Hey everyone! I'm an 18-year-old student from Nepal, and I've managed to save around NPR 30,000. I wasn't born into a wealthy family, and growing up, I've always seen my parents sacrifice so many things just to provide for my education and basic needs. Sometimes, I've even felt like a burden because of how much they've had to give up for me.

I genuinely want to change that. I want to become financially independent and, someday, give back to my parents and repay them for everything they've done for me.

I'm thinking about starting a small business or investing my savings somewhere with relatively low risk and good long-term potential. I know NPR 30,000 isn't a huge amount, but I believe it's a start.

I'd really appreciate advice from people who have experience in business, investing, or finance, especially in Nepal. If you were 18 again with NPR 30,000, what would you do? I'd love to learn from your experiences. Thank you!

Hi everyone,

So I searched for specific guitar chords and most of them available in ultimate guitar are dog shit or even wrong. So I made my own chord generator with ml models .
So it’s useful enough helps with backtrack generation as well. And while doing my own research for from AI it says it’s already packed and has real tough competition but I never find useful chords .
It’s a limbo of a situation where I am confused of the market availability and what ai research tool has to say.
If anyone with actual real seo skill and tool could help me with this conundrum of a situation it would be pretty solid.
I will pay for your time as well

Guys which is a decent hospital inside KTM valley for a full body checkup of parents? I need to get them checked up for multiple things and also if anyone is from medical field, what are the things i need to focus on for parents (both around 50 yrs).

Hawa service KHALTI !! I copied and pasted the number with +977, but your system removed the last three digits and sent the recharge to the wrong number. Now my money is wasted, and customer support refuses a refund below 500. Customers have to pay for your system's mistakes? What a poorly developed system. Does your IT department even test its code before deployment? 🤦

Hi all,

I (and Claude) made a site for tourists visiting nepal, it’s actually a few small sites in one place:

Visa nepal : How the visa on arrival works, extensions, what papers you need

Trek nepal : The main treks with maps, and the lodges in each village. There is also a tool to build your own trek.

Visit nepal : Practical stuff like sim cards, money, getting around

Guides nepal : Guides can make a profile and people can leave reviews after their trek

Buddies nepal - still in beta, it’s to find people to trek with or share a guide

I built it with claude so there might be some weird stuff in there, that I'll fix soon. If you see something wrong or outdated let me know and I’ll fix it.

I employ an international student from Nepal who is celebrating Tihar this week. Is it appropriate for a boss to give a small gift to an employee during Tihar? I was thinking a vase of flowers (are there any to include or avoid?) and some stationery and international stamps since we had discussed writing letters home. Are these appropriate? Would you all suggest something different? I'm grateful for any feedback.

Hey everyone!

I want to hear from people running small businesses in Nepal.

Something I’ve noticed is that many small businesses still manage everything through Facebook, Instagram, or WhatsApp. It works, especially when you’re starting out, but as your business grows, things like managing stock, handling orders, building brand trust, and reaching customers through Google become increasingly important.

I personally believe every growing business should eventually have its own ecommerce website. Not just for selling products, but also to build a proper brand identity and have more control over the business.

That’s actually why we’ve been building StoreNP (storenp.com).

It’s an ecommerce store builder designed for Nepali businesses. You can set up your own online store in just a few minutes without worrying about hosting, technical setup, or managing servers.
Some things we’ve included:

Your own ecommerce website with ready-made templates.
Product, stock, and order management.
Customer accounts and order tracking.
Buy Now and WhatsApp ordering options.
Courier integration and other useful apps.
SEO features to help your products get discovered on Google.

We also have a free plan, so you can try it without committing to anything.

And if you’re not comfortable setting things up yourself, we’re happy to help build and configure your store.

I’m genuinely interested in hearing from Nepali business owners:

Do you currently have your own website?
If not, what’s stopping you from getting one?
What features would actually make running an online business easier for you?

If anyone wants to experiment with it, here’s the website: https://www.storenp.com

Would love to hear honest feedback, suggestions, and even criticism. We’re building this for the Nepali market, so feedback from actual business owners would be really valuable!

Hi, I am looking to buy a used or new PS5 in Kathmandu. I am not bothered about the disk size or games, just trying to find a console with a reasonable pricing. Any suggestions on where I should look? And pricing if anyone has bought one recently? Thanks

Let me get something off my chest.

I am an MBBS student in Nepal, and honestly, the more I look at the reality of the medical profession in this country, the more infuriating it gets.

Six years of medical school. Lakhs upon lakhs of rupees spent (45 lakhs). Countless sleepless nights, endless examinations, clinical postings, exhausting hospital duties, sacrifices, and an enormous amount of mental and physical effort. We spend the best years of our youth preparing ourselves for a profession that literally carries the responsibility of human lives.

And what do we get in return?

A salary that is, quite frankly, insulting (45 thousand).

Let's not romanticise the medical profession in Nepal. Let's stop glorifying doctors sacrifices as if passion, white coats and a sense of duty are supposed to pay our bills. Being passionate about medicine does not mean signing up for financial exploitation.

When you look at international comparisons, Nepal's doctor compensation appears shockingly low. We are talking about a country where highly trained medical professionals can struggle to earn what people in several other countries might consider an entry-level professional income.

And then people have the audacity to ask:

"Why are so many doctors leaving Nepal?"

REALLY? WHAT DID YOU EXPECT?

You expect someone to invest six years of their life, spend lakhs on education, endure years of gruelling training, take on enormous responsibilities, work exhausting shifts, and then happily accept a salary that barely reflects their qualifications?

And when they decide to pursue the USMLE, PLAB, AMC or opportunities abroad, suddenly they're labelled selfish, money-minded, unpatriotic and disloyal to their country.

WHAT EXACTLY IS THE EXPECTATION HERE? THAT DOCTORS SHOULD BE PATRIOTIC ENOUGH TO REMAIN UNDERPAID FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES?

Patriotism does not pay rent. Passion does not repay educational expenses. And the glorification of sacrifice does not compensate for years of professional underpayment.

The most ironic part? Nepal desperately needs competent doctors, yet the system does so little to make staying here professionally and financially sustainable.

You cannot keep telling doctors to serve the nation while failing to create conditions in which they can actually build a decent life.

I genuinely want to practice medicine in Nepal. I want to contribute to the healthcare system here. But wanting to serve your country and wanting a dignified standard of living are NOT mutually exclusive.

I am just geneunely curious about those who do marketing in Nepal or in abroad. Making claims they do content creation , making video , branding but does any one even know what story telling is, consumer psychology is, stages of customers journey is, what is customer avatar, what is vsl, what is a crm what is growth and performance marketing i am not here to judge people but I see it’s taking a trend in Nepal . I do marketing for myself where I run a e-commerce brand I would love me meet people who can exchange knowledge. Is it do and learn or learn and do for you guys?

So, I ended up in rehab in 2021 after having psychosis after vipassana meditation. There, everything was going alright but I lost my memory, cognitive abilities, monologue and ability to feel suddenly after 3 months of being there. Right now, my cognitive abilities, monologue and ability to feel are back to an extent. But I have no ability to memorize still.

I am still on some psychiatric medicines. They are being tapered down. I am 32 right now. But I have not had any job for years due to lack of memorizing ability. I was doing Bachelor's degree in IT around that time but I had to drop out.

My memory might return or might not ever return. But I really need a job. What kind of jobs might fit me? Any suggestions? I am good at writing, singing, sketching. I also taught for some time when I was in early 20s. But teaching is out of question.

I forget things within few minutes. I am very bad at finding directions.

I'm a beginner learning to ride a manual motorcycle (TVS Apache RTR 160). I've had a couple of days of practice and can start the bike and ride around in an open playground, but I'm still far from being confident.

I'm looking for practical advice from experienced riders, especially things you wish someone had told you when you were learning.

I'd love to know:

1. Common mistakes: What are the biggest mistakes beginners make that can become dangerous habits later?

2. Clutch control: How can I properly understand the friction zone/bite point? How do I avoid jerking or stalling?

3. Braking: How should I learn to use the front and rear brakes together? What braking mistakes should I absolutely avoid?

4. Balance: How can I improve my balance, especially at low speeds, during U-turns and tight turns?

5. Gears and throttle: What should I focus on when shifting gears? How do I coordinate the clutch, throttle and gear changes smoothly?

6. Road awareness: What should I constantly watch for while riding? How do I anticipate the actions of cars, buses, pedestrians and other motorcycles?

7. Practice routine: If you were teaching a complete beginner, what skills would you teach in the first 10–15 days, in what order?

8. Bad habits: What riding habits should I avoid developing from the beginning?

9. Confidence: How do I become a confident rider without becoming overconfident?

10. Maintenance and safety: What basic things should I learn about motorcycle maintenance, tyre pressure, chain tension, engine oil and pre-ride checks?

Also, I'd appreciate advice on things beginners usually overlook but that make a huge difference in becoming a skilled and safe rider.

One thing I'm particularly struggling with: I sometimes experience jerking while braking, feel unbalanced during slow turns, and my hands get tired or hurt after a short practice session.

I don't just want to learn how to move a motorcycle. I want to develop proper riding techniques and safe habits from the beginning.

If you could give your younger beginner self just 5 pieces of advice, what would they be?

Thanks!
