Sari experiment



This is me with Susma and Laxmi at a wedding taking place at the EBT refuge in Godawari. The girls are both working in the workshop and dressed me up head to toe for the wedding. I know it is ridiculous for westerners to wear saris but it was so nice to get ready with the girls and feel very glamourous/ hot and sweaty. The boys in the top photo are also two of my students and their friends. Boys do not make so much of an effort it seems

KCAC

Last week the students and volunteer teachers got the chance to do some abseiling at the Kathmandu contemporary arts centre where we our workshop is based. The outdoor adventure company 'Outdoor Initiative' kindly provided the activity for the charity, with nearly all of the students taking part....










And some pictures I took on the way to buy some silver..........
