What's life like in the Himalayas? How do the Nepali people live? Where does one start when planning a trip to the Buddha's birthplace?

In this episode, we look at Nepal through the eyes of a man named Mr. Shiva (pronounced "see-buh"). He's a mountain guide, a father, a curious adventurer, an eldest son with never-ending responsibilities, and we'll find that his past is about as inspiring as they come.
