TYPICAL NEPALI DANCE

The clip below was captured at Godavari. I was there for my studies. On the way to Phulchoki there is one pond and picnic spot. Some youngsters were there for picnic with madal, typical nepali musical instrument. They were busy with their stuffs and i was near by them to collect water from Dhungedhara. One boy from the group started playing with madal. After this one local man came and started dancing. I luckly captured this clip. When he knew that i was shooting, he became more excited. At last he asked me for some money and i let him 10NRs.

LONDON TOUR

I was in London for one week starting from 4th June to 11th June 2007. That was my first visit to London. I had been there to meet my sister and brother in law. Along with that i had my research work at Royal Botanical Garden, Kew. I got very nice cooperation from the Professors at Royal Botanical Garden.
That was the golden chance that i met them and at the same time managed to work at Botanical Garden. On second day, i met one of my collegue from Nepal, Mr. Ananda Thapa.
The time i spent in London was memorable.
I noticed couple of things in London. The first thing i noticed was Indians. From the Immigration to last day i stayed, everywhere i saw large number of indians. Sometimes i used to get confused whether i am in India or in London ?
The buildings are always confusing because everywhere they look same. The most important thing i noticed in London and in rest of Europe is - Pedestrians get priority while crossing the roads.
The clip below is some of the places i visited in London:

CROWDED VENDORS IN KATHMANDU

Kathmandu is being one of the most densely populated city in south asia. Roads are narrower and dense hectic traffic are the main problems in Kathmandu. During last 10 years, people from different corners of the nation are forced to move Kathmandu due to internal conflict (maoist problem). Because of this, population in kathmandu increased in sky roketing manner.
Clip below is just an example how crowdy is Kathmandu.
