THE PROTÉGÉS G2 – D13

September 12, 2011

The Protégés kick-started their first morning in the magnificent Nepal bright and early, not knowing what they are going to do in the next couple of hours. Much to their surprise, The Protégés were told to repack their luggage and finish their breakfast quickly.
As they were leaving the lobby to enter the bus a spur-of-the-moment health inspection on the food The Protégés brought with them was conducted by mentor Ahmed Al Majed. All sad and gloomy (without their junk food), The Protégés continued their trip on the Yeti Airlines to Pokhara, the tourist capital of Nepal. The plane itself was new experience to most of the student ;)

In Pokhara The Protégés directly went to The Fulbari Resort & Spa. Mesmerized by the view, they spent hours exploring the hotel’s enormous gardens, the serene rivers, and the magnificence of the Himalayas rising behind them to create an ambience of peace and magic.

The breathtaking view!

After a quick rest and a (healthy) snack, The Protégés left to a bazaar-like street where they were divided amongst the mentors and started to roam the streets. After a couple of hours or so of discovering the beautiful cow-filled streets of Pokhara, it started to rain and the entire group met up in a café (god bless Wi-Fi

Cow filled streets :D

In the café, The Protégés ate and drank Nepali Tea, which surprisingly tastes a lot like a spicy Chai Latte. Later, The Protégés went back to the hotel and carried on the rest of the night with an indulging game of charades and another game which tested their general information conducted by the mentors. All worn-out and exhausted, they went to catch some shut-eye, not knowing about the adventures that follow ;)
