You’ve never seen Nepal like this before.

Listen up, aspiring photographers/photo journalists/anyone with a pulse. This is your chance to WIN a 10-day photo assignment, all expenses paid, among the snow-capped slopes of the Himalayas.

It’s a long uphill climb but smiles are back on innocent faces and time it seems has healed.

Four months on from the quake, we thought we’d take stock and show you exactly where your money went (you generous travellers, you).

Time your Nepal trip just right and you could have the ultimate mountain send-off (or welcome back) – we’re talking street dancing, candle lighting, dog worshipping fun (that last one is totally true).

For anyone interested in the reality of post-earthquake life in Nepal, or for any travellers thinking of trekking there in the near future, this is essential reading.

Photographer Remy Hoehener and his wife were there on the 25th of April when the quake struck. His images of Nepal might be the best we’ve ever seen.
