Article Appreciation and Big Hello Back Home!

I just wanted to send a quick smile to everyone from home. I heard that I was fortunate enough to have a nice article published in the Galveston Daily News over the holidays. Big thank you to the journalist, Rick, for your interest and time! It’s been really great to receive supportive emails and hear from my fellow Texans as we enter this holiday season, a nostaligic family time completely lost here in Nepal and throwing me in and out of homesick moments! That said, travels are still going great. I’m mountain biking to Nargakot today, a hill top village where I should see Mt Everest for the first time… so I’m definitely keeping my head up! Anyway, I look forward to replying to emails when I get back to Kathmandu and I just wanted to send a big thank you to all of you who’ve made my Thanksgiving a little warmer!

P.S. I’m a quite embarrassed by shameless self promotion but for those interested, here in the online version: http://news.galvestondailynews.com/story.lasso?ewcd=f7a88a48bec7ac371f2ed3b05899388f 

** Oh well, seems my 15 minutes of fame has passed. The link is no longer good. If you’re very interested however, you can contact my mom - I think  she has 50 or so print copies of the newspaper, haha. :)
