When the Horseman Acts Like a Horse Mules Used in Trekking in Nepal In recent years, we had some luck of organizing some remarkable treks to Lower Dolpo following a thoughtful review and thread started by one of our clients also added by more clients and other visitors on trip advisor travel site.    In this year 2015, even after the damaging earthquake, we have been able to keep holding our Dolpo trek clients.    Two groups booked for this year are currently in end of first week of their trek and I have already got this story to share about their trek! As my name is posted as guide on the reviews on trip advisor, obviously the clients want myself to be guide for the trek. But to both groups I was able to convince that, I was busy for something else so I could not be their guide.  If they trust our team's services, we can still manage a capable guide but I won't be trekking with them – this was told and they had agreed to go without me.  At the ...

              A Story of a Nobody Person From a Nowhere Place Like elsewhere in Nepal too, if a man marries second wife he and his new wife can be punished as per the law.  However, only few hurt first wives dare to go through legal process due to still heavily man dominant reality of our society. For women from more deprived jana jaati (ethnic) community, it's even more difficult to go through complicated process of law to get justice in such cases. As a result, in our society, it's still not a surprise news if a husband ties knot with another woman and force his first wife to leave home and family.  Bhomaya Poon with her colleague at Ghuma Thati Bhomaya Poon Magar 52, current resident of  Pokhara is one of such women who faced the bitter consequence of being forcefully sent out by her own husband and left her to be nobody to go nowhere.  In the age of 24 with two young baby boys and husband who had job as Nepal Ar...

Greetings Everybody!  It's been long time since the last post on this blog. This time I have brought Upper Mustang and Mt Saribung Trekking information and itinerary as part of marketing of some of the unique trips, we organize in the Himalaya. Upper Mustang – Mt Saribung (6328 mtr) Trekking and Climbing Phu Valley After Saribung Pass  Mt Sarbung Climbing trip combined with trekking in upper Mustang is one of the unique adventure trips you can experience in the Nepal Himalaya. Mt. Saribung, height 6238 mtr offers an easy to medium level climbing, yet, it's rarely climbed due to its location in far remote area near the Tibet border in Upper Mustang, Nepal.  Upper Mustang once an independent kingdom guided by spiritual system of Tibetan Buddhism is still considered as one of the most important centers for observing Tibetan or Himalayan culture and life.  This region is less visited by tourists due to heavy fee and restriction for foreign trekkers.  O...

Basic Introduction about Buddhist Stupa  Well Known Great Stupa of Bodhnath, Kathmandu Whoever visiting Buddhist countries or sites witnesses a pyramid-like structure erected on the base of a giant dome; some with decoration and some in simple form.  Such particular structure in Buddhist term is called Stupa.
