November has crept up on me very fast and I’m now in my last week before more adventures begin. This is the point where my mind can’t stop thinking about everything that I need to do before I go, and so, as usual, I’m running around like a mad chook, and, as usual, probably unnecessarily. This is also the point where I realise how far behind I am in my blogging and start rushing out blog posts before discarding them due to being too rushed. That being said, hopefully you will get some more Paris posts very soon.
Anyway, that brings me to telling you about what I’m getting up to over the next month.
Best man duties
I’m going to be packing something very strange into my pack this trip – a suit! Ok, I probably won’t shove it in my backpack, but I do have to bring it with me. My oldest Brother is getting married and I am to be the best man, so as soon as November hits I will be boarding a plane back to Perth for the wedding and some very rushed family visits and celebrations. I’ll be in Perth for a total of 3 days.
Return to Nepal – my most epic trek yet
On the 5th of November, very early in the morning, I’ll be hopping on a flight to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, where I will spend the night, and the following day I will catch another flight to Kathmandu, Nepal. My return to this amazing country is long overdue – it will have been 6 years since I trekked to Everest Base Camp (what?!). This time I am attempting a much larger trek and I won’t be doing it alone – I am taking my Dad along with me. I’ve always wanted to take him on a trip after all of the amazing adventures that he took me on as a kid, and I couldn’t think of a better place than Nepal, a country he has never been to.
When I first went to Nepal I did the typical Everest Base Camp trek from Lukla to EBC return, which from memory was about 13 days. This trip I am returning to the Khumbu region but will trek for 24 days, over 300km from Jiri to Everest Base Camp and Kala Pattar, via the beautiful Gokyo Lakes and a traverse of the Cho La Pass.
This will be the longest trek I have done by far. We will be taking it nice and slow, and will have help with a guide and porter. It is going to be a hell of a challenge in one of the most beautiful places on earth. I am very much looking forward to it, and I can’t wait to be doing it all with my old man. I think this will be a special trip for the both of us.
Being that I will be high up in the Himalayas for most of next month, I won’t be online very much (another thing that I am looking forward to) but I will try and make updates as often as I can, so make sure to follow along on Facebook and Instagram 🙂
Here’s to more adventures!
I have been to Nepal, and trust me the best place in Nepal was the beautiful temple in Kathmandu and the awesome valley of Pokhara. It was indeed beautiful.
Hi Tom. I’m hoping to get to Pokhara on my next trip. Everyone says it is very beautiful.
Nepal is amazing place to Adventure tour…I hope you enjoy your Adventure trip Best of Luck!
Thank you!
