Our heart is broken over the devastation caused by the flash floods in Nepal. 💔
On August 26th, massive flash floods tore through the Trishuli River valley in Nepal’s Rasuwa and Nuwakot districts, near Tibet. The disaster was apparently triggered by a huge glacier collapse and landslide high in the Himalayas, sending an enormous wall of water, ice, and debris crashing down down into the villages below. So many lives have been lost, homes and communities destroyed, and livelihoods swept away in an instant. Hundreds are still missing, and there is no clear end in sight to the search and recovery efforts.
As many of you know, we are leading our Fall trip to Nepal this November, and my heart is even more with the land I grew up in. This trip has always been about connecting with the land, the culture, and the people I love so deeply. Now more than ever, I believe traveling there with open hearts, supporting local communities, and carrying their stories with us matters.
If you’ve been considering joining us, I hope you’ll think about coming along. Your presence and support would mean so much, not just to me, but to a country that could use all the love it can get right now. Please send me a message if you’d like more details, or the day-to-day itinerary.
Sending strength and prayers to everyone affected. 🙏
