I love being in a country where I can pick my nose freely and talk about my bowel movements. Finally made it out of Manali and am back on the move. Left town on the 20th and not much happened during our last few days. Well, other than the dozens of calls and offers from random men who saw us at the wedding and wanted our company. An apple farmer I spoke with for all of 10 minutes had his birthday party 2 nights in a row hoping I would show up for him. One man ...

I am behind the times. So sorry. So so much to catch up on. I'll try to keep it brief, but we all know how difficult that seems to be for me. Time to spin some yarn. Our last week in Nepal was amazing. We headed back to Kathmandu for a few days. Our first night back we went to this class little attic bar to watch our old hippie friend Marcus play with a blues and rock band. Mostly old covers from the 70s but it was awesome.

All in all we taught 5 classes at the public school and only 2 in the monastery, but it's been an experience to last a lifetime. My grade 10 class wa...

Time seems to have slowed to a snails pace and I have no problem with that. Our first 5 days in Nepal have felt like weeks, we've discovered and learned so much already in our short time here. Well let's back things up a bit now shall we? Friday morning we made our big move out to the monastery. Leaving our hotel was a bit sad. Obviously I made good friends with the service staff there. The night bartender was beyond impressed by my Nepali skills, as in he could...

What a ride it has been so far. Let's jump way way back to July, my most epic return to Canadian soil. Starting off with a weekend in Vancouver with my brother and some amazing old friends. Catching up with the savvy Ed Witzke and the long lost friend Courtland Sandover-sly was amazing. Moving back to E-town brought on tonnes of friends, family and good times. From camping in Cadomin with my dad, to lake days at my mom's cabin, to countless dinners a coffees. Spe...
