Nepal
Fun Facts:-80% of Nepalese follow Hinduism, making it the most Hinduic nation in the world
-The official language of Nepal is Nepali
-Nepal sits at the base of the Himalayas and is bordered by India and Tibet
-It is the 12th poorest country in the world
-A typical Nepalese meal consists of rice, vegetables, and dal (a leguminous crop that is high in protein)
About a week ago I decided that I want to go to Nepal. I know, it sounds crazy, but for some reason the idea entered my head and my heart, and now I can't stop thinking about it. I told my parents and they were just like, "Oh really, that's great Kels." I don't think they quite understand my newfound passion for this country. While I understand that this idea may seem a little grandiose, that does not stop me. The title of my blog is "Daring to Dream" and that is exactly what I am doing. I am daring to pursue something that others may question, and yet that opposition does not hinder me. Whether or not I end up accomplishing this goal next year or sometime down the road, I will continue to dream because that is who I am...

Kels, I think that it is so cool that you want to go to Nepal! Actually, I just think that its awesome that you have a passion for travel. And I definitely agree with your philosophy- whether or not you end up going to every place you dream of or not, it is still fun to dream!
P.S. I was sad that I missed your phone call the other day. We'll have to catch up soon! I love you!
Hey there, you have not mentioned Nepal to me! What parent reaction are you talking about? Mot mine! I have great respect for all of your dreams--I probably have even more for you--and Nepal is fascinating. Are you SURE you don't want to pursue journalism or international relations? You go girl.
Love ALWAYS, Mom
