Has anyone been to Jhamiskhal,Patan, in Nepal?

Question

I am preparing to leave the United States to do some volunteer work in India .I am curious to know if there is still alot of rebels fighting in this region I am going to .Please give me any good advice that may help on my trip.

Answer 1

I travelled through Nepal for three months while there were a few problems there in 2002/2003. The US and UK governments were warning against travelling there.

I can tell you that the Nepalese are very friendly and the rebels generally leave you alone. The only problem you may have, but I doubt unless you are in the hills of Nepal, is that you may have an armed group ask you for a "donation" this happened to me twice in three months, but both times an R100 note was enough for a free pass into the area.

Hope that helps

Answer 2

First of all,be clear that India and nepal are two different countries.

Where are you going? Nepal or India?

You should not worry about the rebels if you are going to stay at Jhamsikhel,patan,Nepal.
