My visa didn’t work out so well. I was approved for a 90 day single entry visa. I didn’t end up leaving my passport to get it processed because then the 90 days would start immediately. I am going to have to come back to Kathmandu and do that before leaving Nepal. I’m not super excited about it. It hasn’t been terrible staying in Kathmandu, but this was basically a waste of a trip. If I had known I would have just stayed in Pokhara and not come. Now I have to take another very long, crappy bus ride back to Pokhara tomorrow. I’m excited to be back there, though. It’s a great place and I have a whole month to just bum around, relax and try to find an income.

I’m going to miss my travel companions. We’re mostly splitting up now. I can’t believe I only met them a week ago! It feels like I’ve known them forever. It will be really, really strange to not be seeing them again anytime soon. Although who knows – maybe I’ll bump into them in India. We all went out to dinner tonight which was really nice.

I’m thinking more about going home. It’s time and I know. At this point I’m mostly just killing time (which I can’t really afford to do). I think my month in Pokhara will be great. Afterwards I’ll probably go to India and then fly home. Maybe sometime in October or November. Hmm. I suppose anything can happen though.
