 Been in Jorpati Narayantar Kathmandu for almost a month now and I can say that I am loving every single minute of my stay it is absolutely amazing. I'm starting to get really close with the kids, and they're creating a very strong relationship with me. It will be hard to let go - but that's a negative I'll stick with the positive! I took some photos this morning and got a hold of some internet so I'll share... By the way in a previous post I mentioned going to Pokhara after my first month. No way will I do that I love these kids too much to leave them. Hopefully more of you than I think are looking at this...  |

After a hectic 33 hour journey I finally arrived in one of the most beautiful scenic countries I've ever seen. Except I had no bags... Again... Didn't matter though because I didn't have any bags for my first week when I was in Kenya as well! Anyway, now that I've settled down, put on some clean underwear and taken a lovely 33 degree shower I'm just getting ready to leave for my home stay. I'm going to be in Jorpati for the first month then moving on to a farm in Pokhara for the next two months. Enough with the talking here are some pictures...
