Sarita, Raj-Kumar and Teelok

Sarita, Raj-Kumar and Teelok
Kathmandu, Saturday, October 3rd, 2015

Walking back from Manamaiju, I spotted these three playing a game where they would stand atop the small brick wall, jump up and then kick a small rubber toy (imagine 30 small rubber-bands tied together, this is the toy). I believe they were trying for both distance and style points.

Four friends

September 30, 2015 by Teacher Jack in Kathmandu Nepal

Four friends
Phutung, Kathmandu, Saturday, September 26th, 2015

A stone’s throw from Phutung’s Nag Pokhari, four friends—Dipesh, Bimochan, Saroj, and Rohan—are taking turns playing table tennis on a large concrete table. A line of bricks (of which there are plenty about) serves as their net.

As I arrive, Bimochan has hit the ball over the fence and is climbing back from getting it. He pokes his leg on the top of the fence, so decides to get back by instead climbing on the low concrete roof of a neighboring building.

“Do you want to play table tennis?” –Dipesh
