This place is ridiculous.
It so makes up for having, according to random man with newspaper on the street, the 7th worst airport in the world.
After about 20 minutes of paper work and picture taking and 2 and a half hours of standing in line…
A-Squad is in Nepal!
SO worth it. The mountain peaks seen through the airplane windows, insane.
These people just love well and respect each other, a lot.
When we went to get a taxi to our place, usually you can turn taxi driver against taxi driver, wait till you hear a price, look at the man standing next to him, “How much do you offer?” This group of taxi driver’s all looked at me and said, “500” the same price the original man said and motioned me toward the man who had originally talked to me.
I even had a dream about a guy and his son. I was playin catch with his son and threw his wiffel ball back to him. I threw it too hard and it went over the fence and i offered to hop it to get the ball back for the man’s son. The guy looked at me and said, “It’s the hotels ball now, leave it alone.” I was like, “what?!” any day most people would say screw whoever’s property it is, i’m jumpin this fence and gettin back what is, “mine.”
Bottom line. These people are insanely good genuine people.
Sweet things that have happened in Nepal.
