Namaste all!
As our first day in Kathmandu reaches an end, I look back on the three days that brought me to this bustling city. It was quite the journey walking here (or should I say climbing due to the immense stairs?) and I could not be happier in completing the challenge. There were many sights to see along the way, whether they were baby goats jumping along side us, or houses left in shambles by the recent earthquake. There were several obstacles, but also great discoveries. Instead of seeing heartbreak in the eyes of the Nepali people I saw bravery and excitement towards their futures. On the second night we stayed with a family whose hotel had been completely demolished this past April. The aamaa (mother) of the family showed such love and compassion towards us that I felt renewed in hopefulness that anyone could get through anything. Also her Dal Bhat was amazing. Nepal’s hospitality continues to warm my heart and I look forward to the next three weeks in Kathmandu. -Helen
