Clintons in Nepal
About Us
Our names are Bob and Bobbie Clinton. We're from the midwest in the USA. Bob was a public school district superintendent in Wisconsin until July 31, 1999. Bobbie had her own home-based business. Currently we're living in Kathmandu (Patan), Nepal. We're studying the Nepali language and culture. We hope to be able to use our education and skills to help the poor of Nepal have a better future.
UPDATE
Bob's is continuing to study Nepali with the help of tutors at L.O.P. He'll begin studying at Tribhuvan University in July. Bobbie has been studying with the help of a language tutor who comes to our home three days a week. Nepali is much easier than Chinese to learn since it doesn't have tones and it has an alphabet. We're both learning to speak and as well as write/read. We're better at sounding out written words than knowing their meanings. Our vocabulary continues to expand daily. We've been exposed to four verb tenses, which we're trying to learn, and can now use 13 different sentence structures.
We'll be enjoyed a visit from Bob's brother, Tom, a few days before Christmas. He'll returned to the states on Dec. 20. We'll showed him around Patan, Kathmandu and Pokhara and introduced him to our many new friends.

Nepal - Religion dominates life
Your first impressions of Nepal might leave you speechless: the abundance of temples, monasteries, and other religious structures, the hustle-bustle in the streets around Durbar Marg in Kathmandu, the number of people and animals shovelling and squeezing through narrow lanes …
Start slowly! You cannot expect to comprehend a development of hundreds of years, evident in different ethnic groups and religions, that are most virulent in a country bordering India, China and Tibet, within just a few days.
Let one of my local guides help you to dissolve this confusion. Start off in Kathmandu's Durbar Marg and listen to the guide's explanations. Or you begin at the Old Royal Palace , where a statue of Hanuman, the monkey god, is guarding the entrance. You will find Hanuman statues guarding many important entrances during you visit in Nepal.
Around 20 or more Temples and religious structures are waiting for you only in this neighbourhood. Most vividly I remember the Kumari Bahal , a place where the Living Goddess resides. Learn more about this custom and the

ROWEN AN E-MAIL Hi, my name is Rowen Sandel and for the past three years I have been teaching third grade at Highland Elementary School in Oakland, California where I'm better known as Mr.Rowen. On September 1st I began a ten month trip that will bring me to ten countries as I literally go around the world. I plan to visit Norway, Italy, Nepal China Vietnam , Cambodia, Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, and Tonga before returning to the U.S. in early June of 2001. Over the last three years I have had many wonderful students, some of whose families are from Cambodia, Tonga, Vietnam, and Laos and one of the inspirations for this trip came from my desire to visit these countries. I also wanted to visit other places and visit other friends around the world. This website is an opportunity for the children of Highland to see images and learn stories and information about where they or their classmates come from. But it is not just for my past students, students of Highland, or people whose families are from a country I'm visiting. This site is for anyone, child or adult, who wishes to see new things, think about new ideas, and learn about things they could have only imagined before. It is for anyone who is a life-long-learner and wishes to experience the larger world we live in.

    Nepal - Culture
    By Ekaterina Zhdanova-Redman The culture of Nepal is truly unique. Nowhere on earth can you find a way of life like in Nepal. This is partly because of Nepal's geography and partly because of its age. Nepal has been an organized society for at least 1,500 years, and people have been living in Nepal's Kathmandu Valley for another 2,000 years. Nepal's location between northeast India and southwest China puts it in the middle of an important Asian trade route. Both of these reasons helped shape modern Nepalese culture.
    A critical part of Nepalese life is religion, and most in Nepal practice Hinduism. Another big portion of the Nepalese are Buddhists. Hinduism is said to be the oldest religion on earth, and it's a fairly complex religion. Hinduism dates back to at least 1500 BC, where it found its beginning in the Indus River valley in northern India and nearby Pakistan.
    Hinduism is different from many other religions for many reasons. One is because Hindu doesn't recognize one founder of their religion, as Christians do with Christ or Muslims do with Muhammad. Hindus also don't have one sacred book of teachings as other religions do. Hindus believe in the phrase "all rivers lead to one ocean," meaning that God accepts all worshipers, regardless of what religion they belong to. Because of this, Hindus don't try to convert others to Hinduism.

    Andal
    An imaginary world
    Andal is an imaginary world I've been working on since I was about twelve. That means for close on twenty years. I've written a slew of stories set in Andal (all in Dutch), a novel, and another novel I should be working on right now. I've also hosted role-playing adventures in this setting, but the primary function of Andal is to serve as a vehicle for my writing, sketching, sculpting and composition urges. As far as imaginary worlds go, Andal is quite unusual. It is not Medieval England with unfamiliar names, nor another version of Middle Earth. It isn't Greece in Indonesia, like Gehennum, nor Alexandria in Nehwon. Nor is it post-apocalyps, pre-civilistation or alternate history. In fact, I'd have a hard time characterizing Andal in terms of familiar cultures. There's something of Song China in it, and traces of Nepal under the Nevari Malla kings. Years after I had created the words Andal, Charya (Dutch spelling: Charia), Hanudan and others, when I started studying Sanskrit, Pali, Nepali and Classical Tibetan, I discovered that most of these words have a very apt meaning in one or another of the languages of the Indian sub-continent. Andal is a

    Nepal - History
    By Ekaterina Zhdanova-Redman Nepal is one of the oldest kingdoms on earth. Its history is rooted in its location between two influential countriesIndia and China. The influence of these countries, and that of Nepal's Asian and Middle Eastern neighbors, has helped to shape Nepal's cultural, political, and religious life. In fact, one of the region's most influential leaders was born in Nepal.
    For most of Nepal's history, the Kathmandu valley has been the cultural and political center of Nepal. Its fertile soil made it good for farming, so this land has been populated since Nepal's earliest days. The valley's location along a trans-Himalayan trade route brought some wealth and much cultural influence to the area.
    Among some of the early inhabitants of Nepal were the Tarai, who primarily lived in eastern Nepal. A Tarai prince born in 563 BC would ultimately leave his princely duties behind and become a god, quite literally. This prince's name was Siddhartha Gautama. Gautama gave up chasing after worldly possessions to search for spiritual truth. In doing so, he gained the name "The Enlightened One," or Buddha. Buddha, as you can probably guess, is the head of the Buddhist religion. Buddhism was the primary religion of Nepal for hundreds of years, until around 200 AD.

    Nepal Activities for Grades 10 - 12
    What is Culture, Anyway?
    Purpose:
    To apply the concept of culture to the country of Nepal. Materials:
  • Reading: What is Culure, Anyway?"
  • Worksheet: "Vocabulary Check" Background:
    In the reading "What Is Culture, Anyway?" author Jay Bonstingl emphasizes the need to view culture as a system of related parts. He also stresses the role that context plays in giving meaning to individual aspects of a culture (i.e., its "culture traits"). For example, for most westerners the swastika is a strong symbol of hate and violence. For those in Nepal and other parts of the world, however, it represents well-being and good fortune. In fact, according to the Encyclopaedia Britannica (15th Edition), the word swastika actually comes from the Sanskrit svastika which means "conducive to well being." Cultural context does indeed determine the meaning of culture traits. Activities:
  • Emphasize the concept of a system by having students try to write after taping their thumbs to the palms of their hands. Discuss the inter-connectedness of a system's parts and the effect on the whole when one part is changed. Have students give examples of systems they know. Add the word "culture" to the list. Ask students for examples of parts of the system of culture. (You may wish to refer to the infamous soda bottle in the movie The Gods Must Be Crazy when talking about the effects of changing one part of a culture.)
  • As a class have students define the word "culture." Modify the definition after they have had a chance to read "What Is Culture, Anyway?" and "On a Personal Note."

    Nepal is known as the abode of the gods. For many years a secret, unknown country, it was, in the 1950s, faced with making a leap from the 11th century to modern times. Visited first by mountaineers and trekkers, it later became the haunt of hippies. In 1989, restrictions barring several areas to tourists were lifted.
    The Nepalese Government has set aside more than 35 per cent of the total area of the country as natural sanctuaries. There are now nine National Parks and three wildlife reserves, located both in the mountainous zones as well as in the tropical plains. The Terai lowlands in the south form the richest habitat in the country. Five protected areas are located in the region and many species of wildlife, including the rare Royal Bengal tiger and leopard, can be observed.
