// THE GOOD ONES //


"I cannot handle people's suffering.
When I see someone in need,
I feel their sorrow like it was mine.
Even though I have very little,
all I think about is giving what I have
to the ones in need, the ones in the
streets,
 the ones who have no home.

 And when I have money, I do.
 When I don’t,
I shed a tear and walk away fast."

(Krishna Bahadur Tiwari,
Khalte,
 Dhadhing, Nepal.

// LOVE AUTUMN IN NORWAY //


Love this pic from one of our photoshoots
earlier this year.
This season is all about layers of wool
and buckets of tea.

We absolutely love the chilly,
but crispy autumns
in Oslo,
and the luxury of
heated houses and electricity.

After spending several winters in Kathmandu,
living in an uninsulated house
with temperatures down to zero
during the nights,
We have really learned how
to appreciate
the things we used to take for granted.

Lucky us (:

// COMPASSION IS ..... //




"Every time I went to the train station
 to buy goods,I would see him,
 quietly sitting by the corner. 
He wouldn't be begging. 
I heard a few people say that one day 
he just arrived 
there and has been there since.
 He would eat what the nearby shop-owners 
offered. 
So one day, I went to talk to him, 
but he didn't answer much. 
He would just utter a few words.
I felt sorry for him. 
So I decided to take him home. 
I tried to find out where he is from but 
no one knew so I assume he has wandered
 a long way. 
It has been six years now and I and my family
 take care him.
 He has become family.
 And we worry if he wanders too far." 

(Sanjay Yadav, Alau Kuniya, Parsa)
