Because my sister was living in Kathmandu for 6 months and I wanted to share her experience, I decided to fly to Nepal in the summer of 2010. The idea was to stay in Kathmandu for a few days, visit the Himalaya and than travel to New Delhi (India) by land. My sister would come home together with me and Nieneke, a cousin who liked to join us on our way. With the three of us we saw extreme poverty, fantastic buildings, the most beautiful culture and very impressive landscapes.

N.B. This trip to Asia is part of a bigger scheduled travelplan I made in early 2010. To show you all when I was where in the world in that year (and where not, as my good friend Stevin would say), here an impression of the schedule:
