Farewell Adelaide, Namaste Nepal!


COUNTRY: Nepal
PROGRAM: UniBreak Groups
PROJECT: Education
WRITTEN BY: Heidi Stokes, Flinders University

We all arrived at the airport after our long awaited journey for our adventure to begin. The 24hour journey to Kathmandu allowed for plenty of time to get to know one another. We even had time for Andy to show us some yoga poses and Georgia to turn on her global warming aka global roaming haha ;)
Upon arrival to Kathmandu it was more than a sigh of relief to see Kerry and Kaldens faces. Kathmandu appears to have a lot to offer, from good food to The stunning Garden of Dreams. Up at 6am and ready for our departure to Pokhara. We had an amazing run with traffic and made good timing. (That had nothing to do with the fast, overtaking, sometimes scary driving- wink wink parents).

Along the way we saw so many amazing things and also a lot to remind us of how lucky and privileged we are to live in Australia.
Now we have finally arrived in Tashi Ling Tibetan Settlement where we will be living for the next four weeks. Time to get to know our families and live as the Tibetans do :)
