Village life in NEPAL

I’ll be sharing my experience of spending time with the locals in one of the most remote and breathtakingly beautiful regions in the world. For four days, I lived with the Himalayan people, learned about their culture, and explored the stunning landscapes that surrounded us. You’ll see firsthand how these incredible people live their daily lives and how they have adapted to their unique environment. I’ll also be sharing some of their traditional recipes and customs, so you can get a taste of their rich culture.

Sweet you don’t need to put sugar on a doughnut and it still tastes really good and it’s warm it’s like a it’s like a croissant with a little bit of flavor mhm and then we have the Special Egg McMuffin from McDonald’s in Nepal I’m going to try one hit and see

How it is pretty simple bread and eggs nothing special the flavor is different I don’t know why I think it’s the eggs but it’s really really it’s actually really good yeah listen what I’ve learned from coming out here there’s a really big difference when it comes to food out

Here this is the straight real food not processed there’s no extra added preservatives this is real food in the mountains and there’s an ant on my camera so that means I better let you all go because I don’t want to ruin this beautiful breakfast in the

Morning all right now it’s time to milk Buffalo and they’re going to kick you in the face which I’m not ready for we’re about to milk a buffalo this going to be way too funny I’ve never milked a buffalo in my life so they actually told us to be up

Insane there you Go very interesting very very interesting I’ve never done this before this is the first this is the most exciting thing I’ve ever seen another first finish I don’t know what I got my myself into all right let’s do it oh that’s weird yeah Right okay that is so weird dude like this does not feel right I don’t mess with buffalos but this is the first time I’ve ever had it and maybe I’m squeezing it too hard oh oh you ready you ready I was going to put it in my mouth just kidding Tom Green It

Center Center ah Center oh okay you’re good there you go yo the tail went straight in my mouth that was awesome well I learned look at the pro I got it I seriously got it that is that is the weirdest feeling feels like rubber like yeah it just

Feels feels different we are doing a tour but watch out for the here we go and here are the Bulls so the buffal buffal that is enough so the buffal are only for the milk okay and the O are to plow the land like you saw got because buffalo in the southern part

Of Nepal the Buffalo also plow the land but over here our teres are not that big gotcha so it has to be the small animal got and strong animals so the ox is the ox oh Buffalo you’re big so the Buffalo is for the milk and the comp

Gotcha okay wow you’re a big boy can we get up here we got more goat that’s what I’m saying Namaste Namaste smells very nice over here ready yeah wow can you see the Cobra over there the snake yeah oh where oh that’s not real I don’t see a cobra you can see

The Cobra I see it where the yeah the white on the top oh it literally looks like one holy crap it is but it’s not a real one oh oh okay now I see it oh okay there we go I couldn’t see it no in this culture uh Cobra the

Snake is very special okay very very very special so every year there’s one day we uh we pray for the Cobra that is in August okay come here they should pray for me because I wouldn’t mess with the Cobra I would nope the picture of the Cobra on the front door oh

Wow picture of the Cobra on the front door what is the meaning of it the the belief is the Cobra the goddess snake going to protect the house and the village so I told you before yesterday the people here we are living here for 800 years now okay and 11 generation and

In the 800 years and 11 generation everybody came to this and we had to pray for the Cobra interesting wow there is two things uh Nepal is you know multi- religious country yeah many different religion here if you want to find um if you want to find let’s say

You go to a a village where there is uh Islam where there is Buddhism and the Hinduism or Christianity and you want to find the house belongs to Hindu person there’s two way to find out if they are Hindu or not the one thing is just go to

Their house and on the front yard look at this oh this T the B tree basil is the one of the representation of the god Vishnu okay so every morning they come here one of the person in the house and with the First Sunlight which is you

Know Sunrise they power the water to the Basel tree the representation of the god Vish and they change the water here and the flowers like mother my mother did and give it to you right okay so this is the way to find out if someone is a Hindu or not okay I

Think I saw the second one is the picture of the gotcha on the front door okay so those are the two signs of knowing right away yeah if they are Hindu or not and if you want to find if someone is a Buddhist or not then go to the house and every

Buddhist they have a big flag of the Buddhism the Buddhist flags with the five different color gotcha got it how you protect the corn this this is on the side okay this look look at this okay so this you have to take it out okay you know this this goes to the

Animal okay this also goes to the animal but you have to keep safe to protect you know so it takes few piece of from this side and how to how to hang uh and she make it like this got it yeah you know how to make this no no we would

Lot cooler over here because it’s mud that’s why okay so you know many years ago uh we used to cook inside the house okay and later on the research shows that when the people are cooking inside the house their eyes are not that good you know after a few years years then

Nepal government encouraged the people to have a kitchen the fire kitchen outside of the house so that is the reason now you can see everyone they have a fire kitchen outside of the house and look at this over here this rocks uh there Woods all you know all black like

This because of the smoke before that’s crazy and the belief is if the smoke is with the you know um over here then your house become more stronger Goa because no any insect can you know no goes that’s insane it’s barely any it’s crazy oh they have a ladder to go

Kobe’s about to sh Show us all his positions that’s why he’s so flexible and look at that how beautiful how do you wake up to that it’s beautiful it’s gorgeous this is the true beauty of Nepal wow that is the beauty of Nepal ladies and gentlemen that’s where the waterfall

Was so that’s probably where I’m going to probably swim but naked soon but it goes all the way back here I wonder how high it goes but it’s so beautiful very cloudy this is their only Temple kind of like whsh right or okay most of the time

The temples of the Hindu people are red red so this Temple is alo alo what what do you think what is the reason that’s a good question H is it because of a mood a mood like mellow no way why is it yellow okay so in this

Culture the red is the color of Life color of is consider is the most vibrant color in a Hindu culture okay so when you think about the flower what color do you come to your mind red I’m sure the white color doesn’t come like the tea

For you no no no no no no okay so in this culture red is the color of life but at the same time okay um the white is the color of the Widow the Widow oh okay any culture when someone is getting married they wear white dress correct in

This culture if someone is a widow they wear the white dress they’re not allowed to wear the red nowadays they do you know it doesn’t matter any but in The Villages where they believe about the religion and the culture they wear the white dresses not the red like the

Yellow dresses like the green dress or the Blue Dress okay inter this is the Temple of the ancestors the Temple of the dead people so it cannot be red it can be any other color but it cannot be red this is the region this is is the El Temple and

It’s very rare to see so every 5 years we come here to pray my mother comes here uh every day to pray but like all the community our clan they come here every 5 years to pray and that time we Slaughter the goat every every family

They have to come with the male goat not the female one the slaughter oh wow gotcha so over here come I’ll see what do you think which one is the god who is a god there there is no God uh the flowers okay next to the flower

There’s few rocks yeah small rocks yeah they are the god oh so in this culture the God has to have some kind of representation so the dead people they didn’t have a you know representation so like my grandfather died someone else grandfather died many years ago and we

Are here for 800 years many people died so this is the you know the temple for everyone de people so you cannot have a particular picture of them or the statue of them so it has to have some kind of representation and there’s Ro you can see small one there so the most

Representation is this one this one over here every 5 year we come here to slaughter the good and keep a blood over here gotcha the Tre they’re about to make some pot pie they’re about to make some berry pie berry pie we’re picking up some some berries do some beneficial

Brother you are too tall I am I’m trying to figure out which one you told me which tree I don’t know which tree there you go oh oh there we go oops all right they’re very soft it’s got to be careful more softer than the nipples of

The Buffalo exactly more softer than a Momo no of the Buffalo are very soft nipples of the Buffalo was weird weird Robin didn’t feel the nipples of the Buffalo but I felt nipples of cows this yeah but it’s a different kind of nipple not going to be that just felt

Weird to me here goes the butter 3 4 days okay okay and then after we collect the milk and that is called card card so you put all the card here and mix the water okay and now uh together we hold on it and it spins left and right in
