Nepal Earthquake - 25 April, 2015

Most of you are probably aware of the catastrophic 7.8 magnitude earthquake that struck Nepal between Kathmandu and Pokhara on Saturday a little before noon. I flew out of the airport in Kathmandu, one of the areas most devastated by the earthquake, less than four hours before it happened. Normally, SuperTrippin' is meant to be entertaining and hopefully even informative on occasion. I'll probably still do a typical write-up of my trip to Nepal, eventually. Right now stories about where to find the best pizza and haggling over a buck on the price of a local handicraft don't seem to relative. Nepal is one of the poorest nations on Earth. It is also filled with some of the nicest people one could meet. They need as much help as they can get right now. So, please, if you can spare a few dollars, click one of the links below to read about how you can help with various organizations. If you don't like any of these and know of a different one, check out their website. Every little bit will help.
