My mum and I did a 1-day hiking tour near Kathmandu with Joel. He is an amazing and experienced guide and above all very kind person. The hike was very nice, but what we liked the most was Joel company. We highly recommend him when going to any tour by WP Travel Engine Adventure. Also, the owner Joel is very nice and professional. Joel knows what Western travelers want and need. He is intelligent, informative and wise.

I did the trek twice in 2 years with WP Travel Engine Adventure - Poon Hill trek and Langtang trek. The company planned every detail of the trips that made us worry-free and assured that we got the best quality services during the whole trip. Our trek guides were so experienced, knowledgeable, caring, and humorous that made our trips full of laughter! Even the porters were of high quality and taking care of us when needed.

Sunrise is the most beautiful and basecamp sunrise should be a must if you\'re in the area. Did the Annapurna Circuit with Nepal Eco Adventure and cannot recommend Joel and his team highly enough. Joel knows what Western travelers want and need. He is intelligent, informative, wise, careful and a mine of information about Nepal, its history, and customs.

Great trek and great guide/porter provided by unique adventure. I can simply recommend this trekking agency. The owner Joel Karki is an extremely helpful man, who will do whatever it takes to help you organize your trip and provide the best possible services. He also stays in touch to make sure everything is fine and well going. I met a lot of different customer attitudes in Nepal, and Joel has one of the best of them all. You are simply not just a pile of money for him.

The modern attitude to children emerged by the late 19th century; the Victorian middle and upper classes emphasized the role of the family and the sanctity of the child, – an attitude that has remained dominant in Western societies ever since. The genre of children’s literature took off, with a proliferation of humorous, child-oriented books attuned to the child’s imagination. Lewis Carroll’s fantasy Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, published in 1865 in England, was a landmark in the genre; regarded as the first “English masterpiece written for children”, its publication opened the “First Golden Age” of children’s literature.
The latter half of the 19th century saw the introduction of compulsory state schooling of children across Europe, which decisively removed children from the workplace into schools.
The market economy of the 19th century enabled the concept of childhood as a time of fun of happiness. Factory-made dolls and doll houses delighted the girls and organized sports and activities were played by the boys. The Boy Scouts was founded by Sir Robert Baden-Powell in 1908,which provided young boys with outdoor activities aiming at developing character, citizenship, and personal fitness qualities.
