Hahaha Guys give him a break . I hope he isn't trolling around! I understand the fact the he was born and raised in Nepal but hasn't been back for over twenty years. So he's little stressed and anxious about making a trip . Also, he reminded about not having contacts with friends and family. I made a reference about paying foreigner's rate above not because I did but one of my friend who's a US citizen did after showing US passport as an ID at a resort. The people back there will definitely treat you as they'd treat another compatriot but the difference is the perception of dealing with the reality. For example, you'd go to a store (let's say grocery) and expect some sort of customer service but won't get it (at most of the places). Quintessentially, I like to refer it as "counter-cultural-shock" . What I meant to say is you'd expect same sort of behavior( here in the US) but you won't get it because it's a different culture . You'll get used to it in couple of weeks . *I'm not aware of any NRN IDs yet . You can definitely google it. When you're there if you're a US citizen you can go to the embassy in Maharajgunj & register yourself just in case . *To board a plane/booking--I think you need to show a proof of ID like you do here 😎. In fact, I've never flown back there & I didn't do it last time either . Not sure about the prices (foreigner/local) *contact travel agency or go to the local airport counter to purchase your ticket . Advance is recommended because seats fill up pretty much faster these days unlike twenty years ago. *ticket prices are pretty much fixed most of the times. During festival seasons it can go up. It's supply and demand. *You can go to Thailand however you like . It doesn't matter . Just check the visa requirement. Keep in mind that the country isn't what it was twenty years ago. Forget about flaunting , people carry expensive phones and drive fancy cars in the cities or even in country side . Try to keep low profile and you'll be all set . Remember, when you're in Rome act like a ROMAN!!

It's normal to have mixed feelings and you are going via "Reverse Cultural Shock".

Lost in US, Nepali citizenship cha ki nai? cha bhane its good you'd get flights for a cheaper rate.. 1) if you are planning to book a room in the city you need to have an id, For some crazy stupid reasons hoteliers don't allow any Nepalese to book hotels in ktm itself, so they'd take your passport - else if you have contacts, use them :) they'd prolly give you a deal 2. same goes to domestic flights, nepali nagrikta cha bhane you'd prolly save a bunch as the prices are double for foreigners - and especially tyo time ma( oct-Nov) jhanai besi huncha.. 3. OCT-NOV bhaneko touristy season ho, id suggest you to book your flights earlier , flights pauna garho huney chances are pretty high for the last question, you can prolly choose however you wanna travel, just book your tickets prior..

4] FYI - I speak Nepalese fluently. But, I have noticed that whenever I am having a conversation in Nepalese, after a while I start responding in English, without realizing it. फेरी एङ्ग्लिश र नेपाली मिक्स गरेर बोल्दा अल्मलिएर I apology नभन्नु नि | हाहाहाहा अर्को कुरो, २० वर्ष पछि टोइलेट मा तपाइले हातले उ धुनु पर्ने अवस्था आउने छ . एसको बारे मा पनि सोचु होला नि हाहाहाहा चान्स पाएको बेला मा दे हो दे केटाहरु हो
