Foreigners in our slang kyures are always prepared for their holidays. Usually they choose their holidays to be an adventurous one. They want to or end up traveling alone. There was this guy sitting next to me when I was traveling from Mumbai to Kathmandu. He started a conversation when I was reading the best pat of the newspaper THE HOROSCOPE. Colin asked me so many questions so fast. I think it was faster than the earth revolves. When he got to know that I belong to Nepal he was more inquisitive and wanted to know more about the town, I kept talking, I guess it was a non- stop 20 mins talk on how beautiful Nepal is. In poets words SUNDER, SHANTA AND VISHAL.

I told him there’s something about this place: Futile, Insignificant, Yet it will sweep your breath away. The weather is just so pleasant.  The wind rustles the leaves in the driveway that soared in the air. The rain with hailstones is a sight to see. And the sun going down the mountains is Heavenly. One could just fall in love all over again The dimming lights in the city makes it so beautiful. The birds fly in a fleet in the clear sky in and around the trees make you want to take their place. High peaks with the highest mountain in the world Mt. Everest surrounding the valley shows the art and craft of nature which is amazing. It will just be too less to describe in words. One has to visit the place to see its beauty. I still wonder why do people leave this place and stay somewhere else. Even if the youngsters go out for there higher education which is very common they should get the potential and use it in the development of the country. In some fields there is no infrastructure, that’s true but one has to make the start and the road will lead.

The people here are full of warmth and concern that is very rare to find in today’s era. Even a stranger who passes by you or while you use the public  transport gives a smile and that look that you have known them forever. People are way adjustable. It’s just the political   instability and security that gives this magnificent place a drawback. There are loads to be done and if we come together we can and will do it easily. The city as I say has its own charm.

And now I get a mail from Colin saying: Loved my stay. There is something about Nepal and I miss it all the more when I am back in my hectic, busy life. And also my horoscope was true it said:” I will meet people from different cultures”
