Nepal，梦开始的地方{1}

想走尼泊尔，是个偶然的冲动，在2006年底。就象歌里唱的“在路上，用我心灵的呼声...在路上，是我生命的远行”那阵儿，心里的困惑，不安分的躁动，需要借用脚下的路来坚定。在磨房上兜过清迈、吴哥等路线后，喜玛拉雅的雄伟突然跃入眼帘。就这么简单，约定了雪山，约定了尼泊尔。

“去了４天徒步，很过瘾，在阳光下，对着雪山喝奶茶”
“这几天　就是这样”
“走了就吃，吃了就睡，醒了就看雪山”

磨房上的朋友，Lucky Chen，在KMT的网吧悠闲地聊了几句。只几句，令我羡慕ing...

[The Nepali rupee(Rs) is divided into 100 paisa(p). There are coins for denominations of five, 10, 25 and 50 paisa, and for one, two, five and 10 rupees, although as the rupee coins are not in wide circulation and prices are generally rounded to the nearest rupee, you often don't come across any coins at all. This is a great contrast to a time not long ago, when outside the Kathmandu Valley, it was rare to see any paper money. Mounataineering books from the 1950s often comment on the porters whose sole duty was to carry the expedition's money - in cold, hard cash.

Bank notes come in denominations of one, two, five, 10, 20, 25, 50, 100, 500 and 1000 rupees. Away from major centres, changing a Rs 1000 note can be very difficult, so it is always wise to keep a stash of small denomination notes. Even in Kathmandu, many small business - especially rickshaw and taxi drivers - simply don't have sufficient spare money to allow them the luxury of carrying a wad of change. ]

￥ 1 = Rs 9

虽然Lonely Planet上写着1：9，但是Lucky告诉我的汇率是1：8。终于找到机会去体验美国人来中国消费的心情。

喜玛拉雅，请等我安静地靠近你。
