They were so friendly and welcoming. The children were very eager to pose for a photo. The boy with the red cap was hesitant at first, but then his mother told him to say \u201cNamaste\u201d to us and this was the action that followed. On our way to Kathmandu I reminded the tour guide that I still need my rice worker photo. He saw this elderly woman next to the road and he asked her if she had an issue taking a photo. She replied with a friendly \u201cNo\u201d. The tour guide asked her if she could smile and I even got a wave! I love her shirt!<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-200724 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/en\/nepal-april-2017-953-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-953-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-953-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-953-24x24.jpg 24w, https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-953-48x48.jpg 48w, https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-953-96x96.jpg 96w, https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-953-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/en\/nepal-april-2017-502-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-502-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-502-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-502-24x24.jpg 24w, https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-502-48x48.jpg 48w, https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-502-96x96.jpg 96w, https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-502-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/en\/nepal-april-2017-1004-2\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-1004-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-1004-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-1004-24x24.jpg 24w, https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-1004-48x48.jpg 48w, https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-1004-96x96.jpg 96w, https:\/\/wereldwyd.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nepal-april-2017-1004-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p><strong>Food on the table<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of my goals in Nepal was to take a few photos of people working on the rice plantations.
