I've been living in Nepal for over 9 years now, so I've experienced many things that short-term visitors don't expect to deal with. I'm learning more every day and Nepal is developing pretty fast, too. This post is an update to what I'd written previously. Why? I've had two more ordeals around the postal issue, so there are a lot more lessons I've learned the hard way; you can learn the easy way.
This is one of our earlier videos from our Youtube channel; please excuse the microphone issue and you'll be rewarded with a much easier postal experience in Nepal. I hope you enjoy it.
I needed something I just couldn’t find in Nepal, and therefore had to order something on the internet and had it mailed. It shouldn’t have been an ordeal to write home about.
Each year or so I need to have credit/debit cards sent to me and it usually costs at least $120 and this last time my brother put BA for Bagmati district in Nepal and it went to Bosnia; it finally arrived. Another time I had it go to a friend in Kathmandu to his business, then I had it go to my other friend’s business in Changunarayan. These were the best plans, but I had to pay for FedX international rates for letters.
