DO NOT RETURN TO NEPAL.

 I have been thinking of going back to Nepal in the near future and have always thought that points sammi had brought here would be something easy to deal with and would just take some time to get used to. However, this post made me give a second thought to it.

I think opinions from ones who are in foreign lands (thinking of going back) would be a little biased (like mine). I myself thought that it would be easy to get back to life in Nepal until my visit last winter. I then realized that my opinions were all based on the Nepal I left 10 years ago, without considering the rapid changes going on in the recent years. During my last couple of visits to Nepal,  I have realized things have changed so much that it wouldn't be as easy as I initially thought. My opnions have already changed within a short 1 month visit last year, but not so much to completly ditch the idea of going back. I know living there permanently would be a completely different scenario than my 1 month visits and I am sure it will be even more challenging. Yet, I am still considering this option and I would like to hear experiences  from ones who are already back in Nepal. If there are any folks in sajha please share your thoughts and experiences on this issue. Would love to hear your first hand experiences than ones who are outside (ones I believe would have some level of emotional bias).
