    This website is very good for providing a basic overview of the inoculations needed before traveling to other countries. It has countries other than Nepal, and contains basic vaccines, preventive measures, medical supplies and over-the-counter medications that are recommended by the government for travel to Nepal.

In addition, they have student writings about travels in particular places, which is useful.

    This cookbook contains many wonderful recipes, as well as commentary on Nepali life and eating culture. It was essential for me upon arriving home from Nepal, as I wanted to cook the foods I had been eating over there but did not having many recipes. It also translates many common ingredient names from Nepali into English, which was very helpful.

    This site provides lots of information about Nepali culture and history, while also giving you travel options. It also gives you some helpful phrases in Nepali, such as asking directions or words relating to food. It lists some sacred sites in the Kathmandu valley, which is useful for me because that is where I will be staying

    A wonderful monastery located in the Kathmandu valley of Nepal. Holds retreats for people of all ethnicities and educates many local boys to be monks as well. I participated in an 8 day retreat there and learned a lot about the tenants of Buddhism from a English-speaking tibetan monk.

    A wonderful organization that seeks to educate tourists about the dangers of volunteering in a foreign country. The primary mission of NGN is to return trafficked 'orphans' to their families, and expose the corruption around many so-called 'orphanages'. This was an eye-opening lesson for me, and one I hope to spread as far as I can.

    This is the website for the program I travelled to Nepal with. Not only was it an incredible experience, it gave me so many resources if I ever want to go back to Nepal. It even gave me resources for making a difference from home, and I would absolutely recommend it to anybody who is considering going abroad.

    We stayed here for a week and volunteered. The atmosphere was wonderful, the people were amazing, and the food was the best I had in Nepal. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who is looking to volunteer in Nepal as an ethical solution to volunteering in orphanages, which are often corrupt.

    This book was a great way to get excited for trekking, and to explore how Buddhism can be integrated into everyday life. I was staying in Nepal on the same dates as some of the entries were written, so it was very cool to be reading it day by day. Also, it explored aspects of Nepali culture in the 70's that were radically different now, and it was quite cool to see the overlap.
