Why I Go
It's funny that months and months before I left to come to Nepal, long before I bought my ticket even, I had a very strong sense of purpose in coming out here.
I thought I would really be making a positive and much
needed change in my life. But in the proceeding months of physical and emotional preparation - working out what to take and what to leave behind, getting ready to say good-bye to loved ones, etc., I some how lost the desire that initially seemed very strong. So much so that when my eventual date of departure arrived I couldn't really work out what it was I had wanted to leave behind and go in search of. But my bags were packed and before I knew it it was time to wipe back the tears and get on a plane headed for the other side of the world. I left with a mind full of confusion and an unsettled sense of purpose. Thankfully that would eventually change.
