Nice 2 min. line up / Chizang Magic:)
Close to my guest house yesterday afternoon. Life is going on. If you ask me, he is not doing that for the first time. As a German I can only say: impressive, fantastical and it works! Hmmmmmmmmm I guess you have to have that special something. š
“Hi”, “Hi” “So what are you actually doing right now??????” “Oh I have lice from them, this is why their hair is short.” / interesting concept: revised logic??? /pure panic in my face and instand scratching guaranteed
I walked around and catched a view in the tent. Just like that, just to say hi basically, which I also did.

Breakfast / changed & maintained routine / 9
I found this little restaurant around the corner from where I stay. Super friendly and the food is good. It is called Cheflink. Wifi works perfectly. So I come here on a regular basis and Raju is always happy to see me. The other day I ordered a beer and I shared it with him….
Reality Overkill / One Gorkha pleaseĀ
Today has been a very impactful day in many ways. Met a lot of very interesting people who do great things over here and who want to connect with me. I got introduced to more and more and more “needs”, new people and organizations. “Do you want to join? I am now driving to the…
