Five years ago, in Nepali gathering, you could see several students who would say
  "I would have gone to Nepal, but this darn Maoist insurgency.. you don't know what happens to your life when you go there"
Today, we are complaining that "we won't have car and house rightaway in KTM".

So basically, this is a progress.

I know most of those in the states don't go back. Few do, and most of those who go back seem to succeed.

I personally think life is bitch everywhere. It is upto you to make it better. Nepal is bad today doesn't mean it will remain so forever. US is good today also doesn't mean it will remain like that forever. If you are brilliant, I am sure you will enjoy your life wherever you are. In fact, you will find a way to enjoy your life wherever you are.
