Riepe is a simple village in Nepal that encapsulates so much. Here are examples of self-sufficiency; with ploughing, planting, irrigating, cropping, winnowing and milling, and with bee hives and coffee plants and the births of chicks, kid goats and calves.
From Riepe’s basic harvest comes staple food, and too, quarried and cut and gathered locally, are the materials for building the homes.
Riepe is truly a reflection of its surroundings and of its weather and of its peoples’ beliefs, with every blessing and every curse heaven sent.
