Arju and Puja

October 30, 2015 by Teacher Jack in Kathmandu Nepal

Arju and Puja
Manamaiju Marg, Manamaiju, Kathmandu, October 18th, 2015

I was walking down Manamaiju Marg, watching children play on the ping [swing] to my right, when I saw Arju giving her sister Puja a ride on their bike.

A week later, when I found their house to give them their photos, their mother said one word: "Beautiful".

Umesh

Umesh
Kathmandu, 2002

This photo of Umesh (who told me he also goes by the name Rupock) was taken within 15 meters of this previously posted photo. And with the previous photo, it took some time to find Umesh again—the downside of taking photos at a crossroad.
