Many of us are guilty of designing fabulous houses but skimping on bathroom décor thinking it’s a room that is supposed to be functional and nothing else. But that’s where we are wrong. A bathroom can be so much more than that. A nice bathroom can be a part of a morning ritual that you actually look forward to. So, pay attention to little things when you design or remodel your bathroom space to add a little bit of luxury in your life.

It is said that every city has a life and personality of its own. If that is so, then Birgunj is like a vibrant and a little eccentric nomad who doesn’t live life by any set rules. Apart from its proximity to Raxaul, a major border transit point with India, and being a bustling metropolis for trade and business, the city is undoubtedly culturally rich and aesthetically pleasing as well. After the economic blockade last year, Nepalis probably have come to understand how important towns like Birgunj are to the country’s overall supply system.

If you are thinking of changing your look for the summer, then a fresh new haircut might be just what you need. But it can be pretty challenging to decide on a style. The Week is here to help. We bring you some hairstyles that are currently in vogue and being sported by celebrities too.

There are some people who will let their food get cold as they try to get that perfect photo. Most likely this art of a photo will be for their Snapchat story. The frenzy of this app where everything you post will disappear in 24 hours built up so much that popular social media networks like Instagram and then Facebook messenger too introduced this feature.

Healthy living isn’t an easy thing. And it’s all the more difficult when you are overweight or haven’t been going to the gym or following a diet plan for the longest time. Starting is the hard part but harder still is following through on your plans and keeping at it. I have struggled with weight for a large part of my life and though I’m no longer overweight, I still struggle to look better, feel more energetic, and generally be a fitness driven person.

A part of the exotic foods franchise, Le Mirch is an Indian food restaurant with a French influence. In the name itself, the le is an article definis’ in the French language, so even before ordering your food, you already see some French influence. A new addition to the food court at LABIM mall, Le Mirch wants its dishes to impress.

It’s common knowledge that drinking eight glasses of water day is deemed essential for the body to function properly. However, do you know when the right time to drink water is? Likewise, when we talk about food, many may be well versed on the various nutrients found in our daily diet but did you know, certain activities may negate their benefits?

I don’t know if it’s just me or not but of late, every time I pull up the newspaper we happen to be a part of some ranking or the other. Ok, that was slightly exaggerated but whenever these listings come up (and they do rather frequently), invariably it’s our capital city that crops up in the top tier of these often, undesirable listings. For instance, in February, Kathmandu was ranked as the seventh worst polluted city in the world among 290 cities and now we are at it again.

Many Nepali cricket fans watch the game for one reason: to see India get walloped. Cheering at India’s loss (the more humiliating, the better) is a way for us to get back at the often-overbearing southern neighbor, which repeatedly offends our rather delicate Nepali sensibilities. In the event of an Indian loss, we tune into Aaj Tak, just for the sheer pleasure of watching the hyperventilating anchors rip their national team apart.

Sandhya Yonzon was 28 years old when she accepted a ring from her boyfriend. When she did, she had no clue that she was now somebody’s fiancée.
