Always wanted to go to Nepal

I had a Nepali co-worker in Japan (they are so desperate for English speakers they hire Nepali). She was the first person I ever heard proudly tell people she avoided dating non-Nepali because she wanted to carry on their bloodline / legacy. And no one called her racist.

You’ll have to post a lot of pics

I keep seeing adverts for English teachers in places like Japan or Korea

and... I would be so godamn nervous about doing that

I don't know exactly what I'll be doing there yet, but my buddy went last year for the same reason and they spent a week in Kathmandu, a week at the Military Academy there, and a week building mud huts in some village.

how much work is involved in building mud huts?

step 1: get mud
step 2: make it sorta brick shaped
step 3: build hut
rinse, repeat

It should be interesting

Physical labor but uh. Not mentally taxing yeah.

The roads over there are spooky

@Salo Saloson you could also do a mud hut with wattle at the structural element and mud smeared on

I’ve been to a part of India near there

Roads are 30000% yikes

Railroads were all built by the English

I was on some pretty bad roads today. Went up to some tiny town by the Canadian Border

I want to say some airport over there near Sikkim or Nepal is the most dangerous on earth

Woah some of you have white names discord is not working

Normal on my end

Also yes new rule: if you go abroad post cool pics

I want to see all the Buddhist temples in Kathmandu

Are they mostly Buddhist or Hindu?

I think a bit of both

Makes sense yeah

Everything will be cheap which’ll be cool

funny enough my Great Grandfather converted to Hinduism

Interesting. Did he live over in that part of the world?

How do you convert? Interested in knowing how diff religions convert and the time it takes

Islam you say a sentence three times. Jews dissuade you from converting and it takes years lol

Nope, born and died in Montana. He found some old copies of the Vedas and kept buying more books on the subject.....or at least that's what I've been told

"A Hindu in Montana" sounds like a movie title

He was a stone mason, and he built a few monuments around Montana with quotes from the Bhagavad Gita

Sounds about a few steps from Ted K. “Montana man adopts odd beliefs in a cabin”

Sounds like 7 years in Tibet

Except like

Lotsa years outside Bozeman

"Let me tell you about Dharma, kids"

I like to think I can still listen to the other side, even if I don't take anything they say seriously anymore. But day by day it gets more unbearable, especially NPR.

@Stephen - TX npr is my radio default in my car. Leave it on for 5 mins on way to work until I can’t take it anymore

Last 3 times I listened for a bit they mentioned something very jewish

It depends on when I tune in. If it's just typical neo-con crap, I can calmly listen to that. But when they start getting into transgender and blatant anti-white rhetoric I have to turn it off immediately.
