Back in Pokhara today and will be flying to Jomsom for a final 10 day trek in Nepal before flying to India on the 17th January. Previous 4 days spent at the Osho centre retreat sitting on my backside and meditating alongside a once a day session of yoga starting at 07.30. The centre is situated in the subtropical forest surrounding the Kathmandu Valley, very beautiful and lush within the sound of a waterfall. Many westerners as well as Nepali people staying. The accommodation was very comfortable and even included air conditioning, unheard of here, though availability was dependant on 12 hour a day power cuts (referred to here as 'power loading!). The 20 euro's a day included 3 meals albeit vegan, but managed to adjust to the lack of meat and dairy products. We celebrated New Year with a bonfire and music in the forest, this included an excellent cake made without eggs or butter, baked for the occasion.
After 4 days felt suitably relaxed and ready to cope with the final trek and yet again made the 6 hour + bus journey to Pokhara.
