I'm going to be in Nepal for two and a half months so I thought I would set this up for people who wanted to keep track of what I was up too. Hopefully I will be able to update it now and then.

Heading Home

Casey and I will be leaving Nepal for our long journey back home on January 11th. We'll be spending the next couple of days doing some gift shopping and sharing meals with friends both Nepali and tourist. We have a twelve hour layover (overnight) trapped in the departures area of the Dehli (India) airport which thankfully won't be as bad as the FIFTEEN hour layover we had on the way here from the US. I met a Brit a couple of days ago who is on the same flight with us to India from Kathmandu and he also has a long overnight layover. With three of us hanging out the time should go by faster than when Casey and I each did the fifteen hour wait by ourselves.
After that it's just a couple of quick (heh) flights first to England and then to NYC before we are no longer tourists and are just poor americans again planning for our next adventures....

Greeting for the day!!

I am new to this site. Loads of individuals have contributed so many good things here. I would also like to add some thing for this community. I would like to share some [url=http://www.weightrapidloss.com/lose-10-pounds-in-2-weeks-quick-weight-loss-tips]quick weight loss tips[/url]. If you want to know how to lose 10 lb in a calendar week, you are likely not searching for a general dieting and work out plan. You can lose weight with a common diet and workout plan, However this demands a lot of time doing intense cardio exercises and binding to a strict diet. Here I will outline the right steps that I took to lose 10 pounds in just a week.

1. Stay away from all deep-fried foods for the week
2. Drink an 8oz glass of grapefruit with breakfast every day. (this speeds up up your metabolism)
3. Take reasonable portions (stop consuming when you are full)
4. Instead of eating 3 large a meals a day, consume 5-6 small meals to keep your metabolism up and keep your body burning fat.
5. Aviod your habbit of eating after 9 P.M.. Its good to eat before 9 P.M. so that our body gets proper time to burn calories before sleep.
6. Take proper sleep every night. Not taking plenty sleep has been proven to be a major factor to the body storing excess fat.
7. Use a body/colon clean for the 7 days. This will get rid of unnecessary weight stored around the tummy area as well as cleanse your body of harmfull pollutants that makes you store fat and feel tired. Flush away excess pounds around the stomach area that otherwise would be hard to lose.
8. I advice you using Acai Berry Diet Pills. This one is tested to work, and you can get a free trial.
9. For those individuals who wish to burn fat quickly, avoid alcoholic beverage.

The French gourmet cheese Bleu d'Auvergne has a wonderful aroma, a rich taste; the saltiness increases with the incidence of veining. The overall flavor is piquant but not overly sharp. Bleu d'Auvergne started life as an imitation of Roquefort, using cow's milk in place of sheep's milk. Legend has it that a peasant, around 1845, decided to inject his cheese with a blue mold that he found growing on his left-over bread (the motto being, waste not, want not). And thus, the gourmet cheese Bleu d'Auvergne was born. This French gourmet blue cheese comes from the region of Auvergne and the cheese is made from milk of Salers and Aubrac cows. The rind is very thin and so the cheese is usually wrapped in foil. The cheese is rich and creamy with a pale yellow color and scattered holes and well-defined greenish-blue veining. We cut and wrap this cheese in wedge of 8 ounces and 1 pound.
