An Annapurna Child by Ryszard Wierzbicki
Children on the road when Trekking in Annapurna Circuit are very curious about every Foreigner passing by. In fact, it is very difficult to meet many kids in the daytime because they have a long hard way too and back from school at midday. So the only chance to meet them is when they return from school or when visiting classes.
