NEPAL 2003

In 2003 I spent a couple of weeks in Kathmandu with a japanese friend who often visits Nepal to help charity organizations.
Some of the images are just about the place, but a few were realized thanks to the support of ROKPA.
Rokpa is an international non profit organization that operates in Tibet and Nepal.
