1st full day :)

Had an awesome sleep. Woke up about 8am to the sight of a semi naked Canadian, I could get use this hostel lark!

Went for breakfast which comprised of mango juice, tea, fried eggs, toast with honey and porridge with banana, was delicious and filling, not bad for $3 a night!

Decided today to go to the monkey temple (Bodhnath Stupa), pretty awesome to see monkeys free roaming. There are an agonising 365 steps to get to the temple but the rewards are awesome!

Whilst there I met a couple of local guys called Lama and Suraj who showed me around the temple and told me lots of history about the Buddha and Buddhists. I was also given access to a family rooftop to take panoramic photos of Kathmandu Valley and was created by my first glimpse of the Himalayas.

We then went to see some more sights and had nepal tea before being sandwiched between them on the back of Suraj’s moped for a life back down.Read more
