Nepal Info

What cultural considerations should I think about?
Is it safe to go to Nepal?
How can I get around the country?

These questions are all answered in this section. It's certain that more information will be available from Lonely Planet, Rough Guide etc. but this is my own perspective on the country - including the aspects that cause most confusion... or embarrassment!

If you've been to Nepal and think there should be any changes to these pages, do feel free to get in touch.

Nepal Info Pages

• Safety in Nepal: An attempt to put often-biased reports into perspective. Recent events have made Nepal's security situation very high profile - but it can be difficult to put this into perspective.
• Getting around: How to travel around Nepal - and the various forms of transport to be seen in the capital.
• Culture - a brief guide to Nepal's culture. This page is in development, but will aim to be a practical guide including considerations for medical work.
• What to do: Personal highlights and recommendations.
