Photo Description:
The picture above is of a 5 Year old girl going to school barefoot, whom I met at Manakamana. When I asked her why she was going to school, she replied that she wanted to become a doctor and serve the people in her village. She always walks an hour to get to school, and after returning home she helps out her mother in the kitchen before sitting down to do her homework.

Thanks for the sensible critique. Me and my neighbor were just preparing to do some research about this. We got a grab a book from our local library but I think I learned more clear from this post. I’m very glad to see such fantastic information being shared freely out there.
I like this post, enjoyed this one thankyou for putting up.
Sad, but not that strange. I got first pair of shoes when I was eight. Bottom line is that she is still happier than many city kids with 20 pair of shoes when they can’t even talk.
omg so cute lets help her in education in nepal
