Namaste!
We've arrived safely in Kathmandu. We're staying at Hotel Karma so hopefully that bodes well for us. It's been quite an eye-opening experience just walking around and checking out the city. Lots of local crafts and traffic and people. I read somewhere that the local drivers use their horns more than their brakes. Now I know that to be true. It's chaos out in the narrow streets but a very vibrant place. We're here one more night, then take a bus to Pokhara - another main city, then off to start our first trek a few days later. Our guide, Ganesh Adhikari, seems great so we're psyched about that. Thanks, Erin Sovick of BCM, for the hook up. The website and contact info for our guide service can be found at http://www.asahitreks.com/. I feel we're in good hands with them. Off to explore Kathmandu.
Peace.

Hawaii, Kathmandu, trekking through Nepal, globe trotting.
I've really been trying lately to be a better person. For example, I have been trying to not be jealous, to detach from worldly desires, and most importantly, to wish happiness and success for everyone. Having admitted all that let me just say, I hate you, I hate you, I hate you.
Good karma in Kathmandu...nice. Best of luck on the trek. I know it's going to be fantastic and can't wait to hear about it on the other side.
