One of the foremost challenges when visiting new places is the unknown. It can either be exciting or scary to some people. One way we can calm the nerves or fan the excitement is to inform ourselves. The first step was to peruse the CIA Factbook site to see what generally is going on in Nepal.
The Internet has a great many sources at our disposal and I will offer a few to you as a starting point. Please feel free to leave a comment of a site that you have found, or a reading that you recommend and I will add it here!
Lonely Planet is always a good place to start with basic traveler information, and also ratings, top picks and tips. Don't forget to visit the library as we have the LP Nepal book on the shelves! A competitor to LP is The Rough Guide to Nepal which also shares similar information.
Naturally Nepal is a promotional site from the Nepal Tourism Board that brands Nepal with the statement, "Unleash Yourself………Naturally Nepal, Once is not enough." Have a look through the brochures, current events and even a link to ask questions about Nepal. The Downloads section has some thorough descriptions of where we are going, and what we will be doing in Nepal.
