      • Hi,

        Hope you are fine.
        I'm a Nepalese living in Mauritius. I have my family in Kathmandu. I'm most of the times concerned about the situation there. It's beauty is fading away. How is the current situation?

        You know, the whole earth itself is suffering. I'm concerned about the whole world now. It's not just in Nepal that the situation is difficult, but in many parts of the world.

        Anyways, we have to live on with a hope for the bright days to return.

        Take care!
