At the moment I am very much intrigued (blown away, actually) by the ingenious, ancient, Nepalese drinking water supply system. Many people of Nepal still rely on the old dhunge dharas on a daily basis. I also wrote an article about the tutedhara's in Nepal.

After a small detour to Kuttam Pokuna and Galle Fort in Sri Lanka, I returned to Nepal with new articles about Alko Hiti, Nagbahal Hiti and Thanthu Darbar Hiti. I also did some writing on Tusha Hiti and Hiranya Varna Mahavihar. At the moment the Rajkulos have my attention.
