Before embarking on the challenge of crossing our first high mountain pass we had to make sure to properly acclimatize to the altitude. If you don't take the time to properly acclimatize you could easily become affected by altitude sickness. Symptoms of mild altitude sickness can include headaches, vomiting, tiredness, confusion, trouble sleeping, and dizziness. It is important to take that extra time because it is not to be taken lightly and it could very easily end your trip early. The tiny settlement seen in this photo is the village of Lungden. It was our last night of acclimatization before climbing up and over our first pass and our first time over 5000 meters or 16404 feet. We met some amazing people in the teahouse that night. We sipped ginger and honey tea, played cards and got to know one another around the fire. Some of them joined us for the remainder of our trek and others are still friends until this day. This photograph was taken just after sunrise. Taking one last look back, knowing that we were ready for the obstacles that lay ahead.

In 2017, my girlfriend and I embarked on a 5 week journey through Nepal. During that time we spent 19 days trekking through the Everest region. We covered almost 300 kilometers, went over 3 mountain passes, 2 glaciers and reached heights of 5600 meters (18373 feet). We did the whole trek without the use of a guide or porter. I found the sense of adventure and accomplishment of doing it completely on our own to be super rewarding. We stayed in teahouses in tiny Nepalese villages along the way. Eating our fair share of dal bhat and noodle dishes, sitting around fireplaces fueled by yak dung. It was a trip that will forever resonate with me and I will for sure be returning someday, in the hopefully not so distant future.
This mini collection of 6 photographs marks some of my favorite views we experienced on our journey.
