Trips and Travel
-
@Denman-John I was there on a trip with my church so we didn't do any of the typical treks. We hiked to some remote villages in Gyangphedi and Gorkha. Then we went to Pokhara and hiked to the Australian basecamp for Annapurna. It was very smokey and cloudy when we were there though so didn't get great views unfortunately. Pokhara was a cool town with a lake. We got to explore Kathmandu with some of our local contacts also which was such an experience, like nothing else I have ever seen! One of the guys let me ride his motorcycle through the streets and it was total chaos and so much fun! Glad it was peaceful when we were there, such terrible stuff that happened recently.
Not sure if you have been there before, but the airport was also a bit of a chore to fly out of. I think I heard they only have one runway for international flights so we ended up sitting in the plane for like 2.5 hours before taking off. Was still a great experience to go!
