God's plan

by Pratika Dahal (India)

A leap into the unknown Nepal

I was sleeping deeply on that day when my mom and dad were leaving for their next trek. They had plan their trek with their friends. Unfortunately! Their friend had an accident on the same day due to which they had to cancel the trip. My parents were so much excited about the trek to pachpokhari lake situated in Shindhupalchok district at the height of 4400m from sea level. It was around 5 am when I was sleeping deeply, suddenly I woke up with the sound"pratika wake up and pack your bags and come with us right now".I was so confused at that time,I woke up and collected clothes as much as I can and went with my parents wearing night dress.During the road trip I bought few clothes on the way and reached the destination àt 5pm and started trekking on the same day.I had no idea where I was going .After 2 days we reached the final destination "pachpokhari lake" which was so beautiful.I slept infornt of lake for 2hrs, clicked photos and searched for yarshagumba"6 months animal and 6 months plant" and ate them. It was totally a overwhelming trip that I have ever been to and yeah it was a God's plan for sure.
