Mugu Trip, post death escaping, part III

Image
taking meal in Bhulbhule( A FCHV's house) From the Bhulbhule, we moved ahead with full stomach having some confidence that we can reach Mugu that day. After few minutes we found some wide and open place. It is called Patan, a plain area for cattle grazing (it’s plateau terrain though). We started shouting in elation that we found such wonderful place in the lap of the mountain since we had crossed two deadly places before we found it. I made somersaulting over the grass ground and two of my friends cheered and started clapping hands. It was such a pleasant moment that we did not care what other might think about what we were doing. Passersby, shepherds, cottage hotel owners, sheep, horses, donkeys and other cattle we could see them lost in their own world. Patan We took some sips of cold but delicious water there. We felt as if we were taking the taste of amrit (a nectar of the god that makes them immortal) directly from god Shiva. We took some snaps there and vi

LOOT the Haaku Kaale

Haaku Kaale: superb; LOOT: intellectual crime movie: amazed by the concept; salute to Saugat Malla( haaku Kaale) and Nishchal Basnet( director). These people broke the general concept of audience:' nepali movie not worth watching.' Who says now after watching LOOT. We expect such movie in the future. Saugat has great potentiality in acting, so natural and flawless; never seen before such flawless Nepali actor. LOOT established new paradigm in Nepali Cine industry. LOOT team has done fantastic job: you guyz are wonderful ...keep it up...!!! These characters do not act they make live show plucking the real natural surroundings. It seems overuse of Nepali slangs but they look natural. Every slang they use is in real way. We can see and hear in almost every scene, ‘ke laamo jasto hereko….machis…m_ji…maa ___ …___baan…’ but director used it very cleverly but in natural way ‘coz these slangs are integral part of such character in reality, no doubt. Amazing way of presen

Vehicle dropped us in Jinha village of Botamalika in Jumla. It was early in the morning we had started feeling warm weather, at the same time sun was rising at the East. From here we had to walk on our foot let’s say in other way: in the 11 number vehicle hehehe…!!! Everybody got off the car and started packing the backpack wearing glasses and painting sunblock on the face. Almost everyone had the stick to support themselves. Some people tried for tea but we did not. We said, ‘shuvashya shighram…!’ we three people Mr. Pradip (Unicef), Mr. Shyam (RHD Surkhet) and I walked on our own. After few minutes, we heard the blasting. When we reached nearby, blasting was for road construction. Asking army man there, we moved ahead as he mentioned about the road, ‘this road is short but difficult and that road is easy but long.’ ‘Can we go for short one?’ He answered easily, ‘yes you can.’ We followed the short road passing through the trail made by road construction.We asce

5 th June, 2012 Traveling is my hobby never the less I always mention about. Enjoying it is half achievement of one's life. Seeing is belief moreover internalization: it can happen only by traveling. But some traveling are difficult, when we conquered those difficult ones, they will remain as a sweet memory in our mind. We moved towards Kalikot from Surkhet at 8 AM. We halted in Guranse, the cold place in Dailekh and took coffee there. We moved down to Tallo Dungeshor where Lohore Khola merged into Karnali River. Here in Tallo Dungeshor, We met frenz from Unicef and GIZ there. We took lunch with fish curry. It was delicious and yummy.  Against the upstream of Karnali River, we always move along the side of this river.  Leaving the Madhyapahadi highway in the Saigaon our wheels rolled over the road built by cutting the cliff.Madhyapahadi highway passes through the Dailekh and catches Achham crossing the Karnali River at Belkhet.  From Khidkijyula, the road is not smoo
