Trekking 29/11/16

29/11/16

We went out trekking today and saw loads of rural life and how the people keep the land.

They are currently prepping for winter.

We saw a little child around 6 years old so deep in meditation that he didn't twitch or anything when the three of us walked past. Very peculiar.

Dipak told us of the hierarchy in Nepal and how depending on essentially which stock you are from entirely related to the type of job you have (called the caste system).

He also said the hierarchy of what jobs lads want to do goes, British Gurkas, Indian army, Nepalese Gurkas, doctor, pilot, engineer, architect etc... Pretty cool the the BA was at the top however apparently it is very difficult to get into and there are still bribes occurring to get people in which is super not cool.

Ace being involved with the Himalaya.

Found a new beer called nePAL ice 7% had a few jars before conking out having watched a foggy sunset.Read more
