Takliv! On the rooftop!

Det er på taket det skjer:) Her lages det mat, man kan tørke klær, ta seg en dusj. Veldig greit om vinteren spesielt, for det er taket varmest! Inne er det kaldt!
Its soo interesting too watch people in daily activities on the rooftop:)

Himalaya

Etter lang tid uten regn begynte det å bli nokså tjukk fogg/støvdekke over byen. Regnet som kom denne uka var derfor kjærkomment, og plutselig ble sikten så mye bedre. Fra taket på huset der jeg nå befinner meg, kunne vi derfor nyte synet av denne utsikten dagen etter. Utrolig!

Getting used to live in Nepal

So after a week in Nepal, I'm starting to understand a little bit what it means to live here. For the people who have access to electricity almost 11 hours of the total 24 hours it is shut of. Not to get hit by cars is also a challenge, not to mention cold showers. However, the people are really nice here, and to have a person to cook and wash for me is really a nice experience, though I'm not quite used to it yet. Today I went to fix access to internett, so that I don't have to use cafées for that. Actually it was closed, but I got help anyway, so now they will come and install it on monday:) In Norway, if something is closed, it is really closed. But here they really focuses on the customer, which I think is really nice.

When I went to the office to extend my visa I had to wait for hours to get it if I didn't pay a little something extra. Because I don't support that kind of deals, I waited. So I really nead a good deal of patience:)

I really look forward to go to a Nepali church. I'm going to one on saturday. Here they actually go to church on saturdays and not on sundays! And all I can say is: why not?

Midt nede i handlegatene i Tamel jobbes det med husbygging...
Building houses in Nepal. Or at least I think that is what they are doing:)

Vaskeplassen

Området der jeg bor heter faktisk vaskeplassen. Her ser dere grunnen. Dette er altså ett utendørs vaskeri der man kan få vasket klærne sine...

Første uka i Nepal har gått kjempefort, og inntrykkene er mange. For øyeblikket noe kaotisk, det er vanskelig å sortere alt, slik at en ikke blir totalt overveldet.
Å krysse veier er foreksempel ikke så lett, for i trafikken er det så og si ingen regler, og fotgjengere har på ingen måte noen rettigheter.
