Scenario: A group of tired trekkers arrives at a lodge in Namche Bazaar after a long day. The lodge manager, a former diploma student, notices they are exhausted. Instead of just showing them to their rooms, he immediately offers them a hot towel and a cup of local ginger tea in the dining hall, where a heater is running. He gives them a few minutes to relax before starting the check-in process. This simple act of genuine care, rooted in Nepali hospitality, makes the guests feel incredibly welcome and sets a positive tone for their entire stay.
