Markus Ananda Oskari No doubt it’s about the April 2015 mag 8 quake aftermath. Scores of people dead, villages flattened and economies destroyed. (Estimates at losses from the quake hover around 35% of the country’s GDP.) Good overview on wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/April_2015_Nepal_earthquake … and for a more hands-on on the ground sense, check out Funky Buddha Hands, a project by some friends who have been helping out in the crisis. Many blessings to you for helping out in times of need. The people(s) of Nepalis are beautiful, I remember my time in there with a fond heart.

Brian Feather I had and inkling this was why some new faces, however there have been at least 15-20 families that have been here for a good 2-3 years already, all the dwellings are within a couple mile radius. my new friend Birkha has been here 8 months. I gotta help these guys, they have never used a telephone and they are in the lions den here in America only 1 teenage daughter can speak some English and i speak with Birkha in a slimy mix of Hindi, Gujarati and English all in the soup so i recon ill ask permission to speak with her and set the tone for translation so i dont get anything wrong as im sure i can get them food and help turn the social service machines on. teach how to fix the house and i can line him up as a neighborhood manual helper.

on a different note- as far as food, he didnt even recognize some of the fruit but got more excited about the potatoes. I would presume that Indian staples in general would suffice, no? anything else that may be a semi delicacy for them that i could find at say, any of our Indian supermarkets or even at the temple?

i will check out the links thanks! thanks also for the warm comments,
