A sudden wave of calmness overcame me. Everything seemed to happen in slow HD cinematic motion – a few thousand feet of pine trees rustling in the wind below, the colourful prayer flags flapping against the blamelessly blue sky, the wind chimes tinkling by the window…
It's just pine trees from the top of the hill right to the bottom.
Sunlight seeping through the pine trees.
Houses far below.
So close we were.
The view the village overlooks. The mass of houses in the far background is Kathmandu.
