after 3 weeks..

22 days of volunteering in an organic farm in the Ilam region of Nepal has come to it's conclusion, we now sit in an interweb cafe shop in Pokhara, after almost a 16hrs uncomfortable bus ride. Today we relax, shop around Pokhara, for tomorrow we start our 10 day trek of the Annapurna Sanctuary.So to update ya'll on our adventure thus far.

Farm life....
Farming is A LOT of work, or from my perspective anyway. Although it was far from what I expected our Wwoofing experience to be, it was an exciting adventure. And to paint for you a vague picture, well, here are some pictures. 

We also attended a Nepali wedding. And as mentioned on the previous blog, the wedding celebration took two days.And here are some pictures taken from those two days.

But it wasn't all work, although for the most part it was, we did find some time for ourselves, time of natural exploration of its rightful epic grandeur. We sat thru a hail storm, explored the river, and journeyed through the mountains to visit Mai Pokhari (a sacred lake) and a Waterfall (which took 12hrs of walking time). 

And after 22 days of adventure, we now sit only a day away from another; tomorrow we start another adventure, a 10 day trek to the Annapurna Sanctuary.

So there it is, an update for those who are following this blog. Sorry it took so long to post another update, and it will probably take another 10 days for the next one to be posted. I dont know if there is internet access up in the mountains. Thank you for all your prayers, dear friends. See you in 10 days..
