Our Nepal journey wrapped up with unexpected wildlife, peaceful temples, and heartfelt goodbyes. From leopard sightings on safari to home stays in Dhangadhi and a quiet afternoon in Lumbini’s sacred gardens, these final days were slower, sweeter, and full of reflection.

Before Nepal, Syria, or any big-ticket trips, there were small towns, school moves, family holidays, and childhood memories. This is our story up to 2010 from Kendal and Newcastle to summer holidays abroad, the roots of why we travel today.
