Another stint in Nepal - The Himalaya

I first visited Nepal in 1975 when I worked for the International Red Cross, supporting the Nepal Red Cross conducting a national disaster preparedness programme.


Some months after the massive earthquake struck Nepal on April 25 2015, I returned to Nepal to work again. Here are some of the photos I have taken.

Do watch winders actually wind rolex watch winder price up a watch?
There is a common misconception that a watch winder will wind a watch. This is not true. A watch winder will keep the watch wound at the level the mainspring was wound at when it was placed in the winder. Normally, an unwound watch will need about 30-40 manual winds to fully wind the mainspring. During the day, depending on how much movement and activity there has been, the watch should generally stay wound and at optimal performance. A watch winder will keep the watch operating at that level. Every now and again, the watch will benefit from a few extra winds of watch winder with storage the crown.

Hey there, Author!

I just finished reading your article, and I couldn't resist leaving a comment. First off, kudos to you for such an engaging piece. Your writing style is incredibly relatable, and it feels like I'm having a conversation with a friend rather than reading a blog post. Your topic about sustainable living hit home for me because it's something I've been trying to be more mindful of lately. Your insights on eco-friendly swaps and easy-to-implement changes were both practical and inspiring. I'm definitely going to give those reusable produce bags a try!

But what I loved most was how you shared your personal experiences and challenges on this journey towards sustainability. It made me realize that I'm not alone in this and that we all stumble and learn along the way. Your honesty is refreshing, and it motivates me to keep going even when I have those slip-ups. Thanks for being so real, and I can't wait to read more from you. Keep up the fantastic work! 😊

By the way, the way you wrapped up your article with that beautiful quote about the planet really tugged at my heartstrings. It's a powerful reminder of why we should all be doing our part. Reading your article was like a wake-up call, and I'm excited to start making more eco-conscious choices. Thanks again for sharing your wisdom, and I'm looking forward to your next piece. Cheers! 🌿🌎https://certifiedtranslationservicesusa.com/
