Honestly, i made real friends with your team and enjoyed every moment especially with Your brother, Pasang dai and Gokarna and others.

                              Tomorrow i will be bidding goodbye to Nepal by afternoon, and will be back home to Mumbai by night with sweet memories.
                              You do take care and hoping to see you soon either in Kathmandu or in Mumbai soon.
