Testimonials

This was a memorable trip indeed, one that we shall never forget and shall cherish for the rest of our lives.   We had our highs and lows but most of all we all supported each other.   While we started as complete strangers, each with a desire to contribute for a good cause as well as to take on a mental and physical challenge, we ended up building lovely friendships and forming a solid unit.   We had all left our lives behind us.   On these mountains  there was no managing director, sale manager, financial analyst, HR director, architect,school master, dentist, project manager, there was simply a group of genuine people with a common goal of reaching the base camp.

I have never imagined in my life that in such a short 14 days one can make up a family because this is what exactly we have become.  Each with different backgrounds we still shared great moments and experienced together the magic of Nepal's amazing nature, the Nepali's amazingly friendly people and their great resilience to hardship conditions.  

We go back to our daily luxurious lives and routine, whereas they will continue to live in sub zero temperatures under constant difficult  deer conditions, still having  garlic soup and all types of rice....
