Inspire ta bhaiencha tara ...big tara...we all come from different back ground. There are many people like John Wood who can be altrustic and find personal satisfaction in doing such great work and there are people like us who can't quit everything and (go back.) we are living here for other people out there in Nepal . Those families expects us to pay them atleast something in return because they had to take loan, sell land or whatever to send us here.
