the path ended at a cluster of huts, not really a restaurant. but the guy had a lot of fresh fish and offered to make us lunch83 views

the bats were fascinating, but we were still freaked out & refused to go any further. here, when we actually reached daylight, we started laughing hysterically, insanely hysterically. fun experience in retrospect82 views

flying to Kathmandu from Dhaka, the views were pretty stunning. what we thought at first were clouds above the clouds, turned out to be the Himalayas. it was pretty mindboggling the first time, but these photos don't capture that unfortunately76 views

the 2nd and last of our cave experiences. this one was actually really interesting and worth the excruciating process. the cave was deep down and pitch dark. we had one lamp with us, which barely shed enough light for one person to walk, let alone 4.73 views

shahrina & i both had panic attacks once we were deep inside the pitch black cave & slipping & sliding on bat shit. got seriously claustrophobic & started freaking out. but then we realized we were surrounded by thousands of these bats!73 views
