Time is flying...

...to fast.
I can´t believe I have less than 2 weeks more to go!!! uhhhhhh.....

And one week ago Miss Lee left the monastery, this amazing warmhearted funny lady, was only here for some weeks, but I really liked her, and she will be missed of many.

So I want to honor her for her kindness and dedication for all in the monastery with some pictures.

 Teaching Chinese and math...

 Out for a stroll in Kathmandu...
 Dinner at another teacher at the Monastery, Shyam, and his so lovely family! 
 Project work...
 The good bye....

The students waving Good Bye, the smallest once screamed: -See yo tomorrow! :)

Thanks sweet Miss Lee!!! See you again, if that is suppose to happened..

time for rice planting...

Right now, all around the monastery are the activity high out on the fields, its time to plant the rice.,,

 ...here are the plants, just waiting to come down into the water....
... mostly women work on the fields, barefoot in the water...
 The plateau plantations are  now filled with water after all the  heavy rain, so perfect time for planting ..

I am so amazed, that i walk around here, and live here, and can see all this beauty right outside my door!!!

Outside my widow...

Early this morning was full activity outside my window. The Monsoon started for real! WOW, our whole front yard is overflowing! And it´s threatening to enter the building.
 Everybody are up, looking at the mess the rain is creating... But I´m lucky, I can stand in my room and take my photos...
 The smallest ones are most fascinated of all the frogs that starts to pop up... hmmm... I don´t want frogs in my room. I have a huge gape under my door, and this is 50 -60 cm from it... And I remember from Thailand when that happened..
 It´s a dirty work, but some has to do it...
 and all do, without complainings. It´s very near that the water flow over...
The guys were working hard, fast and energetic. After a while they were able to concur the water masses...
 Look at the sky... wow... I guess we will have a couple of month of this now...hm... This is only the beginning...
 ...everybody were soaking wet, from top to toe... (I don´t even wanna think about what this can do with the health and fever that started here)
 Dancing in the rain :) when the water was beaten ( for now anyway) everybody started to play and have fun instead :)
And right now....... activity stopped, the rain lost a bit of its intense & power... and outside my room is silence... But the water made huge holes in the ground... that must be taken care of, otherwise we will have real problems.
