A Tihar Sendoff!
Nepal plays host to several festivals. We happened to be lucky enough to be there during two of their major ones: Dashain and Tihar, which take place during almost the entirety of October. This was on our last night of the trek in a village called Phaphlu. Dancers perform in the streets for donations, oftentimes inviting the audience to join in. It really was a spectacular sendoff.
