Getting Closer

Oh Porter! Donations did not exactly help with pack light!
It is getting so close. It looks like I will be bringing quite a load of training materials, books, CD's, and tools any shop would be proud to own. I will arrive in Kathmandu after 34 hrs travel time, although I understand China air may not run on time.

The Local Press

The Santa Cruz Sentinel sent a freelance reporter to interview me about the Nepal Project. The article was published today.

Today I also talked for three hours with a journalist from The Metro who may do a series of articles on my visit to Nepal. We talked about how the trip came about. We discussed how unusual it was for the members of iATN to widen their community spirit to encompass all their brothers and help children on the other side of the world.
