When we arrived in Nepal I got the feeling that we just traveled to a different time. As we were driving from the airport to the hotel, Tony was taking pictures, Kelly was looking through the window and I was watching the reality that was unfolding in front of us. Sure you’re going to find lots of modern things in Nepal but, somehow, you can feel how the traditions prevail there. Nepalese people are really proud of their traditions but not only that, they’re really eager to share their traditions and their culture with you. However, they’re at the same time really eager to know about you: “Where do you come from? How is your home country? What do you like? Are you sure you’re not Nepalese? Because you look Nepalese! [haha]”: may be some of the questions or comments you might get while traveling through Nepal. That’s a really cool experience: to be welcomed and greeted with such enthusiasm and curiosity while your interlocutors have a big genuine smile on their faces.
