Arida AdamouNepal travel specialistI first visited India and Nepal in 1994. India was my first stop on a round-the-world trip and Nepal my next destination. After nearly 3, amazing and slightly overwhelming months, in India, I made my way overland from Varanasi across the border to Nepal. I was worried that my fascination and love of India would lead to me to be disappointed in Nepal, but this was definitely not the case!There was a noticeable change of pace and atmosphere on arrival in Kathmandu. In my opinion it feels less chaotic and the general ‘hassle factor’ is lower than in some Indian cities. After a few hours in Nepal I soon stopped comparing and contrasting as Nepal has its own identity and its own kind of magic. My main reason for visiting was to do some trekking, but I happily spent more than a week visiting amazing temples, drinking cocktails and just hanging out in a variety of cafes, bars and restaurants. My friends and I organized our own trek in the foothills of the Annapurna from Pokhara. We did get a little lost and it was hard carrying all our stuff on our backs. In retrospect it would have been great to have a local guide and our own porter!! I have lasting memories of crystal clear mornings with the amazing, almost unreal, back-drop of snow-capped peaks and many, many photos should I ever forget! |
Haydn WrathCompany directorI have spent many years travelling and have been to every continent. Nepal however is my favourite country. The thing that stands out for me is the raw beauty of the Himalayas and the fantastic experience of trekking there.The daily life of trekking, far away from roads, computers and mobile phone signals, through stunning and ever changing scenery, in and out of picturesque villages, for me is incredibly exhilarating. It is also a humbling country to travel through. As you pass through each village, despite having very little, people seem to be content and happy. This is especially true of the children who put most western kids to shame. You will get fit, lose weight, breath the freshest air in the world, eat simple but great food, have great old fashioned conversations in the guest houses, go to bed and get up early, and sleep like a log. Best of all you will also meet other trekkers who, like you are infected with Himalayan effervescence. |
