I was a man with a plan, and my plan was to go to China. Unfortunately, the flight tickets from Kathmandu to China were very expensive. But no need to despair: “nearby” India (Kolkata) could get me to China (Kunming) for about half the price! So I had set my sights on India, the Sonauli land border in particular. On the way to Sonauli lay Tansen, a small village where - according to my travel guide - one could do some great dayhikes, and get a great view of the Himalayas. The latter had been mostly missing in Pokhara, due to hazy winter weather. So I hopped on the local bus to Tansen, where I met many friendly Nepalis, including one who brought his goat. Tansen turned out to be a disappointment: the same hazy weather persisted, so no Himalaya views, and the short walks to the viewpoints turned out to be littered with garbage.
