Morning Walk

I went for a walk one Sunday morning with Jimmy Carson and Bhaju Ram Shrestha. Here are some of the photos that Jimmy took.

Bhaju Ram and me. The mountains were very clear which is unusual!

It seems that the environmental movement in Nepal is still focusing on the larger issues of climate change than the personal "No Litter" campaigns. Is is a very popular picnic area that obviously doesn't have any rubbish cleanup.



For the Holiest river in Nepal, the Bagmati River is a flowing rubbish dump and open sewer. It would be wonderful if there could be a concerted effort to clean it up. It is fortunate for you that no smell-a-vision as it was gross.

  1. Enjoying your journey/experiences in Nepal. Fantastic shots of you on the elephant, and so many more worth commenting on.

    So much poverty hey? I know you are seeing more poverty in Nepal than in PNG...
