How to carry your chicken!
Village girl with Chicken, Nepal.
When trekking in Nepal, there are moments of pure magic. I was walking through the village of Simikot in the far west of the country when a youngster walked in front of me carrying a rooster on her back. I had my camera at the ready and took this shot.
Nepal is like that.... a sudden jolt of difference, that is both charming and awakening.
Stephen Bezrushka expressed some sense of this very well......
Nepal is there to change you, not for you to change it. Lose yourself in it's essence. Make your footprints with care and awareness of the precarious balance around you. Take souvenirs in you mind and spirit, not in your pockets. Nepal is not only a place on the map, but an experience, a way of life from which we all can learn.
