Unfortunately the heavy rain has not given me a lot, so the other day I took a jeep collective that brought me once again into chaos ‘true Indian’ in Siliguri.
The next morning I woke up early and I stopped a minibus, according to the conductor, was a non-stop directly adjacent to the Nepalese border. Instead, although already ‘inwardly I knew, was a local bus that stopped at every moment to have more’ passengers possibile.Ci has also put the conductor who, thinking they did not know the price of the ticket, do not give me the volema the rest. A little ‘angry I came to the Nepalese border, but now the new gateway to the highlands was waiting for me.
The first city ‘in the Nepalese border and authorized foreigners’ Kakabhitta, and tropical in the south east of Nepal. At this point I was informed that things were not as’ easy to reach the capital, the floods caused by heavy monsoon rains in the Indian state of Bihar have caused many casualties, even in Nepal had made disasters, destroying the bridge over the river Koshi and therefore blocking the mobility ‘in the middle of the country. In a few minutes so I was forced to look for a direct flight to Kathmandu. The airport of this city was a whole program with the controls and the methods’ boarding created manually.
Here I met Anitha, a Nepalese who helped me to translate. Before embarking told me that two months before the flight to Kathmandu was canceled due to bad weather.
