An Inspirational Trip to Nepal
|
Last year I embarked on what I had envisioned to be a trip of a lifetime – a trip to Nepal. Nepal had always been in the back of my mind as a place to see to experience the culture, the beauty and, of course, the Himalayan Mountains. A friend and I embarked on a trek to do the Annapurna Circuit in March of 2018 and loved every minute of it. We traveled through Nepalese villages, encountered numerous kind and loving people and trekked over the Thorung La Pass, one of the highest navigable passes in the world. Now, fast forward to January of 2019, when I saw an ad in Backpacker magazine to help rebuild schools ravaged by the 2015 Nepal earthquake, and, as a plus, hike to the very remote Nar Phu Valley region.

It was a nice enough tree, but it just couldn’t be tolerated so close to the Suffield Village building next to the wooden Indian.
