The small, dirty and winding streets feel like a maze, awaiting your exploration. There’s something truly captivating about this ancient city, spirit and culture are very much intertwined — there is a hum and a buzz present, a pulse of life that makes you feel alive, as if you too are breathing with the city. 


The old very much still exists, and it’s charm has not been taken over or assimilated with that of modernity — it feels deeply rooted in its ways, and the ways of it’s people. This city holds its cultural essence, and exudes it — steadfast and proud.

The temples never closing — always active, always inviting if you will to convene with the divine, if you are called into prayer. 


Yet, simply walking the streets of Kathmandu feels like prayer, as the peoples connection to their cultural ways is so engrained — it is expressed absolutely everywhere, on every corner, at every opportunity. 


You can’t help but feel it ever so viscerally throughout your entire being — this connection, the deep reverence to something greater than your own singular existence — and the utterance to the great laws of the universe, the powers that both behold and simultaneously bewilder.

I acknowledge the Arrente People as the traditional custodians of the lands where I live, learn and work.

I honour and pay my respects to elders past, present and emerging - holding in deep reverence their continued connection to the land, waters and community. 

 

I acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded. 

AUSTRALIA WAS AND ALWAYS WILL BE ABORIGINAL LAND.
