What was supposed to be a normal hike ended up being a surreal experience.

In the alleyways of Patan, the houses are pressed against each other like books on a bookshelf. Things keep breaking and stories keep spilling.

The pandemic and the subsequent lockdowns had left Bista depressed, disoriented, and stressed.

After his wife’s death, Tirtha refused to remarry and decided to raise his young children on his own.

What started out as a friendship between Raman and Nita quickly turned into love.

The streets are full of mad dogs and smothering dandelions, blood-thirsty coyotes and lecherous humans-turned-monsters.

From the window seat of her school bus, Ashika watched the world pass by.

How a young girl fought against all odds to reach a position to help others like her.

Like everyone else, Menuka wanted to lead a happy life but fate had different plans for her.

Ganesh was well aware of his parents’ financial state and knew that it was his responsibility to not give them extra burden.

Inside the dingy room of an old single-storeyed house, Shakuntala managed to combat the bone-chilling cold with a meagre fire.

The sun was shining, fresh wind was blowing, the sky was a serene blue but in Ghanashyam Bista’s heart, dark clouds hung.

Every moment you breathe is worth celebrating. Life is beautiful even when it is bleak.
