I was drawn into Tibetan Buddhism on autopilot in 94/95, that changed everything :-)
Will be back there very soon unless something puts a stop to it!
Buddhism, I see. That's great!
When you come just keep us updated. We can also have a small SN meetup!

Oh, you're in Kathmandu or Nepal? Certainly!
Actually I'm planning to be for at least 3 months, ideally renting as super cheap room, from the country I'm in now I can easily come & go 2-3 times a year.
Might even be doing a business visa, time will show...

No, I'm from India but I'm super close to western Nepal. My home is on the one side of a river that separates India and Nepal. You know we travel freely to Nepal without Visa or passport. The Himalyas in the western side of Nepal and India are also super cool! If you like, you can come to India this time. Let me be your happy mate while we can do hiking, camping, trekking in the most beautiful of all the Himalyas!

Ah, I see! I hope to be in Lumbini at the end of November, when Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche is doing the first fall seminar there :-)
The last time I attended that was also the last time Urgyen Tulku was alive as well...
Ideally I'd like to get a motorbike too, just need to figure out how things work when skipping drivers license, insurance and all of that haha!
reply
Skipping a driving license is very easy here. Nobody asks. And if thy do, you get a challan of hardly 4 to 5 dollars, and most importantly with that challan you get some days when you can't be penalised again. So, it's easy. It's only tough if there's some accident by the rider/driver.

Yeah, all focus should be on not getting into trouble in the first place, and if that were to ever happen I would totally expect to somehow compensate for that in the first place...
But then maybe I'll even be able to find an agent that can help getting a real license in Kathmandu, I guess that should be a very basic test!
reply
That's good thinking! Don't you have a licence from your country?
