Asia, particularly the Indian culture, has always fascinated me. Admittedly, I'd never looked into Nepal much, and it was a French movie which took place in Kathmandu that first piqued my interest in actually travelling there someday.
One thing led to another, and a couple months later, I was looking at volunteering programs, one of which featured the chance to discover Nepali culture as well as taking care of children. It immediately sounded like something I would enjoy, and it truly was!
