Countdown

I'm in Cleveland, Ohio right now... Strange city.

My mailing address in Nepal will be:

Ben Schweizer
Ama Foundation
P.O. Box 8975 EPC 2089
Kathmandu, Nepal

The website for where I'll be is:

I'm not sure what to expect at all, so this is what Lonely Planet has to say about Kathmandu:

Kathmandu is really two cities: a fabled capital of convivial pilgrims and carved rose-brick temples, and a frenetic sprawl of modern towers, mobbed by beggars and monkeys and smothered in diesel fumes. It simultaneously reeks of history and the encroaching wear and tear of the modern world.

More updates from California and hopefully from Nepal.
