Nepal

It is cold here...i like (10 degs like taiwan but it feels colder), but im still wearing shorts... :S

Here i am at some temple in kathmandu...

The "old town" is full of these things...sculptures and temples...

This is the kathmandu i knew...(from some Don Rosa comic...), old temples....

This is the kathmandu that is....the Thamel area, super touristic, reminds me of ko sam road in Bangkok...
People trying to sell things all the time...it is a wonder that they wont get backrupt, since they all sell the same, km after km...(if its not the same owner that is, like in the grand bazaar in istanbul...)

The motocyles are using their horn constantly, it becomes chaotic ones in a while...on the small roads of kathmandu...
I will go do Bhutan in 2 days, trekking for one week next week, and the go to tibet.
It is really not a country for the poor, my trip here became far more expensive than I thought...with 200 USD fee in bhutan per day, plus additional fees...
Greedy travel agencies that charge high cost is mandatory, but im not the easiest tourist to handle...

Nepals flag, not a square shape...exotic.
Kathmandu city areas has electricity only a couple of hours per day, so computer doesn work most of the time...

This paper shows when the hotel has electricity...they better plan their activites to this one...
In kathmandu I try to be cultural...

I tried 2 beers here (local brew), one is Everest...is one had a special edition honoring a sherpa...it was ok...

The other one is "nepal ice" it taste a little different, but both of them are neutral in taste (like pripps bla)
I also bought some nepal cheese...(like when i went interailing in easter europe, enjoying food culture), it was nothing special, but exotic...for beeing nepalese...
