go to bed by midnight
Nepal 2 years ago

I’ve been living in Nepal for about three months now and because it’s totally a morning society, I’ve been going to bed much earlier. I’ve stayed up past midnight less than a dozen times in the past 3 months, which is incredibly because I don’t think I went to bed before midnight more than a dozen times in the past 2 years before Nepal (I was living in Spain, a very late night society).

I’m still going to bed too late, but too late here is any time after about 9:30. Almost the whole city is up before 6 AM! It’s crazy, I’m not a morning person at all.

Question......

How is it that you travel so much? Spain, Nepal….where to next? I am very curious to hear the story behind all the globe trotting…
Does your job require you to move around a lot? Are you a fugitive?? (hahaha) Or, are you just a wanderer for the time being?
(I guess there are so many reasons people travel that choosing just one could difficult. But I am just very curious…)

I missed this questions completely...

Sorry it took so long to respond, I didn’t see this comment until another one went below it.

I lived in Spain for a bit more than two years because that’s where I spent my last two years of University (after a year studying abroad I decided there was no way in hell I was going back to the US). I’m living in Nepal because I’m doing an internship here for an NGO. I don’t really have an actual job, but it’s an internship and that’s a start I guess.

Mostly I’m just a bit peripatetic and that’s the only way I’d want it to be.

Hi :)

Thankyou for all the cheers!
What are you doing in Nepal? Whereabouts are you staying?
I’m planning on visiting Nepal in the next couple of years.

hi

Thank you for your cheers.

I’m doing an internship with an environmental NGO in Kathmandu. I’ve been here since September and have about another 2.5 months until I have to leave because of visa restrictions. I live in Kathmandu, although I have gotten out of the city to go trekking a bunch of times and will do some field work also before I leave.
