Way towards freedom
Tenderness is melting away from heart
when you run breaking all limits
glow a light and stumble on your way
you are a flying bird,go fly away
Mount above your heart,your soul
budge your foot to achieve your goal
no one can obstruct you when you are confident with your self
but always try to move your foot one step ahead.....

Bhotekoshi river rafting
Hundred percent adrenaline rushThe Bhote Kosi – the name implies that this river has its origin in Bhot or Tibet. It has upper sections of grade 5 and 6. Most of the commercially rafted section is from much lower down and has an overall grade of 4 with a couple or so harder rapids that warrant a 4+ or 5-.
It is so near from Kathmandu that you can be on the river the same day as you leave Kathmandu. In fact, this is the only river with such gradients and so near from Kathmandu.
Transportation to the riverThe bus journey from Kathamndu takes 3-4 hours and rises up out of the valley and drops down into the Sun kosi valley near Dolalghat (the Sun Kosi put-in). From here the valley is followed upstream and is still called the Sun Kosi. Close to Bahrabise the Sun Kosi turns east and the Bhote Kosi goes north. Close to the 95km marker the river can be accessed a run. Further upstream the grades increase and they say that if you don't get scared, just keep going upstream and eventually you will!
On the riverWhen you reach the put in point, you will be amazed to see that the crews have already prepared lunch for you. Then you start the adventures of the day. The day is over at a campsite where the crews will have already reached with the gears and all stuff. May be the dinner is also ready.
The following day, after breakfast, again you are on the thrilling rapids. In the afternoon, you will reach the put out point and you will proceed to Kathmandu.

Solukhumbu Trek
Travelling is a part of enjoyment and knowledge. To travel from one place to another, to explore new spaces and interact with new people are some of my hobbies. My trek to solukhumbu is one of my unforgettable or treasured moments of my life. When I landed in phaplu airport by Nepal airlines I got really excited. When I landed there, I came to know evidently and practically that our country is fully enclosed by natural beauties and that is why many tourists from far flung countries visit here to see this awesome beauty. About half an hour walk from airport, we reached the heart of Solukhumbu i.e. Sadarmukam Salleri. In the very first day, I visited salleri chialsa PTV. Limited, home for dalits and many more. Next day, I went for trek to salleri chialsa powerhouse i.e. hydropower and also watched the turbines. When I woke up early the next morning, I saw the authentic view of Duthkunda himal. In the very next day, I along with the three staffs from my brother’s office started our trek to Junbesi which was around eight to nine hours’ walk. We started our trek from Salleri-Phaplu-Bagwana-Beni-Khamje and ultimately we reached Jjunbesi at night.
Adventurous Trek
Mount-Everest trekking
Mount-everest trekking is Famous for its spectacular mountain peaks and the loyalty and friendliness of its inhabitants (the Sherpas), the Everest region (Khumbu) is one of the most popular destinations for tourists in Nepal. While many of the routes through the mountains are arduous, there are ample places to rest and enjoy a meal along the way. Furthermore, don't worry about getting lost. Just ask a local the way to the next village on your route, and they will direct you. Most Sherpas under the age of fifty can at least understand basic English, and many speak it fluently.
