Today Muni and I went to the airport to pick up my dad. It was such a surreal feeling to pick up my dad in a foreign country I’ve been living in for a month already. I welcomed him with Nepal ma swagaat chaa, which means “welcome to Nepal”. The taxi drivers trying to hawk a fare laughed at this, and I told them that he didn’t need a ride…he was with me (dialog fit for any B-grade buddy cop movie). He arrived with a nice care package consisting of three monitors, two books on computer programming and a book on relativity (which I ‘accidentally’ left in the Amazon cart. I could have sworn it was the Amazon wish list, but I digress).
On the way home we passed a famous crematorium.
That’s all for now.
