Happy Nepali Mother’s Day!

Posted on April 27, 2025 | Leave a comment

Today my heart feels a little heavier, missing my beautiful mum who is far away from me. Even though distance separates us, the love and gratitude I have for her only grows stronger with each passing day. Mum, thank you for everything you have done — your love, your sacrifices, your prayers — they have shaped my life in ways words can’t fully express. I wish I could be there to celebrate this special day with you in person.

In Nepal, Mother’s Day is known as “Aama ko Mukh Herne Din”, which translates to “the day to see mother’s face.” It is a day to honour and show appreciation to our mothers. Children visit their mums, offer gifts, sweets, and heartfelt blessings. Traditionally, we prepare a special ceremony called Sagun, where symbolic food items such as yoghurt, fruits, eggs, and sweets are offered to the mother as a way of wishing her good fortune, health, and happiness.

If your mum is nearby, give her a warm hug today. If she’s far away, like mine, take a moment to call her, video chat, or simply send her love across the miles. Our mums deserve to feel our gratitude not just today, but every day.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mothers! You are truly a blessing.

Nepal Bhasa Bites: Lesson 4: Numbers

Posted on April 17, 2025 | Leave a comment

Nepal Bhasa, also known as Newar language, is the mother tongue of the Newar community, the indigenous people of the Kathmandu Valley in Nepal. With its rich literary tradition, unique script, and deep cultural significance, Nepal Bhasa is more than just a language—it’s a living heritage that carries centuries of history, art, and identity. Although it has faced challenges over time, recent efforts have sparked a revival, with younger generations taking pride in learning and preserving it. Whether you’re a language enthusiast, part of the diaspora, or simply curious, exploring Nepal Bhasa opens a beautiful doorway into the vibrant world of Newar culture.

Here is Lesson 4: Numbers
Let’s begin.

If you spot any mistakes, please don’t hesitate to correct me. I greatly value your feedback and suggestions.

Locked Out but Grateful !!!

Posted on April 16, 2025 | Leave a comment

Yesterday after work, I had one of those moments – I locked my car key inside the car. Just when I thought the day was done and I was ready to head home, I found myself standing in the car park feeling helpless. Classic!

But here’s where the relief kicked in – I remembered I had NRMA insurance. Within 20 minutes, they arrived and had my car unlocked in no time. The wave of gratitude I felt was real. I honestly can’t explain the relief when I saw them pull up and handle it all so smoothly.

A big thank you to NRMA – not just for the quick service, but for turning a frustrating situation into a reminder of how important it is to be covered.

So here’s a little nudge from me to you: check your insurance. Make sure you’re covered for the unexpected. Because trust me, it happens to the best of us. And when it does, you’ll be glad you planned ahead.

Came home tired but thankful – and definitely a little more careful!

Too good to Go App : Worth the Surprise!

Posted on April 15, 2025 | 2 comments

I finally gave the @toogoodtogo.au app a try — and I’m so glad I did! It’s an awesome app that connects you with local cafés, bakeries, and restaurants to rescue perfectly good food that would otherwise go to waste. The idea is simple: pay a small price for a “surprise bag”, and get around three times the value in return!

I grabbed a bag from Bakers Delight for just $10, and here’s what we got:

🥐 Spinach & feta Danish
🧀 Cheesymite scroll
🍰 Custard almond teatime loaf
🍫 Choc chip hot cross buns

The total value was over $30, and everything was fresh and delicious. No complaints here — just happy tummies and less food waste! 😋

It’s a fun and affordable way to try something new while doing good for the planet. Highly recommend giving it a go if you haven’t already!
