  1. it was 7 years ago i went. it was before the road was built to jomsom. but i think the walking track stays off the road and is still really nice. I think it get busy at some times of the year.

    It really easy to get around, I think i got a bus form Kathmandu to chitwan. you don't get hassled much compared to India.

  2. i didn't meet any one that use ephedra gerardiana as medicine. but i did find some that had been munched on by goats. and i think the local use it for fuel also.

    i got around by bus mostly, i did take a flight from pokhara to jomson and walked back. pretty easy trek. (i'm not that hardcore)

    i also got to try yarchagumba in Kathmandu.

  3. I went a few years ago now. The mountains are cool but I also loved it on the terai. Chitwan national park was a highlight for me.

    here is some pictures of some ephedra near marpha.

  5. Meh, I'm just thinking about places like remote communities. Obviously you people have never fucking been to one.

    blah blah blah

    do you see the point yet?? I think yall need to visit an old mission

    I think you need to watch this film before you go to a mission next http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwuJbJaCLtc&feature=youtu.be

    you might not be so judgmental if you have a understanding of why remote communities are the way they are.

    A necessary and beautiful film, Kanyini looks at the world's oldest living culture in a way that's never been seen before.

    A listed traditional owner of Uluru, former Indigenous Person of the Year, Bob Randall acts as our guide to "Kanyini" which he describes as the principle of connectedness through caring and responsibility that informs all aspects of Aboriginal life.

    Bob poingnantly explains why his people are now struggling in a modern world and what needs to be done for them to move forward. As Bob explains, "The Earth is our Mother. That makes you and me brother and sister".

  6. Great ending. I loved the whole lot, I only started watching it about 2 months ago. I think binge watching made me love this show heaps more then if i was along for the ride for the whole 5 years.

    I did love it but I am glad it over really, it gave me a bit of anxiety worrying about whats going to happen in the next episode.


  7. It is the best beer in the world! i have this book sacred and herbal beers and was inspired from that.

    but the one i bottled was pretty basic. just a ginger beer kit with added coca and damiana.

    i am making at the moment sassafras, damiana, ginger, Muira Puama, coca, chocolate and vanilla beer.... not sure if it really a beer.
