No one wears socks - you may say this is because it is hot, but most men wear long sleeve pants and button up shirts with sandals.
Thousands of men hang out on the street everyday in every city we have been in. Additionally, men are always our waiters and clerks in stores. A few women are around, but maybe 1 woman for every 25 men. Where are they?
All drivers honk their horns incessantly. Now I see why NYC imposes a $350 fine for honking your horn in certain areas.
Tropical climate, but a discouraging lack of exotic or unique fruits and vegetables. Hello, apples and bananas!!

A trip through Northern India and Nepal
“Traveling is a brutality. It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance. Nothing is yours except the essential things - air, sleep, dreams, the sea, the sky - all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it.” - Cesare Pavese

tropical fruit and veges probably all go to speciallity markets or are exported. you will have an abudance of organic apples when you arrive hove, worns and all. there is also go good crop of pears, so there should be lots to dry and enjoy that great cotton candy flavor. cultures that are afraid of the women, have special rules to protect them. until the husband dies and they burn the wife alive along with the husband. or the women is raped and the local justice demands the the women be stoned to death, and the rapists is allowed to live after some sort of corporal punishment. i hope you will find cooler weather and pretty scenery in nepal. love dad
