AWAY TO NEPAL

The final day is drawing closer. We've been a bit preoccupied this early part of the year with the departure of our son to Nepal.  It's tomorrow that he leaves.....one more 'sleep', then we head off to Heathrow airport to say our goodbyes.

He'll be travelling to a remote village near Burtibang on the Western side of Nepal to help teach school children how to speak English.  This has all been possible with the help of Educational Volunteering Charity, Project Trust. 

All his luggage is laid out on the spare room bed waiting to be folded neatly into his rucksack. He'll return in 7 months - probably the longest 7 months I'll ever experience - with such a fantastic experience behind him.  We'll have to busy ourselves in his absence to make time pass quickly. The kitchen/utility room renovation and restoration is our next challenge.  Maybe it could be finished before he returns.
