I've been here enough times that I'm comfortable navigating this country and Kathmadu on my own. My typical routine includes visiting a couple of my favorite places to eat and staying at a decent but [...]

Unfortunately, as we were taxied out to the runway for take-off in Chicago, the pilot announced that there was a medical emergency on the [...]
