Going Back to Nepal For Good; What Would You Do If It Was You ?

Original Post

I've been here in the US for about 25 years. I am a United States citizen. I am tired of living here. Now I am thinking about going back home to be with family. What would you do if you were to go back to Nepal for good after such a long time? What are potential opportunities people can find in Nepal such as myself ? Please share your thoughts.

Doesn't it depend upon what skills you have? I mean every single case would be different. I am honing my skills here so that it will be useful in Nepal.

२५ बर्ष भनेको एउटा जिन्दगि नै हो, नजन्मेको मान्छे पनि अर्को मान्छे जन्माउन लायक हुञ्छ :-) सायद २० बर्ष पछि मैले पनि येही प्रश्न गरुला , तेही भएर bhaladmi Guy अङ्कल हजुरले यो २५ बर्षमा के के गर्नुभयो हामीलाई छोटकरीमा भन्नु भए हाम्रो पनि केहि बाटो बन्थ्यो कि, हजुरले पनि केहि पाउने, हामीले पनि केहि, कि कसो ?

Depends on ur age n if u have been here for ever? Yet u can open or run some industries on your relatives name. That would certainly provide you the sense of doing " something in my own country". And yes open some doors to oppuryunity to people who are forced to go to gulf countries, be it a restaurant, travel agency, or whatever it is. Main thing is stay where you can be happy!! Good luck

when you go back you start from zero like you did when you came to USA. Unless your parents are filthy rich or have already set up a business for you. Life is not easy anywhere on this earth brother.

बर्मा गए कर्म संगै भने जस्तो लाग्छ आफुलाई त| आफुले संघर्ष नगरी कतै पनि Convenience ले इन्तजार गरि राख्दैन. कुरा पैसा जम्मा छ कि छैन भन्ने मात्रै होइन. साथीभाई, परिवार आफुले पहिला छोडेर आउदाको जस्तै छन् कि छैनन् भन्ने पनि कुरा आउछ. Let alone the energy needed to deal with every aspect of government that one will run into sooner or later. Follow your heart, brother. No one can tell you that. It all depends upon your circle back there, your skills, your needed to involve whether you will sit like retired or engage actively in the society.

it's a very good decision, no matter how many years you live outside Nepal, you will never feel like home, always that temptations and difficulties, trying to fit in. I wonder why some people always talk about money, like you might have made millions. Oh common what you gonna do with money anyways coz millions won't buy you everything, most probably not your deceased loved ones. There are billionaires all over US and UK. The rat race never ends so I prefer to live like Laxmi Prasad said. i don't have to explain coz everybody knows his phrases. i am leaving too after a year and gonna marry my dream girl who will soon divorce her husband. Home is where the heart is. Last edited: 23-Jul-14 09:28 AM

You would not find anyone who cares for you in difficult times over here in US but you would find at least few in Nepal. That is the difference...As Bittertruth said, when it does not matter where you die, why dont you rather die in your own country? Just my pick..... You can make new friends in Nepal, if your old friends have moved away, and trust me it would not take you long....You are never a stranger in Nepal but in US, no matter how many years you live, you are always a stranger.... I dont want to suggest you to do this or that, but Nepal always welcomes you!!!

सिधा कुरा गर्न आउदैन यो गोर्खेलाई : बंग्याएर भन्दा सान्दर्भिक कुरा लाइ तेर्स्याएर गर्दैछु : उपत्यकाको कुनै पनि जग्गा सुन भएको छ : बडा बा : भतिज मोटर साइकल ठिक गर , लौ हेर्न जाउ त्यो माथिको जग्गामा पर्खाल कति लगाएछ ? भतिजा : मेरो जग्गा हो र हेर्न जानु ( फुर्सदि भतिजो ) बडा बा : जग्गा त मेरो नाममा पनि का छ र तेरै हजुरआमाको नाममा छ ( अन्स बण्डा गर्दा १ तिहाइ तेस्को बाउले पाउछ, भतिजालाई पनि था छ ) अर्थात मानिसहरु अनि ब्यबहार , चाल चलन का पुगी सक्यो, धेरै जसो पैसा र पावरको पछि दौडेका छन् | दाजुभाइ पनि एक ढिक्का छैनन् : जस्तो देशको हाल चाल तेसै तेस्तै हाम्रो मनस्थिति नया नेपाल संग बढ्दै छ | नया संस्कार संग कति मिलजुल गर्न सक्नु हुन्छ त्यो नै पहिलो hurdle हुनेछ | People will not care if you have earned special skill, knowledge but their main concern will be money.You must have brought 25 karod, their math will be 1 caror each year.

मेरो सल्लाह भलाद्मी मान्छेलाई चै नेपाल जानी एक वर्ष देशको ७५ जिल्ला घुम्ने अनि तपाई लै जे गर्न मनलाग्छ गर्ने| १००० अपरटूनिटी भेटाउनु हुन्छ काम गर्ने| तपाई संग पैसा त टन्नै छ होइन ब्रोदर ?

Bhaladmi Guy: Your post says "Now I am thinking about going back home to be with family." There is nothing more important than family. I really like your decision to move back to Nepal for good. I am sure you have saved some money in last 25 years. I am sure you have been going to Nepal once every now and then; so you know what to expect. Money is necessary to live there so you must have a source of income. I suggest you to put at least 1 crore in saving account of a bank. It will give you interest around 8%. So you will have income of 8 Lakh per year so that you have some cash flow. With rest of the money you can start a business or invest in some other things. You probably have to lower some expectations regarding health care, sanitation, general attitude of of people. As you have US citizenship you can travel to countries in Europe and middle east without visa. In the worst case scenario you can always come back to US. I have been living here for last 14 years and plan to go back in 4 years. Good Luck! IcanFly
