Upon landing at Tribhuvan International Airport after eight long years, I was finally at   home. I was so overwhelmed with joy and happiness that I had   to literally fight off tears. Despite the lingering jet lag, I was on my toes the very next day. I decided   going back   to the same familiar place   I frequently visited as a sports reporter.
