farouk, riznal, hil and i went to nepal on a tour package. i was really excited about this trip because nepal sounds so 'out there' and what with the royal massacre story la, the maoist rebels la, the legend of the gurkha army and of course, the great himalayan range, i was ready for some adventure (okaylah... pegi bandar-bandar and by package, apa yang nak adventure sangat pun, kan? hehehe).
i've written down quite an exhaustive account of our trip there in my other blog. http://-silvertongue-.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_-silvertongue-_archive.html -- start from the bottom because i had to break it down into three posts and the recent ones are on top.
n'ways, i prepared myself quite well for this trip by hanging out with the nepali guards kat kilang nih, panic myself by reading news about nepal and memorising the contents of my nepal lonely planet book from cover-to-cover (okaylah... that's a fib... ;-) )
