Nepal – Boudhanath

Also, I don’t think I’ll ever regret spending on travel. Truth is, I didn’t know what to expect when we get there, but my sister said we’ll be seeing Mt. Everest and the Himalayas, and that was enough for me. I knew it was going to be one of the most interesting trips I’ll ever have.
