Nepal

Recently Nilla and I were in Peru where we meet up with a beautiful lady called Camilla.

During one of  our conversations Camilla shared her Nepal Holiday experience.

Camilla was very fortunate to take some extraordinary photo’s of  Eagles.

She claimed the photos was good enough for National Geographic, now you can be the judge.

I asked if she would mind sharing a couple with you…along with how she was feeling  at the time.

Camilla has generously shared her travel experience from Nepal with us.



Namaste

At an early age I started searching for important answers in my life.

The older I got, the more impatient I got by finding more questions than answers.

Even when hitting some dead end tracks I was able to learn and boost my self-confidence and gain greater trust in my abilities.

A few times I had looked for places to learn meditation, read books, and followed it’s  “Easy step by step” CDs, only to find a noisy mind and loose the feeling of my legs.

My spiritual journey took me to Nepal.

It was a masterfully planned trip to connect, elevate and energize us in order to better function on heights up to 5500 m.

Perhaps you can relate as I am constantly finding more people like myself  or more I find myself more like others.

I was totally unprepared for Kathmandu city.

I would describe this city as having brought Mumbai up in the mountains.

The dirt, the cold, the barely clothed children made me sad and homesick.

I saw a lot of desperation OM was sold and not a part of peoples lives.

Nagarkot Resort (about 4500 above sea level) provided peace and serenity.

I relaxed and felt at home instantly.

This was the Nepal I had come to see! In every room at the resort there was panoramic windows, which allowed you to follow the light moving over the chain of mountaintops.

Even though I was visiting during wintertime and it was freezing cold I could not justify eating any of my meals indoors.

My Olympus and I sat on the balcony spying for a good shot.

Every minute the landscape looked different pending on where the landscape got lit up by the sun or shaded by the clouds.

It was so beautiful.

There was a group of three to four eagles that were gliding fairly close, while 30 something was further away hunting around the forest grounds.

I was following them with my lens just admiring their beauty, I felt so connected to them and in sync with mother earth and the ecology of life.

I was counting my blessings in meditation, learning to open up to all multi faceted events of life.

Such a powerful moment for me!

In such a grand environment it’s impossible not to get touch and connected to the majesty of nature and what mother earth is providing for us all.

I love to observe life and feel blessed whenever I am able to see the beauty of ongoing life.
