I think Harry would do this even if he had a family, and I think he will marry the sort of woman who would either applaud him for doing it and encourage him in it, or accompany him with their children. William has choofed off to Kenya for the holidays, leaving his wife and young children at home while he attends an ex-girlfriend's wedding, so I don't think having a family stops him from doing what he wants.

If Harry has spare time on his hands he should be rebuilding houses in the UK, there are thousands of people without homes because of the floods and could use the help.
His tour ended. Him staying on is his own decision but I guess Nepal provides a better storyline and photo-ops than Cumbria

I agree, Roslyn. I think Harry will hopefully marry an adventurous and enterprising young woman. She and their children will love Africa as much as he does and support Sentable and the other charities Harry does so much for with enthusiasm and a genuine commitment. As you probably know, Team Rubicon UK is involved in assisting those people who were flooded in Cumbria and Yorkshire. Nepal though really needs all the help it can get and Harry will undoubtedly do his bit there. I hope he becomes a patron of UK Rubicon, actually!

Good for team Rubicon UK for helping out in Cumbria. Poor show on Harry for deciding it's a better photo-op to 'rebuild' in Nepal than to help out tax-payers in the UK

Great story in the Katmandu Post you gave the link for, Polyesco, especially about Harry walking three hours to get to the village. He must have been footsore!

I cant believe some of the posts on here.
Harry does not fly in support of sick/ill people
William does not try and help businesses in flood hit Cumbria by supporting tourism
Charles does not build a school in Tibet.
But each of them is doing good work for a range of communities and causes.
We should appreciate that they all d good work.

I'm on my phone at the moment so I cannot "thank" you, therefore I will thank you in a written way. I had guessed that was the case, but just wanted to be certain. I liked Harry's photos, I wonder if he shares Catherine's interest in photography, although it's quite natural of course to take photos whilst on trips, whether you like photography or not.

I do seem to recall Harry and William helping the flood victims in England a year ago when they went with the military to add more sandbags and flood defences to areas.
I didn't think Harry would get the criticism he has for doing this work with the charity - i think it is something quite admiral and we are lucky to have him in the British royal family. Searching to recall when the royals (british or foreign) have done similar things like what Harry is doing in Nepal ........

One thing, other than the actual physical labor rebuilding the school, that Harry will have accomplished by remaining in Nepal with Team Rubicon is to draw attention to this fabulous charity which I had never heard of before this tour. I can definitely see Harry adding this worthwhile organization to a spot in his heart where he carries those things he cares about most.
I'm sure also, that he's had a fantastic time and really enjoyed being just "one of the guys" and doing something very worthwhile.

I think the beard is here to stay now! Harry's done a fine job in Nepal and will have fond memories I'm sure. Hope he becomes patron of Rubicon UK.

Team Rubicon is very cool, very worthy IMO.
