Well.... here I am! After 28 hours of flying around the world, I finally arrived in Kathmandu.
I figured I had read a lot about this place and that I would be prepared, however.... I had no idea what it was going to be like. This is a very busy city, everyone is constantly on the go and has something to do. The beggers coming out of the airport caught me off guard and I'm pretty sure I gave them too much money. Everyone is very nice though and I even met a friend (Diep) on the flight, he immigrated to Canada from Nepal ten years ago and is on his way back to visit his friends and family.
My hotel is very nice, everyone is pleasant and is willing to answer all my questions about Nepal. The food is unbelievable, I'm not sure what I just ate but it was delicious! For now, I can here some music out of the window and I think I may go for a walk and try to find out where it's coming from.
This site will be used mainly to document my trip to Kathmandu between July and September of 2008. I will be posting journal entries here as regularly as possible (and pictures if I can) throughout my entire trip. Please check back here when you can for updates and feel free to leave comments when you like!
