"Traveling. The joy of a lifetime. A teenage dream that had become a profession. It was a way of life that was always the same, yet always different: the preparations for departure, the going, the writing about it. But what the sense of it all was I, honestly, had never stopped to ask myself." -Tiziano Terzani, from One More Ride on the Merry-Go-Round

Epic day-tour of Mumbai! (Many cool stops & scenes)
Originally from Kathmandu, now a foreigner somewhere else, am always intrigued to see an outsiders perspective of my place. I find yours borderline. Yes, the city is interesting and yes, the old back bend eventually but it is most certainly not from drinking water and that posture, the one depicted on the dhara is a proper one, used by women all over the world. If you gaze properly, the back is flat, the butt high, just how it should be. I am a woman from there and I find the ladies there beautiful and friendly and I doubt anyone is particularly trying to pick you up, not in a bad way. They are just hospitable folks and friendly. They like their billion gods and yes, there is a day they do puja for their rides too. Not a bad thing eh?
Haha, yes, I would agree that our perspective is 'borderline'!😄Kathmandu is an amazing, lively city and the people are certainly very hospitable and friendly. I personally feel drawn back there again and again because of the unique atmosphere. Keep in mind that most of this is supposed to be 'comedy'. Thanks for your thoughts!
@@wanderlostChris Thank you for your response. Appreciate being able to laugh at things. Enjoy your travels and keep laughing. Thank you
Wow 😂
😄
You got awesome guide. I told to tourists hire good guide. It worth to hire you travel from long distance if you don’t learn anything from us not worth.
Yes, it was a much different experience with a guide ... I learned so much.
Don’t believe him what ever he said. It wired.
😁
It is to scary to look at , it might give pple nightmares, you warned viewers ahead . I might seek help now
Ah really? Apologies, I didn't think it was super scary, but if you're sensitive maybe it could be. Perhaps I should have put a warning in ...

OK. Thanks for your comment and the link to what I think is the Nechung Oracle.
Spirits are really captured in cameras .I have once captured in selfie video.Spirit wearing black hoodie came and immediately turned around.
@AmitPandey-v2s Wow, strange. Thanks for sharing
Usa bale bhi pagal hote hai 😂
Nothing mysterious about photo ! It is just a reflection of glass behind or len' flare. Highly accomplished teachers will never end up in a spirit world-. In Buddhist terms all spirit such as ghost are called hungry ghost . People are reborn in hungry ghost because of negative karma such stinginess! Some are powerful such as shuden or dorjee shuden. Which belong to then class of spirit, In total hungry ghost can be divided into two group , spirit who depend on smell as food and those lives in group. Some scholar classified spirit into Tsen, Gyalpo, Rolam, Mamo and Thepran. And those live in group called hungry ghost. Accomplished teachers will be reborn as human or God depend on his of her aspirations. Definitely will not end up in negative rebirth such as animal , hungry ghost or hellbeing.
It’s been more than year not months and it’s a sensitive topic. Please do not use use content to get views . Humbly asking
OK, I'm sorry if I've offended you or anyone else with this video. I can understand that it's a sensitive topic and I think I indulged in too much speculation. Actually I didn't make the video just to get views ... I thought it was a genuinely strange and unusual photograph that I wanted to share. By the way, the video was made in August 2023.
Yes Sth with Lens, reflection?
Could be.
It not spirit. It your luck camera's spirit😂😂😂
😄
Hahaha that is reflection and lenses flare
sorry but looks like a lens flare
It is
OK, thanks for the comment
Hashtag Balen shah sure it will great
Do you think he'd like this video?
@@wanderlostChris they are blind followers (andha bhakt) of certain politicians. Recently political polarization in Nepal is increasing higly.
Why some ching chong music??? You know you're in Nepal?

Glad you liked it! 😆

Wow super nice guru Rinpoche kheno
I used to be a monk in Kopan Monastery.
Wow, that's amazing. It seems like a good monastery. Actually, my next post will also be related to Kopan
Amazing vlog. Keep it up ❤
Thank you
Amazing Nepal
Good pizzas are not unusual for India! India is a huge country with some of the best restaurants in the world so please think before you make comments like that about a country you obviously know very little about
OK. Thanks for the comment
Nepal looks pretty cool.
Yeah, it is. I'd recommend it!
The cobbler was telling the apple seller to ask for more money, he will give !! Haha talking about warm hospitality. But it’s okay, there are lot of good Indians here.
Haha, wow, I didn't know that. Thanks for the comment!
@ I enjoy watching your videos !
@@hilldiaries2793 Thank you so much 🙏
Well this is one tour I can skip!
😆
Hey thats me ... Thanks for putting me in ..... you make them so well. .. the editing and the sound are spot on. It's so weird, I don't recognize myself from the outside! It's a shame we didn't do more!
Hey Ajan Provocateur, Glad you got a chance to see your video! Thanks. Haha, yeah it must be weird to see yourself on the screen like that. You're right - it was fun to make them!
BTW, I got your messages on WhatsApp from your old phone ... will reply to you there.
Hey, if you want to add me on Telegram you can find me @cjhj17

You would make a great tour writer or guide. WOW!

Those caves look cool, where are they in relation to Leh?
I think they're not too far out ... like 1.5 hours or something.
Juley😂
At Triund top no one cares if you can't sleep, that's your problem, it's not a resort anyway.
Technically its not a bus. The only bus from Manali to Leh is a government bus which is much loved. Vehicle ur taking is called TT or tempo traveller.
OK, I see. But can it be called a "minibus"?
@@wanderlostChris You can call it a bus as well..no harm..my comment was more for Indians and how we address it. Here is the video of the government bus. First 15 days of when the route opens in May....its a dream journey..in local langauge but you can understand from the visuals ruclips.net/video/4cmU62U15P8/видео.html See how much snow we have at Baralacha la
@@arnprasad Wow cool. Yeah, lots of snow there! Looks a lot different than when I was traveling.
I was so awaited to this vlog.
Cool. Thanks!
Wow! That is one crazy trip. Glad u made it unscathed.
Thank you so much chris for ur kind n a volunteer works towards our refugees community ,i on behalf of our people's once again thank you n keep it up🙏😊
Thank you so much! 🙏🏻 It was a positive experience for me and I'm glad I did it.
Wow nice video
Thank you!
So great nice video to get the expression of other thoughts
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks
3rd one make sense,we would never realise value of freedom
Yes, I also feel that it's is so true.
@@wanderlostChris tibetans can offer you lot about science of mind and inner peace,try to learn about mindfulness and about Buddhism during your stay ,may be u can attend geshe lhakdor class at gangkyi,he speaks really well on mindfulness
I heard from an American friend who is not alive anymore has this to say about India, I quote, “India brings out the best in you and also the worst in you, “ unquote. I am from Dharamsala but for the last 13 years living in South Burlington, Vermont.
Haha, yes that sounds about right! Wow, Dharamsala and Vermont -- 2 very different places! I'm from Philadelphia.
Thanks for your kindness and sharing your experience.my monk brother also learn English from that place.very helpful all volunteers are highly appreciate 🙏🏻👍🏻💐😍

Hi Kathy, Yes that is a great NGO and Sonam is such a nice guy. Thanks for watching!
