A Beard in Nepal #3
A Beard In Nepal 3: Travels with the Beard in Nepal, Bhutan and India
Tod and Fiona visit Nepal for a third time, and meet up again with their friends who live in the small, isolated village of Salle, high up in the remote Everest Region of the country.
Although this is the third book in the series, the reader does not have to have read the first two books in order to follow and enjoy the account and descriptions of this visit.
It is an emotional and highly enjoyable trip, despite the presence of a massive spider and unspecified rodent in their room, and the couple catch up with Kalyani and her family, Molly, the village children, and Lucky the cockerel.
This time Tod and Fiona also visit the tiny country of Bhutan, and climb up to the spectacularly beautiful Tiger's Nest Monastery, 10,000ft up in the Himalayas.
Following a nerve jangling, rip roaring drive through part of India, they spend time in Darjeeling, and ride on the famous Darjeeling Himalayan Railway - the Toy Train.
Then it's a twenty hour, non stop drive back through India, across Nepal, and up into the mountains at night, driving through blazing forests, until they reach Kathmandu again.
A fast moving, humorous read, recommended not only for the hardened, intrepid traveler, but for the armchair variety too.

About the author
Fiona Roberts
13 books26 followersI come from a family of clairvoyants and sailors, so I suppose it's no surprise that I have travelled quite a bit, nor that I now work as a Medium/psychic.
I lived 10 years in Paris early on, teaching English - enjoyed every moment of it! I began writing then.
I ran an agency promoting the work of mediums, psychics and clairvoyants when I got back to England.
In 2009 Tod (my lovely husband) and I spent 5 months in a remote village in the Himalayas of Nepal teaching English. That was an eye opening life changer!
We have been back twice, and plan to go again soon.
Tod and I have allotments and grow fruit and vegetables, and we have a flock of ex battery chickens, and a fantastic rescue dog called Buzz.
Oh, and I spend quite a lot of time writing!
