Important note:
We are going to walk close to 25 kilometers in 3 days and will be reaching altitudes as high as 10,000 - 11,000 feet. The trip will not be easy due to altitude, and so this is strictly NOT for first time trekkers, physically less fit or people with pre-medical conditions or breathing issues.
If you find yourself a fit to this journey: Everyone can visit loud countries where they have fun, dancing clubs & party all night. But when its a chance to see the Himalayas closest, it is a calling. And that calling is named NEPAL.
For seekers of culture, mountains, basic tea stays with zero network and meaning, from the shadows of Mount Everest to the sacred calm of the breeze. For travelers ready to slow down, breathe deep, and experience Nepal with Gypsy Souls.
