anything yeah you just okay I just took it okay nice so um tell me what's your favorite thing about Nepal and your least favorite thing about Nepal Nepal like because of nature you know yeah of course yeah I don't think there's something like that I don't like yeah yeah nice good answer it's a very politically correct answer but no you're right like Parker is the place to come if you want to see the real beauty of Nepal Nepal even and uh it's it's becoming also an international tourism destination because of the flights uh the airport opening although the domestic um crash didn't have didn't help but uh so how is business like from from the pandemic is it getting better or did the flight has the flight affected things or small level but like it's okay for now okay and like uh you hoping to get more Chinese tourists Soon Chinese yeah maybe like we don't get much honey because of the pandemic yeah but now now it's it's kind of okay yeah you see lots of people taking these photos you pay oh really they just keep taking yeah I know that trick I've been I've been scammed by that trick so many times they take 100 pictures and then charge you for 100. no like like if you take a single picture like even if you take 100 pictures you can just take oh just what you want yeah okay that's not like in the countries no no in Pakistan where they um they charge you for how many they take so these like all these most of these tourists say are they Nepalese or Indian yeah can you tell very easily a Nepalese person from any Indian person yeah can you tell very easily between India and Nepalese yeah yeah it's very easy yeah it's easy because like you can see you can just differentiate with my looking at them yeah but for I would say like some people I find very easy you can tell about Nepalese if they have like the Asian um Southeast Asian look but some of them do look Indian yeah like I would say you almost look a little bit Indian right [Music] I'll come back for sure although actually this is my we're moving tomorrow to the Village so maybe after poon hill I'll be fine yeah have a good day thank you nice to meet you goodbye doggo okay so I was walking down there he said to go this way so I think we're gonna carry on walking the other way you see like loads of people taking these photos we've got our friend over here how you doing any any customers oh you have
