\"\"<\/p>\n

Coming into our shared guestroom with my ears still ringing from the blaring horns and yelling hawkers of busy Kathmandu streets, it echos from the bathroom….<\/p>\n

Arms full of groceries, closing the front door of my mountain house with a handy foot, it wafts up to me from the greenhouse…<\/p>\n

Wandering into the coffee shop, where she’s scheduled for a Sunday night session, on the very first day where a best-friendship was born, it bounces off the corners of a small room….<\/p>\n

On 15,000 foot mountain passes, high and teary eyed with altitude sickness, it reflects off of high altitude desert walls…<\/p>\n

Outside of a bus on a broken rural road waiting for a driver who we aren’t sure exists, it lifts a few weary travellers’ spirits…<\/p>\n

With tears in her eyes, testifying to the universal truths of hearts, broken or free…<\/p>\n

From bathrooms (her favorite sound studio) and greenhouses and coffee houses and mountain homes and passes,<\/p>\n

Please enter my world and hear the bathroom echo and voice that never fails to water my eyes with respect, love, empathy and joy….<\/p>\n
