Adventures, stories and a little bit about me…. I think I’m going to Kathmandu…. Well vacation isn’t always rosy but I am glad that the beginning of my trip to Nepal wasn’t an accurate depiction of what was to come…so without further ado, beginning with the bad and ending with the good:. Lessons learned: make sure to ask if the company does plan on flying because they will sell you a ticket irregardless; contingency plan is key; expect the unexpected; and try not to do anything regrettable.

Adventures, stories and a little bit about me…. Partners’ Forum Meeting. Our initial purpose for visiting the Sylhet area was to attend our quarterly Partners’ Forum Meeting. We flew from Dhaka via the notorious Biman Airlines which only took about 45 minutes by plane…the return trip via car wasn’t so fast, totally 4 hours of driving and 4 hours of traffic! On the bright side, the scenery is beautiful. First day with primary partners. DAM's manager 17th anniversary celebration! Group Photo of Attendees.

Taking a break from the heat😉. Why is this impressive? Because the oldest child was around 2 years! All of ...
