Paradeshko Pasina is a collaborative work of seven writers about problems and prospects of foreign employment in Nepal. Each of the writers has written about various areas of foreign employment. The book is edited by Yangesh, a noted journalist in Nepal. The topics cover government policies, remittance, changes created by foreign employment and others.

This book is based on the latest facts and data. 

6. Eat veg momo at Bagmati Sweets 

While there are a lot of momo joints that serve good non-veg momo, there are very few that only serve veg momo. Bagmati Sweets in Tripureshwor is one that serves enticing paneer momos along with a really tasty tomato pickle. 

7. Visit Civil Mall
