| A suggestion: Look for pullovers and sweatshirts in Thamel. Some of them are REALLY good...Pullovers are not in stock anywhere else in Ktm. |

| suggestion: if you want a lot of post cards, postures related to nepali arts and cultures for souvenir you can go to tourism board at bhrikutimandap and its all free!! I think you have to take your visa or photocopy of your visa to get 'em. | |

| @Rena ..thanks .. where are your transit stops ??
@ nissud.... travel cheques are absolutely safe ... well, the main logic behind TC is that unlike Cash, your money can be recovered even if your travel cheques gets lost by simply calling your bank.. moreover, it is very easy to use too.. you simply present your TC to a bank or a currency exchange shop, sign the TC on its backside and your work is done. You'll get the amount. the only problem you'll face with TC is when you seriously need cash and there aren't any banks or currency exchange shops around .. otherwise TC is quite safe n useful.. | |

| Didn't your university send you a book list or something? Or are you talking about extra books? I'm ordering used books from Amazon and having them shipped to my university mailbox. | |
