Wedding in Bakthapur [10:57]
Walking throughout Bakthapur´s narrow streets suddenly there was a wedding celebration: street musicians playing some particular instruments plus some known ones... lots of people surrounding the bride (beautiful) and the groom... a big red tent waiting for all of them, plenty of food and smells...

Turlung Puja in Nepal [13:02]
In the hills of the Lamjung region of Nepal is a village called Turlung. Because of a wonderful twist of fate I arrived in Turlung well ahead of my humanitarian group from Singular Humanitarian experience. We were to help paint a school later that day, but with my early arrival I explored other parts of the village and was invited to watch and photograph a puja ceremony for a man who had passed away a year before. The village lama conducts the ceremony with participation of the villagers including the sisters of the man being honored.(Sorry for some shaky footage as I lost my balance a couple of times). Enjoy!
