I cannot believe it is already almost the middle of February. I am still thinking it is way in the beginning and I still have time. It is time to leave, however. I absolutely feel like I have no more energy left to devote to the orphanage. If there ... Read more >

This disorganization with photos and writing is terrible. The internet is so slow here and the keyboards cranky that I can't edit anything; can barely put the first drafts down. When it comes to writing, I am a perfectionist and I linger. Anyway. Moving ... Read more >

I escaped to Thamel again. I desperately needed a hot shower
after not having any the last time I came. Cheaper hotels are great, but electricity

Due to the difficulty of typing fast on these elderly keyboards and the slow internet, I haven't updated as frequently as I hoped. I can't wait until my laptop is fixed and I can type as much as I want. Not too interesting for the past two weeks ... Read more >

I haven't eaten for one full day and spend two days sleeping to cartoons on Cartoon Network and the Disney channel. I felt horrible yesterday, truly horrible; did not feel that sick for a while. I am not sure how but I started sneezing right after ... Read more >
