So we’ve been in Kathmandu for about four days now, and we have been as busy as heck. We haven’t had a single meal- save for breakfasts- not at a restaurant. Good thing food isn’t too expensive. The weirdest thing about Kathmandu though, is unless you’re in a fancy shop, you shouldn’t pay the price that the shopkeeper asks for the item you’re buying. Shopkeepers will always overprice their goods, and you have to try make them sell it to you for a good price by bargaining. This means that if they are selling something for 900rs and its worth 700rs you would ask to buy it for 550rs and you would argue back and forth until you either agree on a price, or walk away.
Anyway, we’re leaving tomorrow, which means you probably means that you won’t see another blog from me for a couple of weeks.
I meant to put up some pictures because as they say; A picture is worth a thousand words, but... I have absolutely no time (sorry mum)
