The true meaning
of Life
We are visitors on this planet
We are here for ninety
or one hundred years
at the very most.
During that period,
we must try to do
something good,
something useful
with our lives.
If you contribute
to other people's happiness,
you will find the true goal,
the true meaning of live.
(His Holiness the XIVth Dalai Lama)

Nepal

Nepal is a small, landlocked Himalayan country located between the Tibetan autonomous region of the people's republic of China in the north and India in the west south and east. The lands extend approximately 885 km from east to west and 193 km from North to South. Within these borders lie 8 of the world's highest mountains and undoubtedly one of the best trekking areas and mountain expeditions in the world. Nepal serves the interest of all categories of tourist ranging from leisure vacationers, adventure lovers, researchers and honeymooners.

People
Nepal has a composite population stemming from various racial and ethnic communities. It has been a melting pot of diverse linguistic and ethnic groups with population 25 million living in different regions, wearing different costumes and speaking different languages and dialects. The people belong to multi-ethnic groups, ranging from the Indo-Aryan to Mongoloid. The Himalayan and central hilly regions are mostly inhabited by the people of the Tibeto-Burman strand while the people inhabiting the Terai lowlands may be grouped under the Indo-Aryan category.

Religion
Hinduism and Buddhism constitute two major religions in Nepal. A remarkable feature of Nepal is the religious homogeneity what exists, particularly between the Hindu and Buddhist communities. Apart from the Hindus and Buddhists, Muslim forms the third largest religious group.

History an
Nepal has a long glorious history. Its civilization can be traced back to thousand of years before the birth of Christ. For centuries, the kingdom of Nepal was divided into many principalities (Chaubise States). Kirantas ruled in the east, the Newars in the Kathmandu Valley, while Gurungs and Magars had their domain the mid-west. The Kirantas were said to have ruled their territories from 300 B.C. The country took its present shape only after 1768 A.D. when Prithvi Narayan Shah, King of Gorkha, conquered and united all the tiny states into one kingdom.

Few words about myself. My name Faust Zsolt I was born in Budapest on 1965 May 08. I've got the travelbug very early at the age of 15. I have been travelling since. I' ve hitchicked 80.000 kilometres all over Europe in the 80's. I lived in a few countries for longer time. (Sweden,Germany,Nepal,USA). I have taken 5 round the World trips and I've visited 115 countries so far. I like Asia, and my favourite country is Nepal, where I have been many many times. I know the peoples and the highlands as well. I always return there with a pleasure. Some time I lead fascinating tours presenting the local customs and the wonderful world of the mountains. I am an associanate owner in a travel agency in Nepal, and also in Cambodia. We organazing adventure tours in Nepal and all of the east Asian countries for individual and small goups as well.We are taking advantage of our Asian experiences and our familiarity with the places, so our tours are more interesting, more exciting.

"Adventure is a path. Real adventure - self-determined, self-motivated, often risky - forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind - and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be black-and-white." - Mark Jenkins
