Live, Work & Wander: Embracing Slow Travel in Kathmandu

πŸ–ΌοΈ Visual Introduction


Landscape
Man Walking Through Rain-Soaked Fields In the heart of the monsoon season, a man braves the heavy rain to fetch water or food, his feet sinking into the muddy farmland. Clutching a metal container and shielding himself with a blue tarp, he pushes forward through the soaked landscape. His bare feet and drenched clothes speak volumes about the daily struggles of rural laborers. This photo vividly depicts human endurance and the relentless rhythm of agricultural life in Nepal.
