Are you wearing green today?


Are you wearing green today? An Irish saying holds that "If you're lucky enough to be Irish, then you're lucky enough." On St. Patrick's Day it seems that everyone is Irish.

It seems on St. Patrick's Day is celebrated with parades and fireworks, dances and parties, drinking Irish beer and whiskey and wearing green.

Namaste Nepal


Hi Friends, been a long time since I typed any post. I had a great time in my Nepal trip, made many friends, just want to share my experience with you all....

Our main destination was Muktinath, for that we first reached Pokhara a hillstation, from there we had to take a flight to Jomsom and then from there a jeep was waiting for us to reach Muktinath. But as they say if God does not call you, you can never get to see him...That is what happens, first day there was snow in Jomsom, so we could not board the flight, second day there was technical error so we had to give away the whole idea of seeing Muktinath.....

Everyone were disappointed, but what to do...Anyways to cheer up ourselves we took our Driver Suraj idea that we can take the Mountain Flight which will show us the Himalayas and Everest lill closer...Glad we went for it, it was the best thing we did, we met many foreigner who became our Facebook friends... It was mind blowing experience, everyone were very thrilled and filled with excitement....It was my first unforgettable 14 Feb, i was top of the world, literally....

Nepal is beautiful place, but there is very less to see, like Pashupathi temple, Sleeping Vishnu are must see. We also visited Casino for the first of our life. The climate is also great...But one problem, there is power cut that too for long hours...And the hotel we stayed was so called 3 Star and did not even had a courtesy to put the generator and also lazy to even offer a candle for our room....

Lastly before leaving Nepal,we stayed in birth place of Buddha, Lumbini, we stayed in Vice President suite, with a Big with Jacuzzi. and we also had royal dinner too...The place is good, to visit the Monastery, Buddha birthplace and Asoka pillar, you have to take auto rickshaw, but that was also nice experience...

Though our Nepal trip was filled with ups and down, but i can never forget the people hospitality and the beauty of Nepal...
