Put The 'Grrrrrrr' in Swinger (Last Resort, Nepal)

April 10th, 2010 - I cannot think of a better way to conclude my Nepali extravaganza than by flinging myself off a bridge.....twice. First was a bungy followed by a canyon swing, brought to you by the Last Resort. It was radical, bra. You can see by the video that I really crushed that s#$t!!

After my adrenaline rush I passed my time relaxing at the resort......which was lovely. I even made some new friends, four medical students from the UK (three females, one male). They were taking a break from their three week surgical internship in Nepal. We got along well and they appeared to appreciate my brand of potent sarcasm. Either that or they were merely tolerating me, found me annoying, and are discussing how much of a D-bag I am at this very moment. Hard to tell. 

We laughed. We cried. Emotions ran deep. We watched Harry Potter  in High Def Helium (there was an issue with the DVD player's audio) and had long thoughtful discussions on a myriad of topics where I acquired new vocab words and phrases like 'crease', 'thrush', 'the squirts' and 'D-bag'. I met a man with three first names: Micheal Paul John. I was fortunate enough to have my five year plan laid out for me which will culminate in my adoption of a 'everything is beautiful just lay back and enjoy no need to get angry' attitude, the sporting of dreadlocks, the wearing of robes, and the tattooing of the word 'LOVE' and its translation into as many languages as will fit on my back. The 'new' Rich is coming. Brace yourself.
