Yesterday was the big change of age!! Very strange waking up in another country and still being surprised by presents from home (thanks Mum and Nan!) Also, one of the perks of being in beautiful Nepal is the fantastic treasure to be found on endless street stalls. As a result I got a fabulous silk pashmina scarf, bracelet and handmade Tibetan earrings from Lukey :)
We spent the day relaxing, drinking coffee and talking on the phone to home. When we returned to the hostel in the evening we were welcomed with a party on the roof top garden! Complete with party food, whiskey and a delicious personalised chocolate cake, it was an unbelievable surprise and I really didn't expect such a night being so far away from home.
I missed the fun and frolicis of home but the powers of facebook mean we are never too far away. I recieved so many lovely messages from my beautiful buddies....cheers guys :)
All in all it was an amazing start to what I'm sure is going to be a great year...here's to being 25 :)

Perfect example of the generous and hospitable Nepalese people and reaffirms that we found a perfect haven here in Shangri-La guest house. I am so grateful that we have met such brilliant people.
