Glimpse Of A Day ,Notes As Part of Travel

Tourism has been fascination to all as cultural marker .You can review PMO India tweets and other related tourist sector development with political articulations in Odisha in the age of computer and capitalistic culture with globalization and technological digitalizatition.This is the age of a skillful mix of history, reportage, memoir and travelogue,in the journalistic trenches, mourning the shrinking and shuttering of newspapers and magazines, bemoaning declining salaries and freelance rates, jawing about the elusive new business model that will somehow reverse all these trends.

Yesteday whole day I spent in Sanothimi Bhaktapur locations and the beautiful scenery cannot be forgotten at all.I just visited SOS Children Village area.SOS Children’s Village Sanothimi is the first Children’s Village in Nepal established in 1972. It is situated just the outskirts of the Kathmandu city and the western border of the Bhaktapur district, about 15 minutes’ drive from the Tribhuvan International Airport. Although it is close to the city, it is away from everyday hustle and bustle of the city life. Near the Village flows the Manohara River separating two districts Kathmandu and Bhaktapur.After visiting the locations I reached to Tribhuvan University ,it is the most favorite place for me as it  has gravity to attract our heart .I reached to the canteen locations where most of the students were fascinated with aaloo tama.I just gave the order to have it too.Aloo Bodi Tama is a Nepali curry with bamboo-shoot, potatoes, and black-eyed peas. Naturally vegan, gluten-free, aloo bodi tama makes a great side with plain rice ( or any other grains such as quinoa, couscous, freekeh)  or can be enjoyed by itself as a hearty stew.

I reached to library where students were discussing lots of novels with authors .There’s no question that getting a book as a present is great no matter what the title or when it happens. But what about those books that we’re given that are so special they alter the course of our lives in some way or change the way we think about the world?I just saw the crowd were busy with books my work was to have a look only and return to home with the conceptual framework of reading  as these libraries and librarians play a vital role in supporting students to become engaged readers. They are the ones that come to meetings/gatherings to listen in. They’re usually open to ideas, exchanging information, helpful, impressionable and actually hear things you might be saying (reason you have to stop saying vague things you’ve been saying all your life). They want to know you, your book, as well as how you wrote it. They have a lot of questions and are open to ideas.

Anyway my journey from Sanothimi Bhakatapur revealed as  a beautiful experience .Traveling promotes happiness and helps you take your mind off stressful situations. This leads to lower cortisol levels, making you feel more calm and content.It opens your eyes on what is really true and what really matters. It inspires you, shows you how to be a better person and how to improve your life. You start asking yourself big and important questions and opening your mind to new ideas.Traveling allows you to separate yourself from the past and learn to let go of painful memories.There is something extremely special and unique about sharing your life with strangers from all over the World. Every traveler has a story to tell and a lesson to give you. And some of them stay with you forever, deep in your heart, even if you are not together any more.So,this is the best way to explore own life.ravel is the way to know other people’s culture very much easily. All of us wants to know each and every culture, this is the nature of every human. Without travelling, it is not possible to know other people’s culture. We have to travel outside our city, state or even country to know their own culture. How they eat, wear clothes, enjoy festivals and so on.

Besides essential food, most of people love to eat new food items during their travelling to a new destination. I have seen lots of travelers whose only aim to search and eat popular food items in the host city/state/country. Each and every city has their own unique food recipes. So, travelling is the most important way to taste your favorite food.Nepalese dishes are generally healthier than most other South Asian cuisine, relying less on using fats and more on chunky vegetables, lean meats, pickled ingredients and salads. Whilst Nepal does take heavy influences from its closest geographical companions such as India ,China and Tibet  this mountainous country only opened up its borders to outsiders in the 1950s. This factor, in addition to transport and trade difficulties Nepal’s geographical setting, has maintained a focus on using locally grown produce.Daal-bhaat-tarkari is eaten twice, if not at least once everyday in most households. However, remember that Nepal is a diverse country and depending upon the region you are from, your staple could be barley, meat, or potatoes. Tourism is the largest source of foreign income as the stats clearly shows that more than 40 % of the country’s eight hundred thousand visitors traveled for trekking and tours.

Tourism can be a huge source of income for us. If we can bring in at least 20 million tourists every year, that will automatically raise our living standard to that of some Southeast Asian countries.Currently, we barely manage to receive 1 million tourists. When you compare that with the world’s tourist destinations, that’s peanuts - simply pathetic.France (82.6 million), USA (75.6 million), Spain (75.6 million), China (59.3 million), Italy (52.4 million), UK (35.8 million), Germany (35.6 million), Mexico (35 million), Thailand (32.6 million), Austria (28.1 million).Every Southeast Asian country receives more than 10 million tourists each year. Every country in the Middle East receive more tourists than us.Nepal has the potential to attract as many tourists as Malaysia (26.8 million), Hong Kong (26.6 million), Singapore (12.9 million) and Indonesia (12 million). But where are we going wrong. We have 10 of the world’s highest mountain peaks in the world. We have some of the most beautiful destinations. We have the birthplace of Buddha (which alone can attract millions of tourists).
