The Story of My Lost Documents

Today I want to share a personal story - how I lost my important documents and what happened after that.

I still remember it clearly. On 2082/4/8, I was traveling from Teku to Putalisadak by Sayuk Yatayat bus. The bus was crowded, and I was standing. From RNAC stop, 2–3 young boys got on, a bit older than students, and everything seemed fine until Jamal. But by the time we reached Bagbazar, I noticed something strange. They pushed passengers when dropping off, and even at PK College, they did the same. I didn’t realize it then, but when they got off the bus, something was not right.

When I reached Putalisadak, I checked my bag and discovered that my purse was missing. At first, I thought maybe I had left it at home, so I went ahead with my work and visited Abriti Media that day. But later in the evening, when I checked properly at home, I couldn’t find my purse anywhere. That’s when I was sure - it had been stolen.

Inside the purse, I had some very important things:

  • Tourist Guide License (1)

  • Trekking Guide License (1)

  • Blood Donation Card from the Red Cross (I had donated 6 times +)

  • Business cards of Ambassador Himalaya

  • Teacher ID card of NATHM

  • University ID card of NeHCA 

  • 3 bank ATM cards

  • Cash: Rs. 1500

The next day, on 9th Shrawan, I had a university exam, so I couldn’t do much. I did try submitting an online police application, but I didn’t get any response. A week later, I went to Durbarmarg Police Station, but after explaining everything for almost an hour, they told me I should go to Singhadurbar Police Station instead.

Time kept passing, and after about two weeks, I went to Singhadurbar Police Station with my friend Kedar Ji’s help. We submitted a written application, provided all details, and they told me to come back after one week. When I returned, they gave me a report saying, “Your documents and purse were not found.”

After that, I started searching online about what documents are required to reissue my licenses. I also messaged the Tourism Information Office on Facebook Messenger, and they replied the next day with the list of required documents. But due to my college, office, and other work, the days kept slipping by. Soon it was already mid-Bhadra. Then came the movement (Andolan) and public holidays, and before I knew it, Aswin had arrived.

I’m now planning to go to the Kathmandu Tourism Office with all the documents to apply for my new license. In between all this, I also guided seven Japanese students on a sightseeing tour of Kathmandu Durbar Square, using just my Blue Book as proof. and so on for 2025. 

Now, I’m waiting to see what new government rules or procedures will come up. Tomorrow, I’ll finally know what’s next.  On 2082.09.29,(13th Jan 2026)  I received my new license.

Monsoon Trek Diary- Ambassador Himalaya Treks & Expedition

Image
We three from our company and one of our foreign Guest-friend - planned a short Monsoon Trek with overnight stay. Before finalizing the destination, on June 7, the four of us did a bike ride and short hike to Bhunadol, Farping to explore the area. Honestly, the place didn’t match our expectations, but reaching there made us realize how popular and meaningful it is for domestic tourists – a perfect spot for outdoor fun and connecting with nature. Seeing Nepali brothers and sisters enjoying the green hills and fresh air brought immense joy to us – especially as tourism professionals and teachers. We noticed various groups – some students, some couples, some hikers, and even monastery kids – all happily blending with Mother Nature. But along with this joy, came a serious thought – Are we disciplined visitors? Loud music on speakers while hiking, throwing wrappers, bottles, and other waste along the trails – is this how we experience nature? Anyway, we didn’t feel like staying down at the...

Summer Fiesta 2025 : A Memorable Journey to Chitlang with NATHM

Image
  Day 1: The Beginning of the Journey On 2082/5/9 (August 25, 2025), our exciting journey began. A day before, my 6th-semester student Arpan Tiwari had called me:   “Sir, you have to come to Chitlang tomorrow.”  Later that evening, Shubham Poudel Sir (BTTM coordinator of NATHM) also asked me if I was free to join. After checking my schedule, I agreed and confirmed on WhatsApp. The next morning, I reached NATHM at 6:45 AM. Before heading to the office, I had breakfast 'Chana and eggs' at Thapa Dai’s shop . At the Ravichautari, Loknath Tripathi (6th Sem Student) briefed us about the day’s itinerary. Soon after, at 08:30 AM, our hiking began from NATHM. It had been almost a month since I last went hiking, so the fresh trail felt exciting. Our group of ten formed a team, and the crew members led us ahead. I stayed in the middle, connecting both the front and back groups. The hiking trail had changed a lot since I last walked it years ago - now there were proper signboards, s...

BTTM 20th Batch Adventure Tourism

आज २०८२/३/३ गते ,      BTTM 20th ब्याचका विद्यार्थीहरूसँग Adventure Tourism को कक्षा लिन म नाथम गए। एक पटक पछि फर्के हेर्दा मनमा एक छुट्टै अनुभूति भएको थियो - भर्खर नाथम (NATHM)  मा पढाउन सुरु गरेको जस्तो लाग्थ्यो, तर आज सम्म ४ वटा ब्याच पुगि सकेछन् (17th, 18th , 19th र 20th  सबै मा   मिठो सम्झना छ )। समय कति बेला बित्यो, थाहै भएन मलाई। पढाउनु भनेको मेरो लागि ज्ञान बाँड्ने माध्यम मात्र होइन, आत्मासँग जोडिने अनुभव हो - नयाँ पुस्तासँग संवाद गर्ने, सिकाउने र आफैं पनि केही नयाँ सिक्ने अवसर हो। आज मैले कक्षामा जादा म सँग नयाँ सोच लिएर गएकै थिएँ। पहिला जस्तो खाली Laptop and PPT होइन, यो पटक Laptop नबोकेर गएँ Different Mood मा। NATHM  आज मैले एउटा कथा दुवै सेक्सन (B & C) लाई सुनाएँ,  मैले मेरो गुरु प्रभात रिमाल लाई धेरै सम्झेको थिए मेरो ब्याचलर पढाउने गुरु हुनुहुन्छ 🙏।  " Michelangelo र उनको साथी Luca को कथा "   १६औँ शताब्दीको त्यो कथा, जहाँ Michelangelo भन्छन्, " मैले मूर्ति बनाएको होइन, त्यो मूर्ति त ढुंगामै थियो Luca, म त केवल त्...
