My office is on the second floor of this building
At Swayambhu, where the largest Buddha statue is located. Notice how Hinduism and Buddhism are intertwined here. Many Nepalese think that Buddhism is part of Hinduism, since Siddhartha Guatama was a Hindu born in Lumbini in Nepal before he attained enlightenment and became Buddha.
Stupa at Swayambhu
We came across a Nepali shoot in Kathmandu while covering a press conference at a nearby hotel. You just gotta love the costumes...
Me at Bhaktapur. Say it, I gained weight. Blame it on the naans and curries...More pictures to come tomorrow if Blogger continues to cooperate. In the meantime, check out my Flickr account link ("My Pics") located on the left side of this page.
