Parvati
Manamaiju, Kathmandu, October 2015

I first met Parvati, along with her sisters Indramaya, Susmita and Ashmita, back in 2002. They were returning from farming and we were both taking the same trail up the side of a green hill to Manamaiju. I think they may have invited me for tea then, or perhaps it was later, when I brought them a photo of our first meeting. Like all in her family, Parvati has a wonderful smile, an easy laugh, and a heart of gold.
