Young Architect


Today, I met Jharana Shrestha, 9, a young architect from Yamdi, Kaski. She goes to Pascal Academy to study in third grade. The beautiful house that she is sitting aside is designed by her. Small and cozy place, yet a beautiful one.

Watching her, I recalled my young days when we used to play in the sand hills making all the roads and bridges. I wish to see her work in future also. I imagine she would see the picture some 15-20 years from now and would be lost in the reminiscence like me today.
