This is beautiful... brought back memories of a similar itinerary when I had travelled across Nepal as a videographer filming a series of episodes for the travel section on Good Morning India, a breakfast show.

Love your photos and narration. <3

Thank you, Natasha ❤️ You're such an inspiration that it means a lot coming from you. Is the series still available online? Sounds like you must've had an incredible time!

This post truly brings out the things we miss whenever we take any village or ecotourism here. It’s all about communities and priorities.

Ila , this is lovely (as always). I know this has been said so many times but it felt like I was there. The pics and stories on insta had done a lot of teasing. Glad that this post delivered ☺️

I could go on and on but I won’t. It is so good to see you travel. We could ‘see’ you travel is how good the post is, but then again, I state the obvious. That letter you painted, what does it mean?

Last thing - How is the post from mum coming along?

Keep the travel on, you!

Thank you ❤️❤️ You're the best but you know that already. Will show this comment to my mom and prod her to write her version of all three trips.

P.S. The letter is 'Om' in Ranjana Lipi.

Have been excited for the newsletter ever since you started teasing about your trip to Nepal on Instagram. Such a brilliantly written piece, Ila. Have been planning on visiting Nepal since years now and once the plan comes to fruition, I will make sure to refer to this newsletter again to plan my itinerary. Thank you for sharing your experience!

Sending warmth to you and your mum 🌻

Have been to Nepal in 2008 and loved Patan. We spent a month around thamel and pokhara and trekking . Quite some crazy memories too
