Discovering Tibetan Nepal

DISCOVERING TIBETAN NEPAL
A series by Nicholas Eager
Prayer flags sending wishes in the wind with every thread, sunsets setting fire to the mountains, cheery nuns cooking nourishing treats over a crackling fire, energetic monks playing football over a cliff, loyal dogs guiding lost trekkers along the trail, squeaky prayer wheels spinning endlessly, furry yaks eying strange non-furry humans curiously from afar, swaying bridges hanging high above rushing teal-colored rivers, weary donkeys hauling heavy supplies, shoes sinking abruptly into the snow, majestic mountain goats strutting across the field, and milk tea melting treacherously frozen lakes. All powered by Dal Bhat 😋
In December 2021, my friend Hung and I traveled to Nepal to hike near the Tibetan border. There were countless little beautiful moments on this trip. We went during the off-season, which primarily meant cold and snow. But it also meant empty tea houses and every opportunity to sit in the kitchens while the tea house owners cooked us dinner, and made a roaring fire with equally warming conversation (most of which we couldn’t understand as it was in Tibetan 😄). I’m grateful to finally trek for the first time in Nepal 🏔
To help tell the story a little more, watch a relaxing video of our trekking together :)
