Today’s guest has quite the life story. Born in a remote village in the far west of Nepal, At the age of 7, Sushil went for a walk beyond the hills that surrounded his village and a few months later found himself homeless, living on the streets of Kathmandu.

Sushil’s story of street living, his time in an orphanage and his perspective on volunteers that want to help children like him is invaluable. It’s Sushil’s and my hope that by sharing his story, we can amplify the voices of other children and adults who have been on the receiving end of people’s good intentions to support children in orphanages and through that, change the way we care for vulnerable children.

Sushil is listening to the suite of VICE podcasts.
