #RockClimbing, #MountainBiking, #Paragliding, #Ultralight, #MountainFlight, #Zipfly, #BungyJump, #MotorbikeTour, #BushHike, #TrailRunning, #Hiking etc.

I do still remember the climbing artificial wall at International Mountaineers Memorial Park, Kakani, Nuwakot with the help of professional mountain guides from NMA. Yes, I did climb the artificial wall.

After long gap few months back again I have an opportunity to be in Nagarjun Rock Climbing spot and climbed normal route set for beginners. Yes this time, I did climb two times to get the point that was fixed for beginners. My instructor was Kishor Shahi, the owner of Chhango, The Canyoning Company. After that climbing and some adventure experience and my long involvement in tourism encourage me to start consultancy to manage tourism business houses. To start with now I am looking after the management of Chhango and my own company. I am happy, very happy to be involved in this adventure sports.

Common guys and gals ! Join us to sharpen your confidence in you.

ठमेल (Thamel)

हामी ठमेलको बजेट होटेलको कोठा कति सम्म पाइन्छ भनेर खोज्दै थियौं । घुम्दै जांदा एउटा होटेलमा पुगियो। होटेल भित्र पस्दा पस्दै रिसेप्सन तिर पुगियो। सोफा कम बेड भएको रिसेप्सन कोठामा पुरानो कफि टेबुलमा पुरानै पत्रिका, एउटा फुलदानीमा प्लास्टिकका फुल, खुइलेको भित्तामा केही देवी देवताको फोटोहरु झुन्डिएको देखियो।

उप्केको प्लाइउड भएको रिसेप्सनको टेबुलमा एउटा क्यालेन्डर, रजिस्टर, कापी संगैको आर्को टेबुलमा।

रिसेप्सनिस्ट्को प्रतिक्षामा हामी बस्दै गर्दा एक जना सानो फुच्चे केटो कान कोट्याउदै, आँखा मिच्दै आईपुग्यो। हाफ कट्टु लगाएका त्यो भाईले हामीलाई पहिलो प्रश्न गर्यो  "कोठा एकछिनको लागि हो कि एक दिनको लागि ?"

म आश्चर्य चकित हुँदै आफ्नो भिजिटिङ कार्ड दिदै "भाई ठुलो मान्छे को हुनुहुन्छ बोलाई दिनुस त " भने ।

एक छिनमा ठुलो मान्छे पनि आइपुग्यो । मेरो भिजिटिङ कार्ड हेरे पनि त्यही प्रश्न दोहर्यायो । "कोठा एक छिन को लागि कि कति दिन को लागि ?"

हामी चकित भयौं । हामीले ठुलो गल्ती गरेछम क्यारे । कतै हाम्रो अनुहारमा त्यस्तो बदमाशी त झल्किएको पो छ कि ? पहिले त हामीले बुझेनम किन त्यस्तो प्रश्न सोधेछन भनेर । केहि छिन पछि एक जोडी केटा केटी नाकमा मास्क लगाएर आए । हामीले कोठा नलिने भन्ने थाहा पाएर होला " तपाईंहरू एकै छिन बस्नुस है । म उहाँहरु संग कुरा सिध्याउछु " भन्यो ।

त्यो टोलिलाई पनि सिधै प्रश्न गर्‍यो " एक छिन कि एक दिन ?" 

केटो : "एक छिन ।"

रिसेप्सनिस्ट:" एक छिन को लागि हो भने आठ सय एक दिन हो भने पन्ध्र सय है सर।"

केटो : "अलि दिस्काउन्ट गरिदिनुस न ।"

रिसेप्सनिस्ट: "एक छिन को लागि यत्तिनै हो ।"

केटो : "ल ल ठिकै छ । कुन कोठा हो देखाइ दिनुस ।"

हामिले बल्ल कुरो बुझ्यौ । के के न ठूलो काम गर्ने भनेर गएको त्यहा को परिस्थिति देखेर छक्क पर्यौ ।

यथार्थमा त्यो दृश्य मेरो मानस पतलमा झल्झल्ती आएको देख्दा नेपालमा पनि रेड लाईट एरिया छुट्याउनु बेस होलाकी जस्तो लाग्यो । सामाजिक अवस्था ले नपचाए पनि वास्तविकता आफ्नै आँखा अगाडि देखियो । समाज कता लाग्दै छ ? स्कुल, कलेजमा पढ्न गएका हाम्रा सन्तान कतै कुबाटोमा त लागेका छैनन ? एक पटक सोच्न पर्ला कि ? अस्तु ।

Birthday in the sky, a family fly

Birthday in the sky, Pokhara, a lake city of Nepal.

It was just beginning of the monsoon, we have decided to celebrate birthday in the sky. First it was like a monsoon madness, most of our friends did not suggest us to visit Pokhara during monsoon. We may get thunder storm. But on 24 June 2014 morning, we were excited whether we could complete our mission or not. The weather was cloudy and gloomy in Pokhara, We were expecting the favorable weather for paragliding in paradise. Our mission was to celebrate our daughter's birthday in the sky. 

A Sacred Start

Early morning, we went to Taal Barahi, a lake temple in Fewa Taal. By the time, we were boating in Fewa lake, we could see the weather was getting clear and sunny. We had a nice time in Fewa lake. We all got chance to row the boat turn by turn while going to Temple and back. This time, every body got life jackets for boating, which we felt very good for security reason.

The Call from the Sky

I got a first call at 9:00 am from Avia Club that we need to be assembled by 11: 00 am at their office. We could see a hope for probability of paragliding.

After coming back from Taal Barahi Temple, we were taking brunch when my mobile got second call from Avia Club. This time, our assembly time got revised to 10:45 am. We need to rush a little bit more. But we were happy. We got confirmation that we were flying. 

Sarangkot – The Takeoff Point

During our transfer to Sarangkot, I briefed all our pilots that we were celebrating our daughter's birthday in the sky. All pilots got excited and thrilled. They promised us to keep us flying in same elevation as far as possible.

We all reached Sarangkot, the base camp for Paragliding, I like to say, at 11:30 am. The weather was favorable and we all got big bag to carry and waiting for favorable wind. One of our Pilot said that "first carry this bag by yourself, after flying it will carry you". Wow. What a wonderful bag. It was actually a parachute.

A Family in the Sky

Yes.......! My wife Yek Maya took off first. She was enjoying. Then, my birthday girl Uppalavanna,  myself, my eldest son Piyadassi and my youngest son Nhuja turn by turn.

Wow... We all family were in the sky at the same time. It was our dream that came true and we created own history celebrating our daughter's birthday in the sky in Pokhara, Nepal, that was first of its kind in Nepalese tourism industry, if I am not wrong. I have not heard this type of flying but we did it.

All our pilots tried to be in same elevation, but my elder son, my daughter and I could see in the same elevation, my wife was in higher and my youngest son in the lower elevation. Even then, we could wish her in the sky.

We all were in the sky. All family members got refreshed, a happy present to my family that I could ever give and that became historic.

A Dream Realized

What I found is we could launch this concept as a tourism product. "Birthday in the sky, a family fly." 

Gratitude

We are grateful to Mr. Barun Gyawali, Avia Club and all the Pilots, Ronald, Mouricio, Elli, Bijay Gautam & Bijay Dahal.

From next time, why not you think about celebrating your kids birthday in the sky, an adventure gift. 

Enjoy...!

सिंह र हात्ती

एक दिन चितवनको जङ्गलका राजा सिंहलाई सबै जनावर सङ्ग अन्तरबार्ता लिनु पर्यो, के प्रश्न राख्ने होला भनेर मनमनै गुनेछ । केही बेर पछि एउटा प्रश्न फुरेछ । यो जङ्गलको राजा को हो ? मलाई चिन्छौ कि चिन्दैनौ ? त्यसपछि, त्यो सिंह जङ्गलमा आउने सबै जनावरलाई सोध्न हिडेछ ।

सबैभन्दा पहिला खरायो बुद्रुक बुद्रुक उफ्रदै आएको रहेछ ।

सिंह : ए खरायो ! यो जङ्गलको राजा को हो भन त ।
खरायो : (दुबै हात जोडेर लग लग काप्दै, मन मनै ल खत्तम आज यो सिंहले मलाई खाने भो भन्ने लागेछ ) र बिनम्रताका साथ जवाफ फर्काएछ । सरकार ! यो जङ्गलको राजा हजूर त हो नि ।

सिंह : (दङ्ग पर्दै) ल ठिक  छ, जा ।
खरायो दङ पर्दै, बचियो भनेर ताप थोकेछ ।

त्यस पछि स्याल आएछ ।

सिंह : ए स्याल ! (भनेर पुर्ब प्रश्न सोधेछ)
स्याल : सास्टाङ दण्डवत गर्दै, सरकार ! यो जङ्गलमा अरु को हुन सक्छ र सरकार बाहेक ! हजुर नै त हो नि। अरु कस्को हिम्मत । हजुर जस्तो राजा बाहेक अरु हुने चान्स नै छैन ।

सिंह : तैंले झुठो बोलेको त होइन ?

स्याल : धरोधर्म हजुरको मासु खाने मैले झुठो बोलेको छैन ।

सिंह : ल ल ठिक छ । मोरो मेरो कसम खान्छ । जा ।
स्याल कुलेलम थोकेछ ।

घुम्दा घुम्दै सौराहा तिर पुगे पछि हात्ती देखेछ ।

सिंह : ए हात्ती ! यो चितवनको जङ्गलको राजा को हो भन् त ।

हात्तीले जवाफ फर्काएन । थुस्स परेर बसेछ ।

सिंह : (फेरि प्रश्न दोहर्याएछ ) ए हात्ती सुनेन ? यो जङ्गल को राजा को हो ?

फेरि पनि हात्तीले जवाफ फर्काएनछ । तेस्रो पटक सिंह कड्केर बोलेछ । ए हात्ती ! नसुने झैं गर्छस ? यो जङ्गल को राजा को हो ? मलाई चिनेनस ?

हात्ती स्वास्नी सङ्ग झगडा भएर मुड अफ भएर बसेको रहेछ । आफ्नो सुड्ले सिंहलाई च्याप्प समातेर फु......त्त फालिदिएछ । सिंह रुखमा ठोक्किएछ । टाउको फुटेर रगताम्य भएछ ।

सिंह : थाहा छैन भने पुगि हाल्थ्यो नि ! यस्तरी फाल्नु पर्छ । डाका, टाउको साउको नै फुटाइ दियो, भनेर आफ्नो  बाँस स्थान फर्केछ ।अस्तु ।

Canyoning in Nepal

Wow... It was wonderful experience canyoning with my daughter and some media friends today at Sundarijal, Kathmandu organized by Chhango, the First registered Canyoning Company of Nepal. We had a great opportunity that we could join with one of the best and pioneer canyoning company. All our guides were perfect in timing and training for amateur people like us.

Infact, I was looking for adventure company that organizes adventure sports in Nepal. Now, I am involved in this company for branding, marketing and promotion. I have joined this company as a consultant. In this connection, I wanted to see how they work and how the treat the guests. Today I got an opportunity with my family to experience this adventure sports.

As soon as we decided to do this activity, we were so excited that whether we could do or not. We had no such a big heart or guts to do such kind of amazing adventure activity that our family members dare to dream. Long back, when I asked permission to do this activity, when I was just married, I did not get permission from my family.

After 25 years of my married life, my wife, my daughter and I were ready for this activity. Today, I paid my long due to myself. This is a proof that time is powerful. Time comes to your life. It is not late when you start. It is the right time that you start. The same thing happened to me. I was waiting for today. I had this dream, long back and it came true today. Happy ! I am very happy !

Common guys be ready ! Go ! Go ! Leave your rope slowly and slowly. Yes ! Good ! Very good ! Wow wow ! Don't rush ! Slide down ! Swim ! Swim ! These are the words you will hear when you start abseil from the main rope. You should wear wet suit with jumars, figure 8, carabinars as equipments.

After playing 20m + 35m vertical down, highly adventurous canyoning, now I can say, have a little guts, avoid height phobea, then, yes you can start. Let's try. It is in Nepal, near Kathmandu, at Shivapuri National Park, Sundarijal. It is a nature wonder where you can do bush walking, river walking, mountain biking. Common folks !

Have fun. Enjoy your holiday. Gain confidence. Be bold. Be nature lover. Experience nature.

Best of luck.

पर्यटन आन्दोलन

नेपालको पर्यटनको ठेक्का लिएको प्रमुख ठेकेदार भ्रष्ट भएको भनेर नेपाल पर्यटन बोर्डमा झण्डै एक महिना सम्म अनेक सभ्य तरिकाबाट बिरोधको कार्यक्रम गरे पनि सरकारको उदासीनतालाई अख्तियार भन्ने संस्थाले पनि आदेश पर्खेर बसे जस्तो लाग्यो । मागेर संस्था चलाएर बसेको आमा घरमा कार्बाही गर्ने अख्तियार किन चुपचाप बसेको हो भन्ने पर्यटन ब्यबसायीहरुले बुझ्न नसकेर घाममा पसिना सुकाउदै अनशन बसेका छ्न । यस्तो हुँदा पनि अख्तियारलाई के चाहिएको हो बुझ्न गाह्रो भएको आन्दोलनमा सहभागी ब्यबसायीहरुले बताएका छन्।

यो आन्दोलनमा अनेक कुरा सुनियो । घोडा भनेर चढेको बाघ पो परेछ । त्यो पनि उराठ लाग्दो जङ्गलमा । ओर्लियो भने खाइ हाल्छ नओर्लिने हो भने कता सम्म पुर्याउने हो ठेगान नै भएन । केहि न केहि कुचु कुचु खानु पर्ने मान्छेलाई अनशनमा दिनभर पानीको भरमा भोकै बस्नु पर्दा बल्ल बुझे व्रत को महत्त्व । एक दिन अनशन बसे पछि जिउनै हलुँगो भयो ।

यो सुबाशे को देन हो । कमसेकम हामी पर्यटन ब्यबसायीहरुलाई दिनमा एक पटक भए पनि भेटाउन बाध्य बनाएको छ । कहिले नभेटेका साथीहरू भेटियो। भेटिने क्रम जारी नै छ । यहि ब्यबसायमा सम्लग्न भएर पनि म ठुलो तिमी सानो ब्यापारी भन्नेहरु सबैजना एकै ठाँउमा भेला हुने अबसर प्राप्त भएको छ । जति सुकै ज्याद्रो भए पनि सुबाशेलाई कहिले काहीं धन्यवाद दिनु पर्छ यार। नतिजा के हुने हो थाहा छैन । दुबै पार्टी टसमस छैनन् ।

बार्गेनिङमा दुबै पार्टीले सहमति गर्नु नै पर्छ भने किन ढीलो गर्ने । चाढै बार्ता गरी समस्या समाधान होस् भन्ने ब्यबसायीहरुको भनाई छ ।

बुझ्नेलाई यो कुरा गहिरो छ नबुझ्नेलाई घर छेउमै पहिरो छ । अस्तु ।

नेपाल पर्यटन बोर्ड के भाको?

सन् १९९८ मा नेपालको पर्यटनक्षेत्रमा "नेपाल भ्रमण" कार्यक्रममा निजी क्षेत्रको सफल सहभागितामा कार्यक्रम निक्कै सहज हुने रहेछ भन्ने हेक्का राखेर नेपाल पर्यटन बोर्डको स्थापना गरे जस्तो लाग्छ | निजी क्षेत्रको पहुच सरकारी क्षेत्रमा प्रहरी र चोरको जस्तो भूमिकाबाट हटाउन पर्यटनमा नौलो आयामको रुपमा निक्कै हौसलाका साथ स्थापना भएको संस्था १२ बर्ष को दौरानमा एकदम तानाशाही प्रवृतिको व्यहोरा प्रस्तुत भै एक जना व्यक्तिको गोजीको संस्था जस्तो भएको छ , ब्यबसायीहरुको आरोप छ ।

अहिलेको पर्यटन क्षेत्रमा भएको लडाई पनि एक व्यक्ति को निक्रिस्ट स्वार्थले समग्र पर्यटन क्षेत्रमा नकारात्मक असर हुने गरि भएको छ भनिन्छ ।

पर्यटन बोर्डको आयको सदुपयोग गरि पर्यटन तालिम, वृत्तिविकास, पर्यटकीय क्षेत्रको बिकास, अध्ययन, अनुसन्धान तिर लगानी गर्ने भन्दा को कसलाई चन्दा दिंदा आफ्नो जागिर लम्बिन्छ, आफु संधै कायम मुकायम भएर बस्न सकिन्छ भन्ने तर्फ बढी लागेको देखिन्छ भन्छन् ।

संसार भर विकेन्द्रिकरणको सिद्धानमा, TEAM (Together Everyone Achieve More) भन्ने सिद्धान्तले काम गरेको छ | तर नेपालको पर्यटन को ठेक्का लिएको संस्थामा हरेक कुराको निर्णय गर्न कायम मुकायम मुकरर गरेको भनिएका हाकिम साबले मात्रै गर्नु पर्दो रहेछ |बिचरा, उ सरहका एकै समयमा जागीर खाएका साथीहरु समेतलाई पाखा लगाएर, एकलौटी ढंगले केहि आसेपासेको हुल जम्मा गरेर तानाशाही पारा निकाले पछी, समस्या त बढ्ने नै भयो नि |

दिन रात एक गरि पसिना चुहाएर पर्यटक नेपाल भित्र्याउने पर्यटन ब्यबसायीहरुको पसिनाले जम्मा गरेको पर्यटक शुल्क एकजना "निजि क्षेत्र को हो" भन्ने नै नचिनेका कर्मचारीले आफु खुशी खर्च गरे पछी ब्यबसायीहरुको मुटु छिया छिया हुन्न र ? निजि क्षेत्र को परिभाषा नै नजानेका मान्छेलाई Private, Public Participation को साँचो दिए पछी के होला ? 

मैले पनि बुझ्न सकिन उ भन्दा अरु कोहि सक्षम नै छैन कि के हो त्यो संस्थामा | त्यस्तो हो भने मेरो भन्नु केहि छैन | अरु साथिहरु पनि के भाका ? एउटा व्यक्तिले ठिक बेठिक के गरि राखेको छ भन्ने कुरा पनि टुलु टुलु हेरेर बसे जस्तो लाग्छ |

त्यो एकल  व्यक्ति निकै पावरफुल रहेछ | जसलाई पनि हल्लाई दिन्छ | कसैले, तेस्ले गरेर कामै गर्न दिएन भन्छ, कसैले, त्यो हुन्जेल केहि हुँदैन भन्छ,  तर तेसैले जे पनि गरेको हुन्छ |मनपरी गरेको हुन्छ | खै त के भयो र ?

मैले त केहि बुझिन नेपाल पर्यटन बोर्ड के भाको?

Tony Fernandez in Nepal stall.

Wednesday, 26 February 2014. I was in the air, while starting this blog. I was travelling to Kuala Lumpur to participate in the travel fair organized by AirAsia. After few hours of flight I was not feeling well. It might be flight sickness. I took a long nap in business class without doing any business.

On the first day of travel fair, 28 Feb 2014, Mr. Tony Fernandez, Owner of AirAsia, visited our Nepal Tourism Stall. We were so happy that we had no words to explain the moment. I was wearing Nepali cap, Palpali Dhaka Topi, at the stall. Looking at my cap, he wanted to borrow my cap for a while to take a photo. We had Mount Everest banner to represent Nepal as an adventure destination. A bunch of photographer, and media people clicked Tony & our team infront of Mt. Everest banner. He was saying, let's go to Kathmandu, go to Nepal, go to Everest, the highest point on Earth, popularly known as the third pole. Lots of people are aware about Mt. Everest but not aware where it is situated. We were able to educate the visitors that Mt. Everest is in Nepal and it is an adventure destination.

Similarly the case of Lumbini, we had an opportunity to educate the visitors about the birth place of Lord Buddha is Lumbini, in Nepal.

Malaysian are easy travellers. They do not want to walk neither they like to trek. A very few young enthusiasts are fond of adventure lovers. They showed interest on bungey jump, swing, zipp flying, paragliding, etc.

Lot's of Malaysian heard about Kathmandu, Nagarkot, Pokhara, and not so interested in Chitwan, may be because of less information on Jungle activities at Chitwan.

We felt there is lot of opportunity to tap this market if we can educate them that Nepal has a very good harmony in between Hindu & Buddhist religion. One can see devotees visiting both temple and stupas at the same time. This kind of harmony is rare in the world. Before entering in Hindu Temple we see Buddhist stupas and idols of Hindu god and goddess at the entrance of Buddhist Viharas & stupas in Kathmandu Valley.

Come on and see this unique harmony. Feel & experience the social harmony.

My girl friend

She (GF) is slim, white, always energetic. She keeps me active. She follows me, my instructions. She is beautiful. She alerts me. She keeps sending email & sms. When I am online, she feels happy and likes to chat with me and even with my friends & family. She knows every one that I know. Sometimes more than me. She helps me finding clients for my business relationship. Checks my appointment and informs me on time as my personal secretary does.

From early in the morning to late night she stays around with me. Many times she kisses me in a day. My wife gets jealous. One day she left me and was not with me, I was missing her. My younger son came and shattered me,  "See the difference between wife and girl friend. When mom goes to out of town you are not worried, when your GF left for a day, look at your face? It's pale. So sorry dad! We will find either her or another one and convince her not to leave you." Wooo.....hoooo..... !

When she (GF) leaves me, my wife makes fun of me & reminds me "Remember ! I am your wife & only one life partner. GF is temporary. She may leave at any time. You need to keep spending. If you have no energy she will leave. But I will not. I will be with you always and always." I agreed.

But GF is mind blowing, amazing, awesome, keeps me alive. My wife keeps smiling and said, After all she is your girl friend. She doesn't have any responsibility at home. Keep it up, until you break my heart. Ah..! my dear, I will not. Neither I leave my GF nor I break your heart. I will go side by side. You both are important to my life.

Do you want me to declare who is my GF?

Dhaan...tarraaaan......

Oh... !my..... god...she is here.. she is my Samsung...mobile... ha..ha..ha.

This is my job.

It was Saturday, 8 Feb 2014, I got a call from my big boss early in the morning around 6:30 am. I was about to leave my house to see off my wife to bus station for her visit to our native place Butwal after a long gap. I should say " Sorry darling, I got an emergency call. I think it will be late if you wait me. This is my job". She made sour face and gave her permission. She managed to go with her sister. It happened many times after joining travel trade business.

My big boss wanted to reconfirm whether my group booking were reconfirmed or not, at the last minute. Actually I did the same, while leaving my office on Friday evening. I checked itinerary, accommodation, and sightseeing schedule with my colleagues regarding our group arrival on Saturday as usual. But it went wrong. We missed the arrival time. One of my colleague was on good Friday mood and left the office a bit earlier, who was in-charge of it.

By the time I got message that stated arrival time was 9 am. I tried to call my colleague here and there. It was Saturday and I couldn't get through on telephone. My call couldn't reach due to some technical problem. Engaged tone. The answer is "please call later". I tried from my land-line and mobile. I couldn't get through. I got stressed. At last, I could talk to one fellow Kripa. He managed to talk to Nixon and rechecked. Yes! arrival time was missed and it was 9 am in that morning from Europe, Turkish Airlines. It was already 8:15 am still I need to get my Hi-ace. At 8:45 am I got my vehicle and rushed to Tribhuwan International Airport. At 9 am I reached Airport and checked the schedule. Ah... ! I got relaxed when I saw the monitor that mentioned the flight was delayed to 9.10 am. Hummm....! I took long breath and waited for my guests with placard.

While waiting in front of arrival lounge, I saw a familiar face coming out from the arrival lounge. Oh.! she is my sister Sijan. What a surprise? She was supposed to come earlier and delayed and changed her flight to Turkish Airlines. Ok bye. She said to me and went with my brother in law Gyanendra.

Again, I was waiting showing placard. One beautiful lady with a smile waive her hand. I look around me and again got eye contact with the lady. Yes....! She is waiving hands to me. I counted the number of guests. It was four. Then I confirmed. This was my group. I escort them to our vehicle.

While crossing Pashupatinath area, a teen aged girl was excited and pointed to a monkey in the street. I told them that we live in nature. It is naturally Nepal, once is not enough to travel. This is just a start up. You will see lot of amazing things like in amusement park in other country. While driving on the road, they felt like a roller coaster in rough road in Lazimpat which is still under construction.

After dropping to Hotel and I handed over my guests to my tour officer Nixon. I took the same vehicle to drop me back to my home. After few minute, the driver said there is no more fuel and he could not drop me to my home. I thought, he knew that I had no morning walk on that day. I walked. I enjoyed. This is my job.
