Dolma's house and the nuns

I am here at Dolma's beautiful haven in the middle of Kathmandu. There are about 15 Tibetan nuns who live here too and they are singing and chanting and playing a drum as I type. They dress like monks and shave their heads. Incense is heavy in the air. The nuns wash my shoes at night while I sleep and serve tea and toast in the morning. Dolma's mother is here to help too and well as Dawa, a girl of about 18 who helps with the household and baby Tenzin. She's beautful and sweet. I will stay here for the next few days and write and read and process all that has happened so far. Which is a LOT!
