Kathmandu


















had a great trip to Kathmandu and Pokhra in August 2005, thanks to good friend Vikash Chemjong. it was during the height of the ‘Maoist tension’ which was always quite evident by the presence of the king’s army absolutely everywhere. and we did a pretty good job of riding around on a borrowed bike without any papers and licenses dodging the police and checkposts everywhere.
things to do before you die(unless you plan to do some serious mountain climbing in the Himalayas)– mountain flight. a one-hour flight that flies over the Himalayas, upto Everest and back.
