I live in the Los Angeles area. Wikipedia interests include:

Nepal history and geography. I spent 2-1/2 years there as a Peace Corps Volunteer. I lived with two different families, one in Pokhara and one in Kathmandu while I was in Nepal. My post was in Pyuthan District, Rapti Zone where I maintained my own living quarters but was an honorary member of a third household which I visited several times a week. I believe I am well qualified to comment on differences between Hindu extended families and nuclear families in the West.

Western Massachusetts, particularly Pioneer Valley and the Hilltowns further west. I grew up in one of the hilltowns

Native trout and salmon of North America. I have fished for most species and sub-species found in the western U.S. and Canada.
