Greetings from Kathmandu, Nepal!



We arrived at the airport about about 9:30 yesterday morning. We immediately went to the hotel to meet up with the representative from IFRE, Hom seemed to understand that we were all really tired and kept his comments very brief. After a round of nepali tea and some basic language lessons with the owner of the hotel we went to get lunch.

I think we figured out pretty quick that we weren't going to last very long after being up for so long. Luckily Ryan and Margaret were there to herd us around kathmandu for a few hours. I think we all had bigger plans but ended up heading back to the hotel shortly after lunch, if it weren't for a few rousing games of UNO and that game where we put someones name on your forehead we would've crashed right there. Personally, I made it to about 8PM before finally succumbing to exhaustion. Fast forward 14 hours and I woke up feeling normal for the rist time in almost 3 days.

Heading to lunch with the IFRE office soon, time to begin culture immersion.
