Hello from Kathmandu, Nepal. We will have a more full update soon, but we wanted to share some photos of Eliza’s visit to the Boudha Stupa during the recent full moon. When you are in a lunar calendar culture, the state of the moon has much more meaning than whether or not one should be a afraid of werewolves. A full moon is time for ritual and prayers, or pujas as they are none.
Eliza had a rare late night with her Uncle David and Aunt Miyoko at the largest stupa (a tall tower-like Buddhist monument) in the world perhaps. It is quote a powerful place, surrounded by mostly Tibetan shops and restaurants.
We walked around clockwise many times, observing the prayers, watching the candles being lit, and just enjoying being completely enveloped in real Tibetan-Nepali culture.
More soon from Kathmandu!
