Kathmandu, Nepal
It was the first time Howard and I had been back to Kathmandu since the earthquake. The damage is still very apparent. Aside from the damage, the most shocking observation is that the snow is disappearing from the mountains. Iswor, Howard’s Tae Kwon Do teacher, spent a lot of time with us walking around town. We visited with a lot of other friends as well. And we did some touristy things, too.
Vienna, Austria
Howard and I are currently living in Bangkok and as such have opportunities to travel. For a recent workshop, we were able to stop in Vienna for a few days. It’s a beautiful city. The people are very nice and offer to help you find what you’re looking for if you’re lost (sometimes) or look lost (most times). But it’s a pretty easy city to get around in. We visited in May and the weather was crisp and cool, just perfect. We took the Hop On Hop Off bus tour upon arrival to see the sites and get our bearings, which we do in every new city. Please enjoy the photos below. Oh yeah, the food and beer are great!
