    Nepali Newspaper Finds

    Nepali Newspaper Finds

    Our flight from Kathmandu to Bangkok was delayed for three hours, so we passed time reading the Nepali English language newspapers. We found two gems that we just have to share with you. The first is the headline above. Have you read anything more to the point than that? Hey fatso, go away!     [...]

    And…We’re Outta Here

    And…We’re Outta Here

    Our experience in Nepal has been one of the highlights of our trip, thanks in no short part to Arjun and his family. Without their help, we would be floundering around (much like we are about to do) trying to make educated guesses about what the heck is going on around us.   If you’re [...]

    Celebrating Nepal – With a New Addition

    Celebrating Nepal – With a New Addition

    A few glasses of wine and an inquiry into nose piercing practices in Nepal lead me here:   That’s right. I got my nose pierced. I also used the word Karma today without being cynical. They say travel changes you…(enter Martin’s rolling eyes here)

    Nepali Hot and Spicy Potato (Piro Aloo) Recipe

    Nepali Hot and Spicy Potato (Piro Aloo) Recipe

    Our awesome landlord Arjun had us over for the feast last night, instructing us on how to cook everything he prepared for us. In total there were ten dishes. We’re talking a whirlwind tour of Nepali food – and every dish was better than the last.   Piro Aloo was served as a cold snack, [...]

    Kathmandu’s Outdoor Food Market

    Kathmandu’s Outdoor Food Market

    In celebration of our time together our landlord (pictured) agreed to cook us up some amazing Nepali food before we leave. Not only does he run a tight ship with his rental units, but he also runs a guesthouse, helps to relocate refugees to the US, and was a professional chef for twelve years. The [...]

    Kathmandu Photo Gallery

    Kathmandu Photo Gallery

    While Martin is busy taking photos of the television, I was snapping photos of our last visit to the market in Kathmandu (OK, to be fair, he was with me and took some of these photos).   We’re leaving Nepal on January 22nd, so I thought a photo gallery would be a nice way to [...]

    Why Take Pictures Outside?

    Why Take Pictures Outside?

    What do you do when you have a lot of time on your hands? Why, you take photos of the television, of course.   Martin has picked up a strange habit of snapping photos of the television. To his credit, it doesn’t happen all the time and I guess I can see why it might [...]

    Travel Planning Procrastination

    Travel Planning Procrastination

    We’ve sat in Kathmandu for three months now, knowing full well the date of our departure. In all that time did we plan our next destination? No. We’ve done what every traveler on a tight budget should never do – leave planning to the very last minute. Granted, we’ve never had a rigid plan anyway [...]

    Our Last Week In Nepal

    Our Last Week In Nepal

    We gave ourselves three months in Nepal to get started on our book writing. We figured it was as good a place as any to do this – we found a great little apartment outside the crazy part of town, we joined a gym and we started cooking our own food again. In short, it’s [...]

    The Last Resort for the Reluctant Vegetarians

    The Last Resort for the Reluctant Vegetarians

    Our time here in Nepal has been almost completely vegetarian. It’s not that we don’t trust the meat around these parts – we’re just a bit intimidated by the meat stores. Think giant slabs of meat dripping of fresh blood, piles of decapitated chickens and lumps of liver on the floor.   Still, we do [...]

    My, What a Fine Turban You Have There

    My, What a Fine Turban You Have There

    Life on the road moves at a different pace than in the real world. The key to maintaining a semblance of the person you were before traveling (as opposed to a loser hippie traveler, for example) is to keep yourself busy in creative ways.   Martin and I do this a few different ways. One [...]

    Annapurna – We’re Not Alone

    Annapurna – We’re Not Alone

    Looking at some pictures of our recent Annapurna trek, you’d believe that we were going off the beaten path up there, breaking new ground and exploring virgin territory.     Not so. In fact, we just learned that the Annapurna trails were visited by almost 77,000 people in 2009 alone. That’s 1,000 times the population [...]

    Nepal Visa Extension: Check

    Nepal Visa Extension: Check

    A fairly common racket among the world’s nations is the Visa Extension – paying for the privilege of staying longer in the country. Here in Nepal the process is pretty straightforward: you go to a Kathmandu office where you fill out a simple form, provide a passport size photo, hand over your passport and $30 [...]

    The Cost of Annapurna Trekking

    The Cost of Annapurna Trekking

    Once upon a time I was an accountant. I wouldn’t say I was particularly good with numbers (all accountants know that’s what calculators are for) but I have to admit that I liked messing around with spreadsheets.   Fine, I’m a nerd.   But that’s neither here, nor there. As a throw-back to my accounting [...]

    It’s Raining Retrievers

    It’s Raining Retrievers

    Our landlord recently brought a puppy over for us to play with. It was en route to it’s new owner, but had an hour to spare for us to cuddle and fawn over (as any two dog lovers who, for obvious reasons, can’t have a dog right now would do). Sadly, the little guy had [...]
