Budapest to Dubai, UAE (Wizz Air)
Dubai to Kathmandu, Nepal (Fly Dubai)
From Kathmandu to Pokhara (Buddha Air) was the best option because of our timeline. We had to arrive in Pohara 4th of September. Actually, we started our journey on the 2nd of Sept, but with these flight changes, we had a huge transfer time gap in Dubai. We just arrived in Nepal 3rd of Sept and both flights took around 10 hours for us, but the whole travel around 24 hours in the end.
Wizzair costs around 250 USD going and coming for me, FlyDubai around 500 USD, and Buddha Air 160 USD. So the travel total is around 1000 USD.
The USD was around 400 HUF when we left the country, but when we arrived 440 HUF. So our money day by day also in Nepali rupees worth less by the time.
Insurance:
I wanted normal-priced and valued insurance, however, Nepal is not the best place to have any kind of problem. But I did not overreact, because I had experienced my mom being an insurance specialist so we made a middle valued and middle-priced traveling insurance for 1 month.
It costs 150 USD.
Extra 120 USD – TIFUS and HEPA A vaccination.
TTC:
Our TTC was with accommodation, we stayed in a Hotel Tulsi (Pokhara) TTC started with a fire ceremony (Puja for purification, and healing) 4th of September and we finished 28th in the morning with our final closing ceremony.
Fire ceremony purifies emotions, burns up unresolved conflict and worries, and leaves us feeling lighter, free, and more open inside. As we focus on letting go, the fire dissolves our tensions leaving only Vibhuti, or Sacred Ash, behind.
Vedic Fire Ceremony
So about TTC, 250 USD was the deposit. and then we paid there 1350 USD. So a total of 1600 USD with accommodation and 2 times food (breakfast and lunch) for 28 nights.
