bittertruth: I didn't do a single thing on your list when I was back home last time and I don't think I'll ever do any of them.
rahasya: you are right about the Pokhara trip.

The only thing I did when I was back home was No. 8 (Avoids eating more chili (hot) stuff.)
I was trying to show my friends I still love and can eat hot food like chicken chilly but didnt work out.

None of those above statement that I did except saying Zero as a "0" .
But you forgot one main thing, that most likely everyone does, That is saying "Thank you" at the end.
I do go Nepal frequently but one time in 2009, I always take this guy, my high school friend. Ofourse, after staying in states, you do think every waiter or every person doing an ordinary job in Nepal, we try to comapre ourself as we do the same kind here to support while going to school. So, where ever I went, I used to tip a lot even like 500Rs when the bill is just 1500 Rs and even I went couple of times to Casino also. I used to tip every person including the Manager's, the floor girl and the person who cleans the toilet.
At the same trip, I had to apply visa for US and I was at Nabil Bank and I had some issues that I had to give them a copy of my i20 but i left it at home and that section was about to close within 30 mins. They said that they will wait for me if I can bring within 2 hrs. I brought it, we solved and this guy was with me, my friend. After I finsh the task in the bank, My friend told me, "Malai ta kata timile tyo bank ko manche lai ni Tips dinchau hola jasato lagiraheko thiyo". I laughed at him and I asked him, how do they separate us people coming from States. He told me that our behaviour, the way we speak and the attitude(humble, respect and polite) differenciates us from the others. And moreover, he told me that we have Hands gestures every time we speak.
CHEERS !!! Happy Friday Fellas !!!

I probably did most of em, but I was no way near trying to be pretentious.I would say stuff then right after that I would say it in the traditional way . And most of the time my audience would not even realize it. I guess it depends upon u. I was 18 when I came here, I am 26 now, I was the only Nepali at the college and end up hangin out with bunch of rednecks, blacks and hispanics.I went home last year and I probably said bunch of the stuffs above and others. Not blowing my own trumpet, and I dont think its something to brag about either but it what it is.
Except using credit card stuff. Are you kidding me?? Dai malai ek plate momo... Do u guys take plastic here?? That sure would have been funny..

Things i did while in Nepal:
Tried to cross the road, No the cars dont stop.
Every time i had momo, i asked for a beef momo instead of buff
Got in the middle of Julus while in Newroad. Bunch of 8 year olds lead the julus with bricks and stones.
Had momo for 95% of time.
Felt how expensive every thing had become.
Was surprised how my home hadnt changed a bit. My room was the same i left.
Damn beers had jumped from 85 to 350.
Had to have Newroad ko samosa to get the upper mouth burnt because of heat.
Had street burgers, no they werent good.
Saw a chatpate bhaiya, didnt want to risk another stomach upset damn momo's already did that.
All in all had a good trip.

bittertruth, why don't we spend some time together travelling and doing some fun stuff when i'm home next time? you'll see if what i wrote above is true or not. by the way, you might want to add this to the list:
- you still try to fool a conductor in bus showing expired/fake ID card.
i tried (used my university ID card, was valid though) and it worked, haha. i know i shouldn't have done that.

Didnt do most of the above, but i had to really bite my tongue to keep myself from saying america this, america that. Didnt want to appear as a show off, you know. Solar just doesnt work in the morning and night. Took cold showers at first, which was a pain and then just stopped showering daily. Prefered to wear clothes again and again instead of washing with hands or making mom wash. etc etc etc
