I thought no one commented and now I see a lot. <br /><br />Milan, you are so right. One one hand you have to watch out for cheaters, but on the other you can get help from anyone. I've seen it happen where a random woman helped me with a rickshaw driver and he obeyed her like a child. It's a fascinating society.

You can scold them or call for help the persons nearby actually 95% of beggars are not from Kathmandu and you don't have to worry of as you face in India. Ya you need to always stay in registered guest house or hotels cause there you won't be cheated for fares and facilities but also ask all the questions that you want before stay. If you are travelling by feet to some places have a good view of map and incase of confusion don't hesitate to ask the people for the way to your destination I prefer you not to be shy of. But if you are travelling by local taxi or rickshaw always ask the hotel staff where you stay to help for the fares cause there, its the main problem I have seen for tourists they can ask you upto 2-5 times up than they need so please have some informations that how much it will cost you if you travel by ... ... from the hotel you stay in case if you know the route you can travel by local bus but I suggest you to use tourist vehicles it's safer than the lical ones. The second thing if you are using a guide ask for the professionals one to know about him you can ask some questions to know if he/she is perfect to travel with. Don't hire a simple guide who will just describe you as you can read in your travel books they will only mislead you. Hope you guys understand. Be sure that Kathmandu is a safer place for tourist but also be careful for pickpocketers thieves and road accidents its not a huge problem there are only few finger countable cases of it but also who knows may be some days are bad for us. Always remember to note down the vehicle no if you can message it to your friends before you get in and don't forget to pick all your luggage before and after you use any transportation vehicles. And lastly that you can ask for anyone nearby for help don't be shy, nervous or be afraid of any one if you are not doing things out of law. But also I suggest you to travel always with safe and secured.<br /><br />And to the anonymous writer I don't think you need to help to the students cause they can manage their livings and education fares but also it's your choise and their will you can ask them.<br /><br />With lots of love to the author of this blog post 'the tourists manual' and to all the visitors of nepal.<br />By;<br />Milan Maharjan<br />Gmgrandsons.blogspot.com<br />Milan Maharjanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05513194158501145761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5803829010154467649.post-8529451518880334742014-02-20T19:53:28.077-08:002014-02-20T19:53:28.077-08:00I think this is a great idea. So many just need a ...I think this is a great idea. So many just need a leg up, but they can become a lazy dependent if you don't set some guidelines. I would suggest that they send you their transcripts and school enrollment forms. Some will be in Nepalese, but you can usually tell what the paper is for. A lot of the official forms are in English. No one makes 100% on the finals or even 80%. It goes tier 1 tier 2 and those that fail. Tier 1 grades are around 70%. Horrible school system here in Nepal.<br /><br />I would give them support but keep them on a short leash. Then they would need to provide you all the documents that shows they completed the semester. But another thing is that they don't get the results of their final for a year after they take the test. My suggestion is for the young Nepali to be responsible by providing you all the documents to make sure you know they are studying. I'd also send the money to the school instead of them.<br /><br />Good luck. I hope it works out well for you.

They're very kind. That made me very close to them. They also support themselves by working as a math tutor and working as a porter during the high season of trekking. They told me this coming January they will start taking Master Degree in Mathematics. I have been thinking maybe I should send some money maybe twice a year, around 500$ to help them with their school. But I'm worried if that's a good idea or maybe they will feel offended . Can you please give an advice.
