Can you imagine 14 hungry and tired students showing up at your doorstep asking for a meal? What if there was also no power? This is exactly what happened to our faithful chef in Rolpa. After a very long ride into the remote district we reached our hotel hungry only to find out that there was no power and everything was closed due to the late hour. Our sweet chef took on this challenge on by making us a delicious meal of potatoes, beans, and carrots while keeping a smile on his face. I don’t think anyone of us will forget his generosity and cheerfulness.

All of us will come back from our adventure in Nepal with numerous stories of how extraordinarily nice the Nepali people are. We have been greeted by so many smiles along our journey that it would be impossible to leave here without feeling a great affection for the Nepali people. Tonight, we had our last dinner where we got to say thank you and good-bye to many of our friends here in Kathmandu only to find them thanking us right back. It is quite easy for me to come to the conclusion that Nepal probably has the nicest people on Earth.
