Depends on after how long you are going home? The dust really bothers me when I go home... no no American bhai khako hoina kya .. tara malai Nepal ma phor maile ko gandha pani ramro lagyo.. kinaki I was missing it. hahahaha but dust.... ufffff.. and thus I get sick the first week I'm in Nepal everytime. Otherwise... no place is better than home...... I normally reach home on Friday late night and go to Pashupati Temple the next morning. New Road has changed. The shops near the Photo Concern is all gone.. :( My favorite Chappan Bhog has moved god knows where.. Lots of new shops.. Old tarkari bazaar in Khicha Pokhari is like a small mall from where I buy DVDs in cheap price to bring to US... and there is new China Market near Khicha Pokhari.. Khicha Pokhari is full of shops these days.. Have an extra plate of Bakery ko momo, Airport ko Sekuwa and New Dish ko chicken chilly for me.. ..:) ooops dunno if you eat non-veg.. and watch a Nepali movie in theater :) hmm last movie I watched in theater was I think Kusume Rumal I enjoyed Thamel more after coming to US. First thing I look for to bring back to US is books on Nepal with lots of pictures. When I had my last trip home, my two suitcase had nothing but nepali sirak and dasna.. and I'm enjoying them in my cozy apartment in USA. and above all.. "BE SAFE" ~Sundari
