Sushant KC Live in Sydney 🎶

It had been such a long time since hubby and I went to a concert together, so when we got the chance to see Sushant KC live in Sydney, we were both really looking forward to a night of music, just the two of us.

Sushant KC’s Sydney concert was held at The Crescent in Parramatta Park as part of his Pahuna Australia Tour. It was an open-air concert, which sounded lovely when we first planned it – music, a Sydney evening and an outdoor setting. But on the day, I started getting a little nervous about the weather. It had rained earlier in the afternoon, and I kept wondering whether the evening was going to turn into one of those nights where you spend more time worrying about the weather than enjoying the concert! 😄

Thankfully, my worries didn’t last long.

Once we arrived and the atmosphere started building, everything felt different. There was such a lovely energy in the crowd, with so many Nepali faces, familiar songs and people excited to see Sushant perform live. After spending so much time in our usual family routine, it was actually really nice to step out with hubby, enjoy some music and simply have a fun night together.

And Sushant really delivered.

I thought he was a very good live performer. His stage presence was strong, he connected well with the audience and you could feel the crowd getting more involved as the night went on. There is something special about hearing Nepali songs live, surrounded by people who know the words, sing along and share that same connection to the music. ❤️

I particularly enjoyed the way the concert brought together the music and the crowd. It wasn’t just about standing there and listening — people were singing, dancing, taking photos and enjoying the moment. For me, that was probably one of the nicest parts of the whole evening.

Of course, the outdoor venue did make me think about one thing!

As beautiful as an open-air concert can be, I think I would personally choose an indoor venue next time. 😄 You just never know what Sydney weather is going to do. One minute you’re worried about rain, then you’re thinking about the heat, and then you’re wondering if you brought enough layers for later in the evening!

An indoor venue would definitely make it easier to relax and enjoy the music without constantly thinking about whether the weather is going to cooperate.

But having said that, the weather didn’t take away from what turned out to be a really enjoyable night. In fact, I think the little bit of uncertainty beforehand made us appreciate the evening even more.

It was also nice to have some couple time. With work, kids, family and everything else that fills our days, we don’t always get the chance to go out together and enjoy a concert like this. So standing there next to hubby, listening to Nepali music and enjoying the atmosphere felt like one of those simple moments that you realise you’ve been missing.

Sushant was great, the crowd was full of energy and the whole evening gave us some lovely memories to take home.

Would I choose an outdoor concert again? Maybe… depending on the weather forecast! 😂

But would I go see Sushant KC perform live again? Absolutely. He was a good performer with great stage presence and it was wonderful to see a Nepali artist bringing so much energy to the Sydney stage.

Sometimes it’s not just about the concert itself. It’s about getting dressed up, heading out together, singing along to songs you know, being surrounded by your community and creating a memory with the person sitting beside you.

And after a long time, it was really nice to have one of those nights with my hubby. ❤️🎶

Celebrating Teej with Friends – A Festival of Food, Dance, and Fun

This year’s Teej celebrations were such a beautiful surprise for me! 🌸✨

I ended up joining so many different Teej Ko Daar gatherings with different groups of friends, and each one had its own unique charm. There was endless food (seriously, the feasting never stopped), lots of laughter, hours of dancing, and of course—plenty of TikToks being made along the way. It was festive, colourful, and full of energy from start to finish.

What made it even more meaningful is that I’m Newar, and I didn’t really grow up celebrating Teej in the traditional way. But because of my friends, I was able to immerse myself in the joy of the festival this year—and I absolutely loved every part of it! Sometimes, it’s the people around you who make a festival special, and that’s exactly how it felt.

From finding outfit inspiration online, to getting dressed up in gorgeous festive looks, to sharing meals and dancing until we were all out of breath—the celebrations were about so much more than just tradition. They were about togetherness, joy, and creating memories that will stick with me for years.

Teej this year wasn’t just about celebrating—it was about connection, culture, and pure fun.

I’m so grateful to my friends for including me in their traditions and making me feel part of something bigger. Can’t wait to do it all over again next year! 💃

Why Every Mum Needs a Girls’ Getaway

Just got back from the most amazing girls’ trip to Cairns, and wow—I didn’t realise how much I needed that break until I was in it.

We booked a lovely hotel right near the water, the kind where you wake up to palm trees and sunshine pouring through the curtains. We planned a few excursions— just enough to feel like we were doing something special. Think reef tours, beach strolls, cocktails by the pool… the good stuff.

Coming from soggy, cold Sydney, stepping into Cairns’ warm tropical weather felt like heaven. No jumpers, no rain, just that beautiful Far North Queensland sunshine that instantly lifts your mood. We were living in our swimmers and sundresses, and honestly, I didn’t miss the layers one bit.

But the best part? The company. There’s something so special about being with your girls—no pressure, no roles to play, just open chats and loads of laughs. We talked about everything and nothing, stayed up too late, danced like no one was watching, and just enjoyed being ourselves. It’s amazing how much lighter you feel when you’re surrounded by people who really get you.

And that’s why I’ll never stop saying how important these little escapes are. Life is busy, and as mums, partners, workers—we’re always doing something for someone else. But there’s real magic in stepping away for a bit and just being you.

If you’ve been thinking about planning a girls’ trip—do it. Don’t overthink it. You don’t need a massive budget or a long itinerary. Just pick a place, gather your favourite people, and go. The laughs, the chats, the memories—it’s all so worth it.

To my beautiful girls, thank you for being exactly what I needed. My heart feels full, my spirit feels light, and I already can’t wait for the next one. 💛🌴🍹

Sharing One of My Favourite Nepal Bhasa Songs

I hope you all enjoy listening to Makha Twa Ya Gwa, one of the popular and cherished songs in the Nepal Bhasa (Newar) community. This song beautifully captures the essence of Newar culture and tradition, showcasing the depth of the language and the emotions tied to it.

The song is filled with poetic lyrics that speak to the heart and soul, and it has a timeless quality that resonates with listeners of all ages. The rich, melodic tunes paired with the thoughtful lyrics make it a standout in Nepal Bhasa music.

The song is performed by the talented Roj Man Maharjan and Nisha Deshar, whose voice and artistry bring the song to life. With their unique style and powerful delivery, they have made a significant impact on Nepal Bhasa music and have helped keep the tradition alive for newer generations.

Whether you’re a fan of Nepal Bhasa music or are new to it, Makha Twa Ya Gwa is a song you’ll definitely want to listen to. The beauty of the song, paired with its cultural significance, makes it one of my all-time favourites.

Enjoy, and let the melody transport you to the heart of Newar culture! Here’s the translation of the song in Nepali, so you can appreciate the meaning behind the beautiful words:
