I hosted the 16 fulbrighters this evening for a small gathering. Amazing group of people!

Today I joined Rising Rays 8th, 9th and 10th graders for their picnic

Great class with an amazing group of students!

At the end of my graduate class today I apologized for keeping them until the last minute. The students don’t rush out here. They stay, waiting to see if you might share just one more piece of information with them. They responded by asking if we could hold extra hours of class, as much as I can teach. These students ride motorcycles in freezing weather to dimly lit room with no heat before dawn and sit in multiple layers shivering in order to get an education. And then they ask for more… I am beyond honored and blessed to have the opportunity to teach them.

Who knew tea could be so good! Fresh Ginger, lemon, honey tea is the bomb! The walk to Asan for lemons was worth it!

Presented on Crisis recovery recommendations at the Nepali Red Cross Program with my dear friend and colleague Chetana!

Left my place before dawn I’m freezing rain to observe a wonderful multicultural graduate class, no heat. The afternoon was filled with presenting at the Fulbright Commission. Ended the day with a walk through the cold mud and rain in Thamel. I’m freezing! No leaving my room tonight, peanut butter and crackers with hot tea for dinner! Staying snuggled up!
