Housing location & lifestyle question by AlisonDK
Hi All My husband and I went to Nepal about 7 years ago for a 3 week stay and absolutely loved it. We are considering a move to Nepal for a few years as where we live in Australia (Sydney) is now so expensive we're working our lives away 50-60 ...
huhm, sounds to me like Nepal not exactly the cheap country to live in it used to be. Read More
How can the Kathmandu air pollution issue be solved? by MadagascarNow
OK, let's first assume the government will either get out of the way or cooperate. It's easy to bash governments and criticize politicians. I just get bored with that dialog and, as expats, I think it's important to remember we are here ...
The HT just reported that despite government restrictions to try and curb air pollution levels by brick kilns still very much present in Kathmandu Valley's Changunarayan and Bhaktapur areas, those same kilns there regrettably continue to emit, ... Read More

Let's hope and pray that the proposed construction of those two airports goes faster than the long awaited Melamchi Water Project. That project dates from 2001, and 17 years later, the Kathmanduites are still waiting. Project's completion ... Read More
Best place in Nepal for culture and conversation? by AllieTea
Which is the best place for culture, conversation, price, and more? I am a freelancer, but would like to do much more in terms of volunteering, too, and expanding into more online business platforms. Would you say there are entrepreneur types there ...
Where and with whom to have informative cultural exchanges in Nepal? Any place like that to converse, engage, educate or inspire? Any adult education classes to join in or outside the capital? Cost? Have to be held in English too, obviously, because ... Read More

MadagascarNow mentions the building of two more international airports. If and when that should happen, it's a scientific fact that it will only mean more air pollution emissions from planes - not less. Read More

Starting business in Nepal by adrianrossduncan
The advice on import-export re. setting up business in Nepal will not help if you wish to actually start a business and reside in Nepal. Which is what I plan to do, no matter how difficult it seems. Anybody got any other advice, particularly ...
The more I learn about Nepal, the less I'd ever be inclined to invest my money in Nepal to start any business there. The fact they've had poor government there for so long, endemic corruption too, have not helped matters. Not far from failed ... Read More

The earthquake by Gordon Barlow
Very sad to read about the earthquake. So many people will be affected, directly or indirectly. My son and his girlfriend were just there on a holiday, paragliding. They left just a week before the quake. I wish everybody the best, over there.
Three years later, Nepal should be rebuilding, not failing to rebuild. And yet if one is to believe press report just out, we are told billions "to rebuild Nepal are being misdirected". They write that to date, only 15% of some 708,000 ... Read More

And now, Monica, there is this one bit of news which might interest those who may still be thinking of moving to Nepal. It's in the form of a public statement by none other than CPN Chairman Pushpa K. Dahal who did not mince his words when he ... Read More

Terrible tragedy of yet another plane crash at Nepal's only International Airport (TIA), in or near the capital, with such heavy and regrettable loss of life, 51 by latest count. Condolences to all next of kin. Here's wishing the survivors ... Read More
Buying property in Nepal by Christine
Hi, can a foreigner buy property in Nepal? If so, is it complicated? What is the process of purchasing a property in Nepal? Any tips for buying property, such as a check-list of items to verify ? Thanks in advance for ...
Sounds to me that the sooner nepalis come to their senses and stop charging non-nepalis, tourists and other foreigners 10x, the better. Haven't they heard that cows in Nepal can also be milked dry? Now think I'll pass Nepal altogether and go ... Read More

Appreciate your comments. I've read about airports you have in Nepal like Lukla, which has the reputation of being the most dangerous airport in the world. So no, has to be the obvious answer to your question. On the contrary, nepal airlines ... Read More
