Saving the world - vol.2

One day - by the way - I was saving the world again! :)
I was just walking along Pokhara's shopping street, when I found one tiny shop of Women Support Group - selling handmade bags. And even though I'm not very keen in buying anything and having even this fatal "closer look", I accepted the invitation and entered the shop this time. The manager of the shop was just so kind and shining and friendly! She introduced their production process, the shop and organization. And in back-side I could see women working: creating fabric and sewing the bags.. Everything was so close and so real and so.. genuine, that buying bag from this shop felt like a real contribution! And as I didn't find bag with suitable color and size, I just gave special order and got exactly the bag I wanted couple of days later. I'm unbelievably proud to have this bag!

So far I have made following contributions for making world a better place:

• I have cleaned one very dirty bathroom (as mentioned before).
• I have proved to one person, that even though the trash is laying everywhere on the streets, he can change something, when NOT throwing his empty plastic bottle there additionally.
• I have taught one guy from dormitory's cleaning staff, how to clean the carpet from the dust (without vacuum cleaner).
• I have got used to go to bed late(r) and wake up earli(er)
  (I know, it is a small step for the humankind but big step for me ;)
