I couldn\u2019t help but notice the word \u201cOui\u201d, tattooed on her wrist.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI say yes to life, darling!\u201d she said with a French accent when I asked her about it, \u201cThis tattoo is a reminder to myself \u2013 to always say oui!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to travel, how many opportunities pass us by because we are so set on going to see a particular site \u2013 so determined to tick X, Y and Z off our trip to-do-list? How easy is it to say \u2018yes\u2019 when we already have plans? I used to be the girl who mapped out each and every holiday. I\u2019d dedicate many hours to reading Trip Advisor reviews about guesthouses \u2013 booking them in advance and then using my yellow highlighter on the photocopied pages of a Lonely Planet book to mark the recommended restaurants nearby. I\u2019d basically research the crap out of a place. When I touched down in a new town, I\u2019d set off on my \u2018adventure\u2019, which was never that much of an adventure because, well, I knew what to expect.<\/p>\n<p><iframe width=\"1170\" height=\"658\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OAzI0AlYVMA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>I have a confession. It\u2019s not just when I travel. I\u2019ve spent most of my adult life creating schedules for myself. This has resulted in a considerable amount of achievement \u2013 creatively and professionally. But it has also meant that I\u2019ve had to say \u2018no\u2019 to many things.<\/p>\n<p>Last year I did something completely out of character. I flew to <strong><a data-wpil=\"url\" href=\"\/nepal\">Nepal <\/a><\/strong>without a plan. All I knew was that I wanted to spend three months in the Himalayas. The rest? I had no idea. And that scared the hell\u00a0out of me. But I went anyway.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"\/asia\">CHECK OUT OUR RANGE OF SMALL GROUP TOURS IN ASIA FOR A TRIP OF A LIFETIME<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I wound up in the lakeside town of Pokhara where I rented a room for $6 a night in a guesthouse with a glorious rooftop terrace that faced Machapuchare. Each morning I\u2019d stare at that magnificent mountain and wonder what the day had in store for me. At first, I felt lost without a schedule, but it didn\u2019t take long before I started to have fun with my self-gifted freedom.<\/p>\n<p>One morning, after my banana porridge, I took a walk into town where I saw a wooden post that pointed to a Tibetan refugee settlement. I followed it\u2026past two beady-eyed goats and a man holding prayer beads, smoking a pipe. At the gates I met a teenager dressed in maroon. His name was Tenzin. We began chatting and I told him that I was interested in volunteering somewhere\u2026 that I wanted to help in some way.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/subscriptions\"><strong>SUBSCRIBE TO OUR NEWSLETTER FOR GIVEAWAYS, STORIES, COMPETITIONS &amp; MORE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat kind of helping?\u201d he asked. I hadn\u2019t thought that far ahead, but I said that maybe I could teach English. \u201cPlease wait here for some minutes,\u201d he replied before leaving.<\/p>\n<p>Ten minutes later he appeared. He motioned for me to follow him into the monastery. We climbed two flights of stairs and arrived at a dim room with a small glass-less window and a grubby rug on the floor. We talked a little. He told me he was from Mustang and that his mother lived alone in a hut in the mountains where she was always cold. After awhile a frail boy with a shaven head, also dressed in maroon, peeped his head around the doorway.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAh, yes, your students are now here,\u201d Tenzin smiled at me as the young boy put his two hands together and said a soft, \u201cNamaste\u201d. My students? Eleven more boys pushed through the door and sat on the floor. Tenzin stood up and introduced me:<\/p>\n<p><a data-wpil=\"url\" href=\"\/nepal\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17692\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intrepidtravel.com\/adventures\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/nepal-trip.gif\" alt=\"nepal-trip\" width=\"800\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is Angie. She is your new English teacher!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The boys beamed back at me. What could I say?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes. Yes, I\u2019m your new English teacher\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>I spent the next two hours sitting cross-legged in front of a not-so-white board, with a bunch of boy monks so enthusiastic about spelling the words \u2018chicken\u2019, \u2018rooster\u2019, \u2018horse\u2019 and \u2018goat\u2019 that almost leapt into my lap as they sounded them out. I guess the beauty of having no plans during my time in Nepal was that I was able to say \u2018yes\u2019 to all sorts of things\u2026 Like adopting a class of Tibetan boy monks. Like going to Chitwan to buy a cow. Like riding on the back of a motorbike to meet a secret shaman in the hills. Like jamming with a gypsy jazz dude from Paris in a bar in Pokhara.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"\/adventures\/everest-group-tour\/\">REVEALED:\u00a0TREKKING EVEREST AS A GROUP TOUR SKEPTIC<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In typical Nepali fashion, most of the time after saying \u2018yes\u2019 the plan would fall through or morph into something completely different\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAngie, you can not teach the boys anymore because you are a woman. So thank you for your time but please do not come back to the monastery. Would you like to meet me for yak butter tea sometime?\u201d Yes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAngie, I think maybe you don\u2019t come to buy this cow with me because now my uncle is coming with me and if you travel with us in the small car it might start some rumours with my family about me and a white woman so I think no farm shopping today. But I will need another cow next month. Shall we go together to Chitwan then?\u201d Yes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAngie, tonight we must cancel the concert in the restaurant but do you want to come with me and my friends to a Nepali wedding where there will be much dancing and food?\u201d Yes.
