Why most of Nepalese people say  I don't go to these to mingle with nepalis.  too much "koora" and gossip they also say "Nepali haru khali aaruko kura kaatchaan, khutta taanchaan bla.bla bla. Everybody says it, but I haven't seen anybody admitting that, I am the one who pull legs and spread gossip.

When I was in Nepal there was a woman, she didn't have job, she would go to one neighbor to another and talk all day with people. I knew nobody liked her, people would say she is the 'aaruko kura katne aaimai'.

One day she came to our home and started talking to my mom, and I heard her saying to my mom that "I don't like some people here in this tole, tini haru ko kaan nai aaruko khutta tanne. That made me laugh.

Long story short, I think we have new culture built up to tell " Malai dheri Nepali haru vayeko maan pardaina, tini haru ko kaam nai khutta tanne ra kura katne huncha."

Dear o@$!$...., Go to the convention, it's fun, I had  been to Dallas convention and New York one, you will see lot of Nepalese people around the USA even some from Europe, I met a friend after 10  yrs. You won't regret.............. have fun.
