Namaste!
I'm excited to tell you about an incredible opportunity I have to travel all the way to Kathmandu, Nepal. I'll be working at the Nepal Orphan's Home (NOH), or more affectionately known as Papa's House. I hope you'll consider taking this journey with me as we venture into the craggy peaks of the Himalaya.

I'll be traveling with 3 good friends I met while working up in Alaska. We all have a heart for adventure and the wind at our backs. The four of us, Ashley, Michelle, Melissa and I will meet up in San Francisco and from there head to Bangkok exactly 2 weeks from today. We plan to spend 2 nights in Bangkok to adjust to the time change. We'll then fly from Bangkok to Kathmandu...hopefully we'll be over the jet-lag. 3 days after waving goodbye to the USA we'll arrive in Kathmandu...with all our packs in tow.
Until then, we're reading our Nepal guidebooks, getting our packs ready, and saying our final goodbyes to those we wish could trek along with us.
Houston to Nepal: 8480 miles

| Where exactly is Nepal? You might ask... |
“Traveling is a brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance. Nothing is yours except the essential things – air, sleep, dreams, the sea, the sky – all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it.” – Cesare Pavese
