Being 15 in Nepal

Being 15 in Nepal Nyle gibbs hour 2 faulk

"The history of Nepal has been influenced by its position in the Himalayas and its two neighbors, modern day India and China. Due to the "arrival of disparate settler" groups from outside through the ages, it is now a multiethnic, multiracial, multicultural, multi religious, and multilingual country." Nepal is 56,827 square miles and is located north of India. The average elevation is ~6,000 meters.

Being 15 in Nepal is constrained and difficult , because of lack of education and amount of work.

Being fifteen in Nepal would be hard work because getting an education and a job is very difficult so most teens are forced to resort to agricultural labor in order get the resources required to survive. the women must care for the young children and elderly which makes it even harder for them. However. it also can be fun living in Nepal as a 15 year old because you can do fun activities such as hiking in the Himalayas, playing the wheel and stick game, and reading.

One challenge in Nepal is getting an education and a job.

Most people in Nepal have to work in the field of agriculture. (“Nepal Foundation for Rural Educational and Economic Development.” Life in Nepal, Nepal Freed, www.nepalfreed.org/nepallife.html.)

Because education and a job is hard to get, the people of Nepal have to work on a farm

Some cool parts of Nepal might be hiking and looking at the Himalayas.

the kids in Nepal like to look at the Himalayas mountains. (Basnet, Rosha. “A Day in the Life of a Teen in Nepal - OhmyNews International.” A Day in the Life of a Teen in Nepal - OhmyNews International, Ohmy News, 2006, english.ohmynews.com/articleview/article_view.asp?no=328434&rel_no=1.)

Rosha Basnet, a Nepali teen, likes to go trekking in the Himalayas.

We can all understand the hard work required to be a Nepali teenager because we have hard work to do as well.

Through this process of taking perspective, I understand that in a way, my life can be very similar to those in Nepal.

if I was 15 in Nepal, I would feel stressed, like I do in the states.

In Nepal, all of the work involved would be hard on a 15 year old in Nepal.
