Aditi: I am so excited about the Nepal trip!

Zara: And I am thrilled that you are also coming along. It will be fun!

Aditi: I think we should plan a little. I want to make sure that we make the most of our time there.

Zara: Yes, I agree. Three days is a short time, but considering that we are going there for a conference, we are lucky to get three full days to explore KATHMANDU. We will make each minute count.

Aditi: I know I want to visit the UNESCO world heritage sites there. I read somewhere that there are seven buildings that have made it to the list.

Zara: I am not too sure that I want to visit all seven buildings. A few should be enough, like some temples and the Boudanath Stupa. I have never seen a stupa before.

Aditi: Me neither. It looks so majestic in the pictures...

Zara: Don’t worry, we will soon have our own PHOTOS there! I BADLY want to try the local dishes there.

Aditi: Yes. The actual flavour of a place is in its STREET food. Are you a restaurant person or a street food person?

Zara: Street food!

Aditi: I am glad we both think the same way, at least in terms of food.  

Zara: What about shopping?

Aditi:I am not much into shopping, but I would definitely like to explore the market for local products. No malls for me.

Zara: If we don’t find anything in the market, will you please come with me to the mall? I won’t take too long, maybe a couple of hours.

Aditi: Not more than two hours then. Is that a deal?

Zara: Deal!

Aditi: I wonder how MANY more deals we will have before we actually land in Kathmandu.

Zara: I don’t know, but just going there, is a big deal for me!
