Nepal is great. The people are generally very friendly. Kathmandu is very cosmopolitan. The mountains are stunning. I am going back again for the first time in 25 years. I'm doing a much gentler trek this time!

Kathmandu's pollution has spiraled out of control so please expect to find a much dustier capital.
That's a pity. Thanks for the heads up. Will take a face mask.
I've been to Nepal a bunch of times and I usually recommend just passing quickly through KTM to get to where you are going. The dust can be terrible and it is loud and polluted - the opposite reason to why most people generally want to go to Nepal. Better to spend more time in the mountains or Pokhara
And mosquito born diseases are going around like crazy thanks to global warming.
