- Talk to anyone about a trip to Nepal and the focus turns to treks through exhilarating
mountain panoramas and visions of exhausting uphill battles, smelly feet and thermal
underwear. True, Nepal is a "Mecca for trekkers", but it also shelters a cultural landscape as diverse as any on the planet.

- Kathmandu is big, but the region of most interest is the old town. This is where the city was born and where you will find Kathmandu's soul. Surrounding Durbar (palace) Square are the ancient marketplaces, linked by a narrow street that marked the start of the trade route to Tibet.

- Tiny Nepal, wedged between the serrated mountain ridges separating it from India and the ‘rooftop of the world’ Himalayas, isn’t just for mountaineers and trekkers. It’s for anyone wanting to experience a unique blend of cultures and religions. The journey into history begins in Kathmandu.

- this is my travelogue in Nepal and especially dealing with Kathmandu. It is an amazing city mixing influence of China and India. The spirituality is very strong and you could met a god in every corner !

- The Nepal Himalayas are known as the 'Kingdom of the Gods'. Pokhra is the starting point of many treks in western Nepal. This was a trip I undertook with a friend of mine, Anurag Nautiyal (Nauty, for short) in October 1998. This was meant to be one of those "have worked hard for my money, now I need to enjoy it" trips - and it was.

- In October 2007, our team of medical volunteers trekked along the little known Tamang Heritage Trail, with the goal of providing free health care to thousands of Tamang people living in the area.

- If you're in Kathmandu, Nepal, with extra freetime, and want to "do something"... why not "volunteer"?
