CHG-2: Being In Nepal

This handwritten text by Chingaru provides his account of being in Nepal during 1974. (Parts of the text are very similar to one written by Durga (Nepal Impressions (DN-4)). He describes their housing and ours, shopping for foodstuff, and his miscellaneous impressions of the Kathmandu. He also talks about when Jay Narayan, a Maithili speaker, came to stay so he could work with Alice and Jenny in teaching them his language.

Some of the text is narrative though mostly it is descriptive.
