With Benjamin, every day brings it's moment of share and meeting with people which makes the discovery of the country so different and special. Close to the inhabitants, to their culture, history and life, Benjamin allows you to see Nepal through nepali eyes.

第一次遇见本杰明的时候，我说我来尼泊尔不是为了看喜马拉雅的，之后因缘多次随他进山。他给予的更接近灵性上超越地域的帮助，山谷只是一种途径，让我感到自己开始扎根。

Please arrange your own: transportation to and from Kathmandu airport, visa to Nepal.
You won't be asked to make donations, however, if you have used items that you don't need, e.g. kids' clothes, feel free to bring some. Personally I like to bring used clothes and give them out, with the space I free up from my suitcase, I can fill it with new items I purchase from Nepal, great place to shop for hand crafts, Cashmere products, spice etc.

请自理：
个人往返加德满都的机票；签证（尼泊尔可以落地签，一般为了节省时间本人喜欢先办理签证再出境，费用低，时间短，需要签证中心联系方式的可联系我们）；个人产生的费用及不可预计的费用 ；其他个人消费
此行程不会要求你募捐或者支援，不过若有不需要的孩童衣服，可以带上一些，量力而行。本人经验，我通常带上少许的二手衣服，捐送出去后行李箱位置正好可以放置新添的物品。我眼中的加德满都购物处大概就像几年前西方人眼中的秀水市场吧。手工艺品，羊毛制品，喜马拉雅产物，香料，儿童登山服等等。
