Although intrigued by these foreigners arrived in Nepal with strict material possessions, never made ​​friends with those who regard the phenomenon as a fad that will soon disappear. So when I came to the United States , every American who told me that he / she was in Nepal I got the third degree . I wanted to know the circumstances in which they had been there .
