Dear Ann,
While Nepal was always a place I had dreamed of visiting I leave knowing it's somewhere I'll never return to.
The two weeks spent there were quite the adventure from trekking the Annapurna mountains to just surviving the poorly kept, rubbish cluttered cliff side roads. We never quite knew what to expect when ordering food, one day it might be one thing and the next a completely different interpretation of the same dish.
It was disappointing to see such picturesque landscape ruined by people who think it's ok to toss their rubbish on the ground or out the car window and a country who has no system in place to dispose of it.
But there were things I loved about the country, like the prayer flags hanging everywhere you can possibly imagine, getting the opportunity to meet some amazing people and who can forget White Mischief their vodka!!
We were eagerly awaiting our departure to Delhi to meet Sabrina and make our way to the Taj Mahal. Unfortunately Jet Airways had other ideas when canceling our flight after hours of delays. On the upside it was nice to be put up in luxury accommodation after our usual budget digs and be spoilt with a huge buffet breakfast (Check out the photos below). The following day was yet again totally chaotic at the airport causing numerous arguments and punch ups, and yes we did cause a couple!! Oops!!
Eventually a new flight was arranged which was an obvious delight to all the passengers many who had gone crazy at some point over the past 26 hours...this even got a few Indian men dancing...probably too much White Mischief!!
You would have gone mental at the airport...I think I've taken on your usual role on this trip..besides planner extraordinaire!!! Haha
Missing you and wishing you were here to see the Taj Mahal with me...I've been waiting so long!!
Love Em xx
