What do people like (and dislike) about Kathmandu?

"Expats and digital nomads living in Kathmandu, often appreciate the rich cultural heritage, friendly locals, and affordable cost of living. They enjoy the vibrant atmosphere, diverse food options, and the opportunity to explore the beautiful landscapes and historical sites in and around the city. However, they may also face challenges such as poor infrastructure, unreliable internet connectivity, and frequent power outages. The city's heavy traffic, pollution, and noise can be overwhelming, and the lack of proper waste management can lead to unsanitary conditions. Additionally, expats and digital nomads may find it difficult to navigate the bureaucracy and language barriers when dealing with local authorities or setting up a business," explained one expat living in Kathmandu, Nepal.
