Today I've learned something new. I think Nepal has the same lifestyle as Bhutan, I really love how simple the living there and how connected the people are to the nature. These people are not disconnected to the universe and natural world. Are those different ethnic groups still present in modern Nepal?

We are so happy to hear that! It is true, people are more down to earth and in a way connected to nature, but mostly in mountains, remote areas and out of the big cities.
The groups are still present and if you ask someone, they will tell you quickly to where they belong. However due to mixing this groups, many are getting lesser and lesser. Hopefully, they will still somehow be able to continue that and not fall into the trap of mimicing the rest of the world with fashion, phones, social media, different lifestyle, etc. 🙏😁
Wish you a nice day!

Wow that's amazing to hear. They're not conforming to the fractured society. These people are really bliss. A curiosity in my mind wants to know what do they mean by "they will tell you quickly where they belong."

Nicely said! Well in a sense that when we met new people from Nepal, mentioned the groups and talk about it - they said very fast, that I belong for example to Gurungs. Then you realize that in their family they don't speak with each other Nepali language but different, in line with their ethnic group. We just meant that majority of people knows this and know which group they are. 😁
Hopefully, now it's more understandable.

Oh okay. Thanks for explaining it to me. It's really interesting discovering the culture of other people around the world.
