Preparations for this trip begin early as passports are obtained, finances and schedules reviewed and arranged. Vaccinations are also needed and already the learning and surprisingly, encouragement begins. Did you know there are travel clinics, knowledgeable about what medical precautions are needed for the countries you are visiting? The nurse administering the vaccines had children who had also spent time in Nepal. Her kind words were "They will be happy to have you come, but you will be just as much, if not more, blessed by the experience than they are".
