Nepal

After papa's passing away, there was huge vacuum in life. Just returned from USA, left job of Zensar. So life was middle of no where. I did some work for Manoj but it was not major. He planned his trip to Dharan, Nepal. I hesitantly said yes. In my mind I was betraying family going alone while whole family was struggling to come out of Papa's untimely death.

Finally I did mange to go amid big tension in mind about timing of going. Since I want to get out of trouble in last few months, at the same time travelling to east side of country was beckoning.
It was question of few days (10-16 September) so finally boarded train to Jal Pai Gudi with manoj.

Train journey was long and tiring and took 2 days to reach JalPaiGudi. On the way able to see Ganga
river and felt very good to see such a broad river.

After njp to panitanki we went by taxi through scenic siligudi.
Morning we crossed panitanki by walking and entered small town called kakarvitta.
Then from Kakarvitta we went to Dharan by bus.

Next day we spend time in Dharan working with Koirala institute.

On 14th we moved to Darkiling. On 15th went to see Kangchenjunga. Funny part was we couldn't use our own vehicle because in Gorkhaland it is compulsary to use their vehicle only to preserve local interest!
