THE LAST DAY :(



                                                                                                         14th May 2015

           It was the last day in Kathmandu before going to the airport and take a flight to go back to Barcelona. Olivia and I decided to do something different from walking the streets, so we visited the Patan Museum in the morning until lunch time and then we went to the Bardiya National Park

          The Patan Museum is located in Patan Durbar, Nepal. It displays the traditional sacred art of the country in an illustrious architectural setting. Its home is an old residential court of Patan Darbar, one of the royal palaces of the former Malla kings of the Kathmandu Valley. Its gilded door and window face one of the most beautiful squares in the world.


                                          
                                          

      After having lunch, we took the car and drove to the Bardiya National Park. It´s a protected area established in 1988. Covering an area of 968 km2, it is the largest and most undisturbed national park in Nepal´s Terai. The Nepalgunj-Surkhet highway partly forms the southern boundary, but seriously disrupts the protected area. Natural boundaries to human settlements are formed in the west by the Geruwa, a branch of the Karnali River, and in the southeast by the Babai River

            In fact, there are no words to express how marvelous was that place! We loved it so much, not as much as the safari in Zanzibar, but, wow, it was very impressive seeing that wold animals that close!!

         At 8pm we left the car in the rent-shop, and we went walking to the hotel. We were very tired, but we had enjoy it so much! It had been a very, very greatful experience. We connected very soon with nature. We could feel the silence of the landscapes with no roads or crowd of people at all, we could relax in those magnificent and beautiful beaches of Tanzania... I think this travel had taught us really truthful values about how can you live the life without any material object-or only a bit of it- at all. We´d connected with our interior, we´d learnt how to be better people... Definitely, it´s been the best trip I ever done.
