Sometimes I am still amazed that places like this actually exist. Our World is so beautiful if you know where to look. To me, this shot has always seemed more like something out of a dream than reality.

I hope it’s OK.

I’ve got some bad news for you (and for all of us). The village of Phortse was destroyed by the earthquake.

I know a lot of people who follow this blog have been to Nepal and have been mesmerized by Nepal’s beauty and the kindness of the people they met on their travels. Now is the time to extend a helping hand to the land and the people who have impacted your life. If you are able to donate or help out in any way, please do so. Thank you.

Horror And Hope After A Massive Earthquake, Through The Eyes Of A 17-Year-Old

Another powerful earthquake rattled Nepal on Monday, leaving dozens dead and thousands injured. The latest upheaval followed one of the worst earthquakes in the country’s history — a 7.8-magnitude quake that killed more than 8,000 and left many more homeless.

Lawsuit?

Yes. If people are coming around claiming to be professionals spreading false info, the first step would be to go file a complaint against them at the Ward office. Then if their advice directly (and maybe sometimes indirectly..depends on the situation and how much evidence you have) causes life or major property damage then you can file a lawsuit. I know this isn’t really a common practice in Nepal and regular people just don’t go around suing people, but it is an option. 

You can also let the police know and they will arrest these scammers. After the first quake some idiot went around spreading false rumors of another 9 or 10 Richter scale earthquake was predicted and people started panicking. The Nepali police arrested these people and sent out a message saying they should only trust professionals and not some random dude off the streets.
