P. 64

Human trafficking is a $150 billion dollar global industry and two thirds of that
           money comes from the sexual exploitation of women. SASANE is an NGO in Nepal,
           run by survivors of human trafficking, who help rescue and rehabilitate other
           young girls who have been trafficked for sexual exploitation or domestic servitude,
           teaching them job skills so they can go on to lead independent, dignified and free
           lives. This is a collection of their favourite dishes and all proceeds of this book
           goes directly back to SASANE so they can continue their important work to help
           end human trafficking in Nepal.

                                             many countries both for work and pleasure. Travelling is
                                             her biggest passion and Nepal holds a special place in
                                             her heart not only for the spectacular scenery of the
                                             Himalayan mountains but also the people, who are
                                             some of the kindest and most genuine people she has
                                             met. Carolyn volunteered for SASANE in 2016 and was
                                             immensely moved by the women’s strength and
                                             dedication, working tirelessly to end the trafficking of
                                             young girls in Nepal.
