Renewing hope of Nepalis in 50 days


Volunteers hard at work to clear rubble from destroyed homes.

I am standing at the immigration counter at Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu, Nepal. Flipping through my passport, the bored-looking officer asks me how long I intend to stay in Nepal. “50 days,” I reply, with a casualness I myself don’t believe in.

“50 days? And this is your third time in Nepal?”, he looked up, looking more awake.
