Nepal was a country I had wanted to visit my entire life.
The mountain culture is one of the most beautiful untouched regions of the
world and I believe that our western culture has much more to learn from the
people in the mountains (who have lived a completely sustainable lifestyle for hundreds
of years) than we have to give to them.
I lived in Nepal teaching English and doing research for 8
months and put together this video while I was there. While this video serves
only has an introduction to the culture documenting a journey through a 24 day
hike in the mountains, it is my hope that I can one day return to explore the
culture in a deeper way. This
video documents the trail of a traveler on the Annapurna Circuit of Nepal and I
published it in order to inspire other people to visit Nepal
My goals as a videographer are to create documentary films
for small international non-profit organizations, providing them with the
opportunity to give them a voice and show how they are making a positive change
in the world. I have two other films that follow those lines documenting a coexistence
project between Israeli and Palestinian Midwives for (Circle of Health International)
as well as the struggle for women’s empowerment in Gulu, Uganda (with the Women’s
global Empowerment fund) My plans in the future are to finish up grad school in
public health and return to Nepal to live and work and learn from the people
there.
