Nice naration! This “Where are you?” is our national disease.
I lived in Pokhara for six years, used to work there. My average feeling of Pokhara is ‘beautiful place but rude people’. I have many intimate Pokhreli friends and I know they will object this.
Ah, true… D, true… hard to be happy alone. But we can always try. Happened to me in Pokhara too. I tried and indulge myself while my colleagues decided to “rest” after a trip from Myagdi. I guess I ate too much to give me a bad stomach and a realization that I was alone. Anyway, the pictures were great. Especially your not-at-all-jhare “jhare esstyle”.
Thank you for liking the pictures everyone. ( my jhare estyle included ) And sorry for this very very LATE response. My laziness and fluctuating moods are to be blamed for it ….
N Basantaji , if the work related entry I’d posted earlier is something that interests you might have have known of an NGO in Pokhara working in similar issues too…They are more community and ‘hardcore’ agriculture based NGO with less policy focus.But in a village from where both Rupa and Begnas lakes can be seen ( forgot the name) they have done some commendable job regarding ABS ( Access and Benefit Sharing) as in they have this Community Biodiveristy Registers with all the names of the local flora and fauna in it, which is basically the first step towards implementing ABS ( though the ABS bill is yet to be passed in the Nepali context). It is used as a resource site for similar projects elsewhere. Their work is really impressive.
