Rasuwa Reminders: The Shades of Nature

Image
Two years ago, while I was working in a remote village Mailung of Rasuwa district, I had hardly thought that those Rasuwa days would stay fresh in the reminiscences for many years to come. Honestly, the photos that I had captured are the main reason behind this. Whenever I look at those in my gadgets, all the things related to it start to float in the mind. No, I don't get into nostalgia, but it is more like the feeling of something good, something that I have experienced and am happy for.  There were more bitter feelings then but when I think of it today, it was actually good for I got to learn many things, experience many things - mainly: adjustment and tolerance capacity. Well, of different pieces of stuff to remember, I mostly recall its natural beauty.  It is not that drop-dead gorgeous place, neither it has abundance of breath-taking scenery. It is but just a small village, quite a remote area even though not very far from the capital city. When I first arrived...

While in West Terai

Last year, I was in Dang due to the job; the most western part of Nepal I had been to by then. It's been a year, and here I'm sharing some moments from the time I spent there. The little smartphone on my hand did all the capturing. The place where I stayed was in Arghakhanchi district and the site of work was in Dang district, the bridge over Rapti river connected these twos. It is the place from where Mid-western Development Region starts; at which Hills decline and Terai begins. Geography! Rapti Bridge and Bhalubang Bazaar, Dang as seen from the bank of Rapti, (on the Arghakhanchi side) The condition of East-West highway did not look much good, but those trees with red leaves on the side surely added the charm.

Travel Diaries: A Fast Flashback

As cliche as it might sound, but I truly mean it: I love travelling . Always looking for a cue to pack a bag and start off... Travelling has always been a passion, ever since the first tour I had when in college. As a kid, travelling, for me was all about going to Kathmandu, and watching movies and roaming around places with parents. I had not gone to many places until college days. I remember I was pretty excited for my first tour, which was of only one night and two days, in the third semester. As growing up happens, it becomes easier to travel on own. But the only problem there will be the budget! There will be friends and the time can be managed from college but one needs a decent sum of money to go explore those amazing places one has been dreaming of. And students have limited pocket money, that’s all. Studying civil engineering was fun when it came to college tours. We had, at least, one in each semester. I must admit that those tours were the most exciting thing...
