Kathmandu, Nepal-More From Gai Jatra 2018 Festival this past Monday. Some of my best moments spent in Nepal besides trekking in the Himalaya have been observing the various festivals whether they’re Hindi, Buddhist, or Newari. The indescribable aura especially with the mix of beliefs and people that come from all over the country to work in the Kathmandu Valley is magical, unlike almost anywhere else I’ve visited. Sometimes I wonder did I find this place or did it find me. On my 8th visit in as many years... #kathmandu #hindu #hinduism #nepal #festival #podcast #photojournalism #trekking #backpacking #away #tripme #traveling #alone #photooftheday #new#happiness#travelingram #instago #instatravel#traveltheworld #instago #beautifulplace#travelpics#travellife #wildernessculture#instafollow#travellife #igtravel #travelphotography #WeAreSherpa August 30, 2018 at 10:59AM

Kathmandu, Nepal-Gai Jatra 2018, “The Festival Of Cows”! These boys are dressed as cows leading processions of people who have lost a loved one this past year. Cows lead the processions but if one is not available a boy dressed as a cow is an acceptable substitute. They accept offerings from people in the street. Young children are dressed in bright colorful costumes and adults sometimes dress in funny outfits. It’s all to help those see they are not alone in their suffering and to help relieve the pain of loss. I felt so much joy and community today in Kathmandu. Once again the spirit of harmony and compassion unfolded itself in a beautiful ritual in the Kathmandu Valley. #kathmandu #hindu #hinduism #nepal #festival #podcast #photojournalism #trekking #backpacking #away #tripme #traveling #alone #photooftheday #new#happiness#travelingram #instago #instatravel#traveltheworld #instago #beautifulplace#travelpics#travellife #wildernessculture#instafollow#travellife #igtravel #travelphotography August 27, 2018 at 06:13PM

Varanasi, India-The look in their eyes. Sometimes I turn the camera the other way just to capture moments like this. A group in this boat staring up at the ghats of the great Ganges each with their own perspective, different reasons perhaps of why they are there. Do they have a relative who’s body was cremated or are they waiting for someone to finally pass on to the next life? Are they simply just tourists admiring the ghats and city for the first time. Or could they be reminding us to always feel gratitude no matter what’s currently happening in our lives. Varanasi goes at many speeds with layers of activity that can sometimes only be felt days, even years after the fact.... #varanasi #nikon #puja #incredibleindia #hinduism #streetphotography#photojournalism #away #tripme #traveling #alone #nikon #flowers #photooftheday #new#happiness#travelingram#instatravel#traveltheworld #instago #beautifulplace#travelpics#travellife #wildernessculture#instafollow#travellife #FF #igtravel #followme August 24, 2018 at 11:32PM

Mt. Kailash,Tibet-The highest point on the kora of Mt. Kailash, Drolma La Pass, 5630 meters. This is one of the most unique adventures on the planet. Travel to remote Western Tibet, Walk for 3 days on a pilgrimage around one of the holiest places of Buddhist, Hindu, Jain, and Bon followers. They say doing one kora around Mt. Kailash wipes away the sins of a lifetime. Some believe after you do a kora, circumambulation of Mt. Kailash, you will go on to do something good for humanity. It’s an incredible awakening and it helped change my life! #tibet #buddha #buddhism #hinduism #photojournalism #trekking #india #backpacking #away #tripme #traveling #alone #photooftheday #travelblogger #new#happiness#travelingram #instago #instatravel#traveltheworld #instago #beautifulplace#travelpics#travellife #wildernessculture#instafollow#travellife #igtravel #travelphotography #mountainscape August 21, 2018 at 10:24PM

Hanoi, Vietnam-I think we’ve lost so much in the way of individuality and charm when it comes to retailing, let alone how it’s impacted our cultures and society. So many governments encourage big business and multinational chains with tax breaks and incentives while making it increasingly harder for an individual to start a small business- shameful! The Old Quarter Of Hanoi is still filled with family businesses that offer products, services, and style that’s quite unique for a capital city these days. From a traveler’s perspective it’s so refreshing to walk around a city and not see the same stores that are showing up everywhere else on the planet. I want more LOCAL at home and when I travel! #vietnam #hanoi #fuji #myfujifilm #fujifilm #streetphotography#photojournalism #away #tripme #traveling #alone #photooftheday #walkingstreet #nightmarket #new#happiness#travelingram #instago #instatravel#traveltheworld #instago #beautifulplace#travelpics#travellife #wildernessculture#instafollow#travellife #FF #igtravel #followme #travelphotography August 20, 2018 at 10:32AM

Mustang, Nepal-Completely different from Nepal’s busiest trekking regions. This is the birthplace of Tibetan Buddhism, the high desert, barren but beautiful. Only open to outsiders since 1992 the Upper Mustang Restricted Region requires the most expensive trekking permit at $500USD for 10 days, $50 everyday after. Would love to put a small group together and go back. So many subtle yet mind blowing things. #mustang #nepal #himalayas #tibetan #tibetan #podcast #photojournalism #trekking #backpacking #away #tripme #traveling #alone #photooftheday #buddhism #new#happiness#travelingram #instago #instatravel#traveltheworld #instago #beautifulplace#travelpics#travellife #wildernessculture#instafollow#travellife #igtravel #travelphotography #mountainscape August 18, 2018 at 09:32PM

Varanasi, India-Puja on the great Ganges River. Prayers or pujas are frequent in one of India’s holiest cities. Cremations at the burning ghats run 24/7. Honestly it’s an exhausting city to visit but you won’t know what hit you until a few days after you’ve left. Then you’ll crave more-seriously! Great food to be had in Varanasi but think twice before trying the street food-people do get sick from it there. It’s India so negotiate hard especially for boat rides and taxis-auto rickshaws. Don’t be surprised if you’re walking down the street and run into a body being carried to the burning ghats. I’d do this city again anytime! It’s crazy and like nothing you’ve ever seen! #varanasi #nikon #puja #incredibleindia #hinduism #streetphotography#photojournalism #away #tripme #traveling #alone #nikon #flowers #photooftheday #new#happiness#travelingram#instatravel#traveltheworld #instago #beautifulplace#travelpics#travellife #wildernessculture#instafollow#travellife #FF #igtravel #followme #food August 17, 2018 at 10:34PM

Ubud, Bali-This photo and the other images in this series were captured at the temple next to the market. Actually you’ll find temples and shrines scattered everywhere on the island including inside businesses where staff can keep up with their daily prayers. At one restaurant I was having a conversation with a lovely charming server who after excusing herself walked over to the little shrine in the courtyard for an evening prayer. This scene feels like a beautiful dance with each follower presenting offerings while motioning several hand gestures. Bali is beautiful! #bali #ubud #hinduism #hindu #tropical #spiritualawakening #nikonusa #king #tombraider #away #tripme #traveling #alone #hindu #photooftheday #new #happiness #travelingram #instago #instatravel #travelworld #instago #beautifulplace #travelpics #travellife #instafollow #travellife #FF #igtravel #followme #travelphotography August 15, 2018 at 11:36PM
