One year ago was the first big earthquake in Nepal. Even though in most parts of Nepal everything looks quite normal ag*in, there are still people who suffer from it because they lost their homes or loved people. We wish everbody a lot of energy to get through it, not only the people in Nepal, but also the people in Japan or Ecuador who are affected by earthquakes.

G*i Jatra Festival - Bhaktapur

G*i Jatra, the festival of cows, (g*i means cow and jatra means festival in Nepali) is celebrated today in Nepal. Mainly the Newar and Tharu community celebrate it.
The festival commemorates the death of people during the year. During the festival, cows are marched in the streets. People also distribute food to others. The festival of cows is one of the most popular festivals of Nepal.
Here are pictures of it in Bhaktapur today.

You can see some pictures of the Durbar Square in Bhaktapur as well. One of the temples is destroyed, all other temples there are still standing.

Here you can see some impressions of the orphanage in Sundarijal. It has been established in 2009 and is our most developed project. The kids have many facilities there like dancing class, taekwondo lessons, coffee roasting facility... In addition the Bottle House produces paper which we can sell that they can g*in money themselves. The house has been totally built with bottles, which have been lying on the trekking trails. They have been transported to Sundarijal and we made the houses with them. During the earthquake in April 2015 the houses have been partial destroyed, but we have been able to rebuild them, little bit less nice than before. Now we are paning to expand the orphanage and build a school near to it. The school will be available for every child, no matter if rich or poor, but the standard of the school will be like a private school, with many facilities like computers and other technical things as well. in addtion we will offer apprenticeships there where for example the boys can learn some technical things like repairing things and the girls can learn how to stitch. Not everybody can get so good results at school, but if they know how to produce handicrafts etc., they will have the chance for a future job as well.
If you want you can volunteer here; help with cooking, help with homework, teach them how to play guitar, etc.

Rebuilding work in the district Nuwakot which was totally destroyed by the earthquake

Here you can see some pictures of our volunteering work in Sikre, which is located in the district Nuwakot about 5 hours far from Kathmandu. During the earthquakes in Nepal many houses have been destroyed, especially in the villages. With donations we got, we are building some houses for people now, who can't afford it themselves and are also rebuilding the school in the small village Gurgaon in Sikre.
Right now we need many volunteers to help there.
The People in the village and ist surroundings are very happy about the work there. We also plan to support this school further. The children and also the teacher speak only very few english, so we plan to send volunteers there who can teach them and also pay better educated staff who can teach. Learning english is very important for them. They have the chance to get a good job, especially in the tourism sector and are more independent then.

Today a strong (7.9) earthquake hit Nepal in the area halfway between the capital Kathmandu and the tourist town Pokhara.
The earthquake caused extensive damage to buildings and dozens of injuries and was even felt in Pakistan, India and Bangladesh. Until now more than 1000 deaths are confirmed.
Thankfully all staff and clients of our organisation are safe.
Our thoughts are with the people in Nepal - stay safe!!!

Mt. Everest: highest mountain on earth with a height of 8.848m, incalculably and incredible fascinating at the same time, first ascent in 1953 by Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary. All these thoughts come automatically in our minds when we hear this name. And it inspires many of us to experience this mountain in reality, to explore the area, where the big expedition on the peak start and to feel the atmosphere during these huge mountains and large glaciers around us, which let us feel so small compared to this incredible landscape!
Experience this great nature during one of our Everest Region Treks.
