From the mountains to the plains

As development work goes, field work do let you get some fresh air every once in a while and also lets your eyes soak up some greenery and scenery. A random field trip took me to the mid hills of Central Nepal and the terrain on the way Sindhuli is what I consider beautiful.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
We started off from Kathmandu early in the morning and our first stop was at Dhulikhel to refuel ourself before we started what was going to be a hectic day of driving around. </div>

After the mountains we were greeted by yellow paddy fields and mid hills. As you drive you can sense and feel of change in the landscape. From the mountains to the plains to the mid hills and to the terrai, all in one drive is quite something. Through this drive you come to realize that Nepal is quite geographically diverse. </div>

There is something calm and beautiful about these places in between our destinations that makes the ride worth while. The best part of traveling away from Kathmandu is, the clarity. The sharpness in the scenery changes as soon as we exit the capital city. Less pollution caters to fresher air and clearer view. </div>

And to end the tiring day there was the orange sky that said goodbye. But the picture does no justice to how beautiful the sky looked at dusk. As the sun was setting it painted the sky orange and yellow and again the change from yellow to dark was just a beautiful transition to watch with a warm cup of local tea. </div>

All the photos were taken on the phone and through a moving car so it isn't of the best quality. But hope it brings you all a little bit calm as it did to me. Enjoying some of the perks of being in development while I can and trying to make the most out of it.</div>

Working in Development come along with its fair share of difficulties and perks, one of the perks being traveling to the districts and engaging with different grass-root level communities. The people of this particular village- Phulbari, treat me like one of their own and while working together I have formed a bond with them that has made traveling and working with the community there a much easy and comfortable. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Phulabari is a top a hill on the way to Bhakundey Besi of Kavre. On a clear day the view from up here is amazing, the view of the himalaya range, the floating cloud and the wide spread green lush - it is almost magical. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
So, like I've mentioned earlier one of the other perks of field visit is the pure and organic food. It is very unlikely to find pure organic food in the city, but the villages have a different story all together. And trust be you when I say you will never be able to find milk as pure and raw as in the villages! </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
If you think the packaged popcorns are yummy, you sure haven't tried the local popcorns yet. Be it boiled, fried or popped, corn is a very common snack here in the villages and also in the city. But popcorn made on a mud vessel and over firewood is filled with unique flavors that is totally worth indulging in. </div>

I always learn something new during my field visits. This time while going around the village I encountered a very weird looking insect. It was my first time seeing this particular insect and I wouldn't even notice it if someone else hadn't point it out to me. I learned that if this insect makes noises then it is suppose to be a bad omen, it was very interesting that people still believe in such superstitions. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Another perk of traveling away from the city is always the view. I have always been fascinated by lights, specially the night view of all the flickering and still lights from above the hills is breath taking. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is always something so calm and serene about the hills that take away all the anxiety and wary. Field visits always means healthy food, fresh pollution free air, interesting people, beautiful nature and healthy mind. But it also means early mornings, bumpy roads and crazy workload, but nonetheless it is always an adventure.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Until the next field visit and until the next blog post.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To finding little adventures and making memories.</div>
