Ghorka village

Love this village.  Here we are on the way...


The hike up is nothing compared to the 4 day trek we just did...

Hospitality here is off the charts.  Tea is served as soon as we land...



Love the animals here!  Here's the Buffalo ...




Goats...




Fresh grapefruit off their grapefruit trees!


And fresh peas.  What a treat!

It costs almost nothing for these folks to live in the village as they grow everything they need.  When a goat is 2 years old they sell it for meat for $200.00.  So every two years there can be a chance to earn some cash if they own a goat.  Many villagers just farm for themselves here.  Some farm to sell in Ghorka or in Ktm.
