After going through pages 6 and 7, it seemed like Nepal was
simply a random place he chose to get started for the world trip. He apparently
decided to go to Nepal so that he would have stories to tell. He wanted to create an impression that he has
a desire to help orphans in need.
According to the pages,
53-55 the author was having a hard time letting go the orphanage and children
there. He seems to be really attached to
the children there. He seemed to have understood the pain his mother felt when
she bade him goodbye. Moreover, the three month with the children made him love
them like his own. This was the reason why he decides to return within a year.
Comparing his initial reasons with the later reasons, I noticed
significant changes in the perspective of the author. At first he picked Nepal
simply because he had to pick a place to start with, but later he wanted to
return to Nepal because he feels attached to it. Initially he imagined himself
to go around the orphanage and merely spend 3 months. However, after those
three months, he wanted to return because he loved the children whom he called “orphans’
three months ago.
