TRAVERSE 94
just two thousand rupees, with no charge for the puncture repair as we were guests in Burtibang. Nonsense, an extra thousand was slipped their way, no doubt all of us providing good karma to Lord Shani.
Reluctant to take the extra cash, the mechanics yet again proved that the people of Nepal are some of the most giving you will come across, not financially rich, not abundant in the material, the people of Nepal offer much more than needless consumer items. The people of Nepal offer a nation that is rich in other ways and always welcoming to an unsolicited traveller, a rider whose roadside misadventures often lead to connections and experiences that invite you to“ buy the boys a beer”.
