Acabou-se. Estamos neste momento em Doha a espera do nosso voo para Londres. Para tras fica uma historia bonita, para relembrar e tentar voltar a repetir.<br />
Falando do trabalho...que ja nao falamos a muito tempo, os ultimos dias foram passados a correr para tentar conseguirmos alcancar os objectivos miminos a que nos proposemos.<br />
Colocamos no posto de saude os nossos posters sobre prevencao de infeccoes, lavagem das maos e saude alimentar.<br />

Infelizmente nao tivemos tempo para ver a adesao da populacao as nossas ideias. A ONG prometeu mandar noticias.<br />
Fizemos o nosso relatorio final, deixamos algumas ideias para os futuros voluntarios, felizmente ficamos a saber que 2 novos voluntarios vao trabalhar na aera da saude a partir do inicio do proximo mes continuando assim o nosso trabalho.<br />

<br />
O ultimo dia foi particularmente doloroso. Despedirmo-nos da nossa familia custou-nos muito. Foi uma experiencia muito intensa e fortes lacos foram criados.<br />
Saimos do Nepal realizados, encontramos o que estavamos a procura, superou as nossas expectativas e sem duvida mudou a nossa forma de ver o mundo.<br />
Somos uns sortudos e temos que dar mais valor a isso.<br />
<br />
Espero que tenham gostado de ter vivido connosco esta nossa aventura no Nepal e aconselhamos a seguirem o nosso exemplo.<br />
Se estiverem interessados podemos dar umas dicas. =))<br />

Ate ja<br />
<br />
<br />
PS: Nao encontrei o yeti....o misterio fica por resolver ate o nosso regresso para o tao desejado trekking ao Evereste.<br />
<br />
<br />
It´s finish. We are in Doha waiting for the flight back to London. We left behind a lovely story, to remember and to try to do again.<br />
Talking about work...the last days were spend running aroud to finish what we try to acomplished.<br />
We´ve put some posters about hand higiene technique, prevention of infection and some nutritional advices.<br />
The last day in Tinpiple was especially painful. It was hard to day goodbye to our host family. A very deep connection between us was created trough this unique experience.<br />
We left Nepal with the feeling of the duty a done. We found what we were looking for and for sure will change the way we see the world.<br />
We are realy lucky and we have to apreciate that.<br />
<br />
I hope that you enjoyed to leave this adventure with us and we sugest to try it...<br />

Fomos passar uns dias maravilhosos a bela cidade de Pokhara.<br />
Cidade a beira de um lago com uma vista maravilhosa para os Himalaias. Nao sei se se lembram mas ja tinhamos tido uma experiencia previa a ver os Himalaias quando fomos a Nagarkot mas nada que se compare com esta ultima. Para podermos desfrutar melhor a vista passamos a primeira noite em Sarangkot, aldeia que nos oferece a melhor vista possivel pras montanhas, se tivermos sorte... E tivemos mesmo. Acordamos bem cedinho para ver o nascer do sol e qual foi o nosso espanto quando nos deparamos com um censario que jamais iremos esquecer.<br />

Uma das reliquias da cidade e' o World Peace Pagoda, templo budista oferecido por monjes japoneses.<br />
Enfim, foi o lugar ideal para descansar e acabar a nossa aventura em grande.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="PT">O natal do Nepal chegou. Sem frio, sem neve , sem pai natal mas nao necessariamente sem prendas...como vao ver mais a frente.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="PT">Este importante periodo de 10 dias corresponde a celebracao da victoria da luta dos Deus do bem contra o Mal. Tenho a certeza que os Nepaleses tem pena que os Deuses do mal nao tenham aguentado mais uns diazinhos.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="PT">Os ultimos 3 dias sao muito imporantes para o Nepales, dia 15, onde toda a familia mata pelo menos um ou mais cordeiros e galinhas, quem for mais rico avia tambem um bufalo, tudo isso apos um complexo acto cerimonioso onde o animal tem de abanar a cabeca em sinal de os Deuses estarem felizes com a oferta e o animal estar pronto para receber o golpe unico da kukura que o ira decapitar...<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="PT">Dia 16, onde os carros, motas, camioes sao benzidos para garantir um ano sem acidentes e sem problemas...bem precisam de rezar para sair incolume deste transito infernal.. Algumas familias matam mais um cordeiro e deitam o sangue do pobre animal em cima dos meios de transporte na tentativa de reinforcar a bencao... de certeza pessoas nao tao confiantes da sua pericia nas estradas...<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="PT">E finalmente, dia 17, o grande dia, em que o mais velho da familia distribui Tikas (arroz com corante encarnado e colocado na testa das pessoas) aos outros membros da familia mais novos. No’s como novos membros da famila tambem tivemos direito de receber varias Tikas. Ai e’ que entra a parte das prendas. Como na nossa sociedade, o Natal e mais um negocio que outra coisa, aqui o Dashain nao poderia ser de outra forma. Se um homem recebe uma Tika, ele tem que dar dinheiro ao homem que da, enquanto que as mulheres recebem dinheiro aquando da Tika. O que para nos serviu perfeitamente, uma vez que a Rita recebia dinheiro, dava mo a mim discretamente e eu voltava a entrega-lo a mesma pessoa. <o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="PT">A expectativa criada a volta do Dashain pela nossa familia nao foi realmente alcancada... Um sentimento de desilusao apoderou se de nos no final do terceiro dia...estavamos a espera de mais alegria, mais canticos e </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="PT">dancas, mais cerimonias. Eles podiam festejar o Dashain em um, dois dias, e voltar a trabalhar a seguir...que e o que este pais realmente precisa. Trabalhar para deixar de estar na cauda dos paises mais pobres da Asia.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

I’m sure that the Nepali people wouldn’t mind that the Evil resisted a bit longer.<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">The last 3 days are very important for the Nepali people, on the 15<sup>th</sup> every family sacrifice one or more goat, chicken, and who his rich may afford to sacrifice a <st1:city><st1:place>Buffalo</st1:place></st1:city>. It’s a complex ceremony where the animal has to shake the head, meaning that the gods are happy and the goat is ready to be decapitated by the Kukura.<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">On the 16<sup>th</sup>, it’s the day of the blessing of the mottos, cars and trunks to be sure that another year without accidents will happen. Some families sacrifice a goat and send is blood to the vehicles to reinsure the blessing. For sure, people with no confidence in their driving skills.<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">Finally the biggest day, the 17<sup>th,</sup> it’s the Tikas’s day. The eldest puts rice with colouring on the forehead of the others members of the family. Because we were the new members of the family we also received the Tika. And now it’s the gifts part. Like our society, Christmas becomes more a business then other thing, here the Dashain couldn’t be other way… When a man receives the Tika, he has to give money to him, instead of a woman that receives money. For us it was perfect, because Rita received money, give it to me discretely and when my turn arrived I would give the money back.<o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal">The expectation created by the family was not fulfilled, we were expecting more happiness, more dancing and singing, more ceremonies. This Dashain festival could be done in 1 or 2 days and people could be back to work sooner…because that’s what this country need. Work to escape to the bottom of the poorest country of <st1:place>Asia</st1:place>.<o:p></o:p></div> <span lang="PT"><br />

Nota-se que o ensino do ingles e uma das suas prioridades nao so para os alunos mas tambem para proveito proprio. O que mais nos espantou foi a sua ignorancia do mundo que o rodeia.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><b><span lang="PT" style="mso-ansi-language: PT;"></span></b></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="PT" style="mso-ansi-language: PT;">Finalmente conseguimos produzir alguma coisa palpavel! Depois de algumas desilusoes iniciais, conseguimos convence-los a aceitar algumas das nossas ideias.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="PT" style="mso-ansi-language: PT;">Mas nao foi facil, ate porque esta semana comecou no posto de saude um novo responsavel, ou seja, mais um entrave as nossas ideias.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="PT" style="mso-ansi-language: PT;">Uma das ideias que tivemos foi de implementar um registo dos pensos efectuados. Para tal compramos 2 capas e fizemos um documento no Word de forma a ser possivel uma consulta rapida quer por funcionarios ou voluntarios. E claro para haver uma continuidade de cuidados .</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="PT" style="mso-ansi-language: PT;">Outra ideia bem aceite foi a de identificar as salas do posto com placas a referir de que sala se trata, como sala do medico, sala de pensos, administrativos, etc.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="PT" style="mso-ansi-language: PT;">O novo responsavel do Posto tambem nos pediu que fizessemos um grande placar de metal com o nome do posto para por no exterior.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="PT" style="mso-ansi-language: PT;">Tambem conseguimos convence-los a por um placa pequena na parede exterior com a indicacao “ Mantenham esta area limpa”. Vamos tambem comprar um caixote de lixo para colocar por baixo da placa, visto que limpamos a area toda e as pessoas continuam a deitar lixo para o chao.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="PT" style="mso-ansi-language: PT;">E pronto, ficamos felizes com estas pequenas coisas. Parecem insignificantes para o mundo ocidental mas aqui fazem muita diferenca.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="PT" style="mso-ansi-language: PT;">Aguardamos a chegada das placas...</span><br />
<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><b><span lang="EN-GB">Some small victories</span></b></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="EN-GB">Finally we were able to produce something that we can see!! After some frustrations in the beginning, we made them accept some of our ideas. But it wasn’t easy, even because a new incharge started this week, another one to stop changes.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="EN-GB">One of our first ideas was to create a record of the dressings. For that we bought 2 folders and we’ve done a document on Microsoft Word so that a quick check can be done by any employee or volunteer. And of course to have a continuity of care.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="EN-GB">Another idea well accepted was to identify the rooms with plates with the name appropriate like “OPD room”, “ Dressing Room” or “ Administration Room”, etc.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="EN-GB">The new incharge of the health post asked us to do a big plate on metal with the name of the post to put outside.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="EN-GB">We also convince them to do a smaller plate to put in the wall saying “Keep area clean” A bin will be provided by us. It’s annoying that every time we clean the outside it get dirty the next day.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="EN-GB">We are happy for these changes. They look insignificant for the western world but here makes difference.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><span lang="EN-GB">We wait the plates to arrive.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"><br />

Um dos nossos colegas teve uma conversa com o seu “irmao adoptivo” de 21 anos (estudante universitario) e apercebeu-se o quanto e’ dificil este pais evoluir com uma mentalidade assim. Segundo ele o povo nepales nao precisava de governo, o que todos queriam era paz e alegria.So para terem uma ideia, um guia disse-nos que por ano so trabalham 160 dias, o resto sao feriados e festas.

</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">The slogan of this people if peace and happiness. No stress, everything slow, very slow. One of our colleagues had a conversation with is “adoptive brother” of 21 years old and realized that is really difficult for this country to progress with such a mentality. According to him the nepali people don’t need a government, what they want is peace and happiness. A guide also told us that they only work 160 days per year. How is it possible for a country to progress if they only think about bank holidays, partys, singing and dancing…really hard for us to understand, but we have to try.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">We have to admit, this bank holidays are good for us also because we can travel around this beautiful country.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">We went to the amazing and medieval city of <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:city w:st="on">Baktapur</st1:city></st1:place>, UNESCO recognized. It was a really nice day if we don’t consider the rain, the 2h of horrible travel, being robbed by the guy from the bus that charges us 4 times more than normal (even so it was only 1 euro..) and in our way back we caught the wrong bus, walked 45 minutes because of wrong directions given by the police, and we had to travel in a very full night bus, with few lights on the way, every second seemed like our last one because of the high possibility of a fatal accident. Final result: MIGRAINE.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">But continuing in Baktapur. This was the capital of one of the thousand kingdoms that existed in <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:country-region w:st="on">Nepal</st1:country-region></st1:place>. Each kingdom had a capital and a king. This medieval city was very important because of the strategic place that occupied between <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:country-region w:st="on">India</st1:country-region></st1:place> and Tibete. Show us the harmony and equilibrium that exists between different religions, specially Hindus and Buddhists. They can pray in each others temples.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Two of the most important doors of Nepalese art are situated in of the biggest squares. One in gold and another with 2 statues. These statues are really valuable because they are unique. The king cutted the hands of the sculptor once he finished them, to avoid copies.This is another prove that we should read the small letters before we sign a contract.</span></div>bdlamp & Itinhahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12727376077598536726noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3967050338646098339.post-13767554213254997662010-10-01T04:17:00.003-07:002010-10-01T04:17:52.846-07:00Primeira frustracao mas tambem algumas alegrias<meta content="text/html; charset=utf-8" http-equiv="Content-Type"></meta><meta content="Word.Document" name="ProgId"></meta><meta content="Microsoft Word 11" name="Generator"></meta><meta content="Microsoft Word 11" name="Originator"></meta><link href="file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5CADMINI%7E1%5CLOCALS%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml" rel="File-List"></link><style>

Sorridente e bem disposto, este homem tem sempre cha de ervas com leite de bufalo pronto para nos. Sim, leram bem, leite de bufalo. Eu sabia que havia bufalos por aqui...tipo aqueles que se ve nos films de cowboys ou o "danca com lobos"...qual o meu espanto quando ele me leva a ver os seus 2 examplares e vejo la 2 vacas! Eu a pensar, isto e que e um bufalo? Isto e uma vaca!! Mas nao o disse para nao ferir sensibilidades. A unica diferenca que vejo e que sao um pouco mais pequenas que as nossas vacas e tem os cornos virados para dentro....<br />
2 refeicoes por dia de arroz com batatas e sopa e lentilhas confeccionadas pelo nosso 'Ba" ( pai) e tudo o que temos direito em 24 horas. Podemos repetir as vezes que queremos mas devem imaginar que comer um prato desses as 9 da manha e dificil e nao apetece muito...mas la fazemos um esforco porque a proxima refeicao so sera as 1900hrs.<br />

Aqui conhece-se os vizinhos, vive-se com eles, tomam cha, juntam-se para ver TV, dancam, cantam e<br />
riam como uma grande e feliz familia. Da inveja . Simplicidade afinal e felicidade.<br />
Falta referir a surreal experiencia de tomar banho. <br />
Pois bem esuqecam o chuveiro e muito mais a agua quente. Tomamos banho num barracao, sem luz. Temos um balde de 50 litros com um pucaro com o qual nos banhamos e maldizemos!! agua fria a escorrer pelas costas custa mas habituamo-nos. Ficamos prontos para as tarefas arduas que nos aguardam no posto de saude.bdlamp & Itinhahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12727376077598536726noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3967050338646098339.post-26185048032786494982010-09-17T00:34:00.000-07:002010-09-17T00:34:15.630-07:00Ida para Jitpur Depois de 3 dias de introducao, com dicas sobre alimentacao, aulas de nepales, dicas culturais e visitas turisticas, e hora de partir.<br />
Pois bem, hoje vamos sair de Katmandu para viver com a familia de acolhimento em Jitpur.<br />
Ira ser uma experiencia unica viver a real vida do povo do Nepal... Iremos viver numa casa com mais 4 voluntarios, o que e uma grande ajuda para a nossa ambientacao.<br />
Arroz com vegetais 2 vezes ao dia, sopa de lentilhas e pickles ira ser a nossa ementa. E agua quente uma vez por semana...<br />
So poderemos mostrar mais fotos pra semana porque, como devem imaginar, nao ha internet na comunidade.<br />
6feira voltamos para a primeira reuniao de grupo para partilhar as primeiras impressoes..so nessa altura poderemos dar mais novidades.<br />
Desejem-nos sorte.<br />
<br />
<br />
After 3 days of induction with food tips, nepali leassons, cultural tips and tours its time to leave.<br />
Well, today we are leaving Kathmandu to go to leave in Jutpur with our hoste family. Its going to be a unique experience to leave the real life of the nepali people. We are going to leave with 4 more volunteers, they will be a great help for our adaptation.<br />
Rice with vegetables twice a day and lentilles soup and pickles will be our menu. And hot water once a week.<br />
We can only give you more update next week because theur is no internet on the comunity.<br />
Friday we come back to our first meeting to shair first impressions.. So wait for more news.<br />

<br />
Amanha e o grande dia, as 1050hrs comeca a aventura... Primeiro Destino Doha, depois 13 horas a espera para o destino final Kathmandu.<br />
<br />
Como devem imaginar, organizar uma viagem como esta nao e facill...iniciamo-la 'a 2 meses atras.<br />
O primeiro passo foi marcar o aviao, isso por 2 objectivos: tentar arranjar voo mais barato e nao ter hipotese de desistir da viagem...<br />
Escolhemos viajar pela Qatar airways. Reconhecida mundialmente como uma das melhores operadoras da actualidade...<br />
Depois tivemos que arranjar o visto, deslocamo nos ao consulado do Nepal em Londres onde nos deram um visto de 90 dias pela modica quantia de 70 libras... <br />
Nao nos podemos esquecer que vamos pra um pais asiatico e que uma nova gama de doencas e perigos estao mais facilmente ao nosso alcance, por isso tivemos q ter algumas vacinas. As normais que se recebe em Portugal quando crianca como o tetano, VASPR, DT mais Hepatite A (essas a patos pelo NHS) e mais umas quantas 'a nossa escolha como a febre amarela, raiva, encefalite japonesa e outras...essas a doer ( 50 euros cada injeccao, temos que tomar 3). Para saber quais receber foi nos recomendado dirigirnos a uma clinica especialista em viagens, eles fazeram nos uma entrevista e sugeriram nos quais eram as recomendadas. Aconselharam nos a receber a da raiva...a Rita 'e mais cuidadosa, ou direi hipocondriaca... e tambem recebeu a da encefalite japonesa...<br />
Depois tivemos q comprar material pra levar a comecar pela mala de viagem, botas de montanhismo, repelante para melgas de todos os tipos desde braceletes, spray, rede para dormir, dispositivo electronico que se mete no sinto, tudo isto para evitar a Malaria.., lanterna, medicacao, compressas e ligaduras ( tudo patrocinado pelos nossos locais de trabalho ehehehe).<br />

Um sentimento de nudez, impotencia ou solidao apodera-se de nos cada vez que ficamos sem bateria no telemovel ou ficamos sem electricidade em casa. Amaldicoamos as nossas vidas se a internet deixar de funcionar.</div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Mas temos realmente direito de queixar-nos do que quer que seja?</div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Esquecemo-nos que simples gestos como aquecer leite no microondas, fazer download de filmes ou de musicas para o Ipod ou possuirmos algo como uma casa de banho, de ter agua potavel ou mesmo ter canetas e cadernos para poder ir a escola aprender a ler e escrever sao luxos que pouca gente pode gabar-se de possuir, tendo em conta os 7mil milhoes de habitantes que a Terra possiu.</div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Infelizmente pessoas com necessidades basicas podem encontrar-se em todos os 5 continentes. A asia e mais precisamente o Nepal, foi o destino escolhido por nos para realizar esse desejo de melhorar nem que seja um pouco o mundo de alguem. </div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Perguntam-se porque o Nepal?</div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Pois bem, pelo meu desejo de provar que o Abominavel Homem das Neves ou Yeti realmente existe nos Himalaias e demonstrar que a razao de a agua contaminada ser um dos obstaculos mais duros de ultrapassar pelos estrangeiros no Nepal ser devido a utilizacao da agua pelo Yeti na sua higiene pessoal e nao devido as pauperrimas condicoes sanitarias da populacao nepalesa.</div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Agora a serio.</div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">O facto de vivermos em Londres proporciona-nos uma abertura de horizontes muito vasta. Esta grande metropole permite-nos conviver e partilhar conhecimentos com pessoas oriundas dos quatro cantos do mundo. Permite-nos confraternizar com pessoas com experiencias de voluntariado. O brilhozinho nos olhos que vemos quando contam as aventuras por que passaram e o satisfacao que sentiram pelos sorrisos recebidos, convenceram-nos a viver, nos tambem, essa experiencia unica.</div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Dialogar com pessoas oriundas da asia e mais propriamente do Nepal seduziu-nos de imediato. A amabilidade do seu povo, a beleza natural que possiu e a forma harmoniosa como a diversidade religiosa (Hinduismo, Budismo, Islamismo e Shamanismo) consegue sobreviver nesse pequeno estado pouco maior que Portugal, foram factores que determinaram a nossa escolha.</div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Dia 13 de Setembro inicia a Aventura.</div><div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Uma aventura no Nepal.<br />
Sera certamente para nos.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">In the occidental world, things like mobile, TV or computer are no longer only objects, they become owners of the Men. A feeling of nudity, impotence or loneliness takes over us each time our mobile battery is death or we don’t have electricity at home. We curse our life when the internet is not working.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">But do we have the right to complain about anything?</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">We forgot that small gesture like to warm milk on the microwave or to download films or music to the Ipod, or even to have a bathroom, to have drinkable water or to have pens and books to go to school to learn how to read or write, luxury not possible for everyone.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">We can find people with needs from all the 5 continents. <st1:place>Asia</st1:place> and more precisely <st1:country-region><st1:place>Nepal</st1:place></st1:country-region>, was the place chosen by us to try to improve someone’s life.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Why <st1:country-region><st1:place>Nepal</st1:place></st1:country-region>?</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Well, because I’ve always wanted to prove that the Abominable Snowman really exists and to prove that the reason of water be the reason for so many health problems for the foreigners in Nepal is because he takes is bath on is source and not because the population have very poor sanitation conditions. </div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">Now seriously.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The fact that we live in <st1:city><st1:place>London</st1:place></st1:city> made our horizon to grow. This big city facilitates the relationship and the sharing of knowledge between people from all around the world some of them with volunteer experience.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The gleam on their eyes and the satisfaction they felt convinced us to live this unique experience.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">To speak with nepali people seduced us immediately. The kindness of their people, their natural beauty and the harmonious way the religious diversity ( Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam and Shamanis) can survive in the small country, not very bigger then Portugal were the reasons that established our choice.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">The 13 of September our adventure begins.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">An adventure in <st1:country-region><st1:place>Nepal</st1:place></st1:country-region>.</div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">It will be for sure for us…</div><br />
