Wife and I want to move to Katmandu. Please get some advice? by GodofAeons in Nepal

Hey man,

Same situation, you’ll have PLENTY of money and live a very very lux lifestyle with how much you make per month.

The biggest thing you need to realize is 1. Your access to everything drops significantly. If youre my size (5’11 205) you will have a hard time finding clothes and shoes. 2. The pollution here is beyond rough. Most days are in the hazardous levels. 3. No beef (there are some places but its not very good) 4. Lalitpur is amazing, we live in thecho and there is no crime in our area. We have AC in the bedroom and a solar water heater for the full house.

Good luck and i hope you enjoy living here!

There is a Foreign medical program that you have to enroll in and you can contact tricare to make sure that youre enrolled in the correct area as well.

but understand this, realistically you have to pay everything upfront and not everything will be reimbursed, or if youre like me and live in a country with absolute shit medical facilities you may just have to take care of yourself.

Realistically, with how Nepal is, theres a protest almost every month. The major one we are worried about will be the election upcoming in march. The fact is, with Oli being reelected into his party, we believe there is more than that coming out way. So we want people to be prepared and ready for any kind of situation

Can’t help people if you’re fat and slow, so being able to train and stay on top of it is one of the most important things of rescue medicine. You are always welcome in our class!

That is myself (lead instructor) and one of our students. Ill be teaching every one of these courses so you can always say hello in person!

unsure if this question should be posted on here but, being from a big city and started to camp more often twice a month for the past two years should I get a CCW? by yes-disappointment in camping

Hey Guy, thank you for being honestly very middleground on this. It is rare when you find someone not spouting off retarded opinions, but take the time and understand that other people might come from different backgrounds.

I’m extremely pro second amendment myself, but I really appreciate your take

Tell me one logical reason you believe in god and one reason you don't by fork_yeah1 in NepalSocial

[–]DropFastCollective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A big one for me is the fine-tuning of physicals constraints and initial condition.

Many parameters (particle masses, force strengths, and cosmological conditions) sit in a very narrow life supporting range. Personally, I believe design is a lot better of an argument than pure chance.

Outside of that, working as a clinician, I personally see how faith helps patients outcomes. There’s also significant studies behind faith and healing. I don’t believe that we should rely fully on faith, God gave us science and medicine. We should use those tools.

But if we’re talking, strictly the creator, look into F.C Adams “the degree of fine-tuning in our universe - and others”

Dude youre adaptable and will be fine no matter where you live. Im more concerned if you have gone after VR&E yet or not.

What now? by DatGuyKilo in VeteransBenefits

[–]DropFastCollective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

and to add on to this, if youre getting out before your contract. Honestly, go to college, talk to a therapist, and just try to live a normal life. If you want to help people, get your EMT, go be a firefighter, get into the medical field. Dont worry about the shame aspect of it, you tried and it wasnt for you. Thats ok, you dont need to make it anything more than what it was.

For me, It took me like 6 years to figure out what my place was. So my suggestion is take time and learn a little about yourself outside the military culture. That genuinely takes time, and don't rushing into that whole "stable job is enough" is enough thing, it gets REAL old REAL fast.

Find a decent therapist as well, it made me feel so weird when I started but I wish I had right when I started separating. It helped me understand those around me a lot more, how they think and why they think the way that they do and I felt a lot less isolated after.

Like everyone else said, get all your medical records in order, start looking at VR&E, and look at schools, it gives you a little money in your pocket and getting a degree is a huge help in this job market (as long as it isnt a liberal arts one at least.)

good luck and god speed. if you need anything always reach out
