Last year was the year of understanding for me. In December 2013, I
went to Nepal for a 7 day trip with my back back and a sketchbook. its
been a while and was going through the sketch book the other day and
thought it would be lovely to share it with you all. it was more of a
pilgrimage experience for me as I myself traveled for the first time
all alone.
