On the Street of Kathmandu, by Ashik Masud

I always feel excited whenever I see photographs from Nepal. Their beautiful landscape and colorful cultures always inspire me to visit this county, at least once in my life. Then finally I went there few years ago with some of my friends. On the street of Kathmandu I saw this man, passing by me. He was carrying something in his back and watching me when I would take his picture. They may be poor, but they are so friendly and always talk with smile.
