On assignment for @natgeotravel in Nepal // Photo by @alisonwrightphoto // Words by @carriemiller_writer // Photographer Alison Wright calls Nepal her second home, her spiritual home. "What I love about Nepal is the serendipity," Alison says. "You will always find something, whether you are looking for it or not." // This image, taken in #Boudhanath, is a perfect example of that serendipity. "I turned down a narrow alley and found myself at the Jamchen Lhakhang Monastery, where the #Buddhist monks were in the process of dismantling a sand mandala, which is a rare thing to see." // This ritualistic deconstruction of a meticulously crafted symbol is a bold statement of impermanence, a reminder that we're all experiencing a series of moments, never to be repeated. #onassignment #natgeotravel #natgeojourneys #nepal
