Kathmandu and Village Home Stay
... some houses so far away from the school that going there every morning seemed like a hike. Our host families were great. For Paige and me personally was great because our host mom didn't have any daughters or sisters so she was so excited to have us there she hugged us and kissed us all the time. When we woke up the next morning we got some chai in bed. That was so amazing. And then we had to go to school to start with the project.

Nepal Trek - Day 2 Bhulbhule to Chyamche

Annapurna Base Camp Trek - Day Five
... around us, with the western glacier snaking downwards directly below the ridge we were standing on.
I stayed up there by myself until 7.30am when the sun was high enough to reach over the tops of the mountains and on top base camp. It was a lovely feeling with the sun on your face after being frozen for the previous two hours. All my kit worked fantastically well, except my knock-off North Face gloves which weren't so good. I simply couldn't stop taking ...
