This book gives a personal account of some of the more light-hearted experiences over three decades of a woman who travelled alone for the first time in her forties to Nepal.

The journey was a life changing experience which was repeated every year for 26 years.

During these times, travel on extremely precarious roads by foot, taxi, and mule were faced, many hours were spent on an elephant looking for elusive rhino, and wanted and unwanted wildlife, such as monkeys, leeches, and rats were confronted.

Management of personal health conditions, the consequences of lack of language skills and having to deal with people wanting to extract money were endured.

These shared experiences not only enriched her life but had a positive impact on her personal development. A slogan in the streets of Kathmandu says, 'Don't try to change Nepal, Let Nepal change you'. In this case, it certainly did.
