Faces and Places - N E P A L series

in #photography7 years ago (edited)

This is the ninth post in a series of photos entitled Faces and Places. I am using the tag #facesandplaces in all the posts in this series, and invite you to use this same tag to share your portraits and experiences of various cultures around the world.

These photos were taken during my 2-month trip to Nepal, in May and June of last year, some in the children's home and school where I worked to continue developing a Montessori program, some simply in the streets of Kathmandu where there is an abundance of life and compelling moments to capture. I hope you enjoy these portraits:

One of my favourite things in life is getting lost in a foreign land. Learning to overcome all apprehensions of the unknown, discovering, taming, finding a way, adapting, slowly connecting the dots to create a bigger picture and finding comfort within my new "home".
Nepal is one of those lands - my travels there have been filled with unpredictable beauty, warmth, compassion and connection.

Your face carries all your memories. It is the testimony of a life well spent.

If wrinkles must be written upon our brows, let them not be written upon the heart. The spirit should never grow old. - James A. Garfield
