We're in civilization! My mom's and my three week trek around Mt. Manaslu was amazing. We saw some breathtaking scenery (and the climbs took our breath away, too), made great new friends, trudged through a lot of snow, ate a small mountain of dahl bhat (rice with lentils), and even managed to play a few (well, more than 20) games of Scrabble.
Although there were some hard hikes, my true challenge was remembering to write down recollections of the fun times we had. For the first time since about sixth grade, I actually kept a daily journal. I'm hoping to get some stories from the trail up on this blog soon, but I have a feeling it's going to take me a few days.
For now, we're safe and sound in Pokhara, Nepal's second largest city and eating as much delicious, non-trail food as we can get our hands on. We'll spend a few days seeing the sights here and in Kathmandu before heading back to San Francisco on April 3!
This Month: Living, working, and having adventures in and around Denver, CO (2013).
See where I've been.
Big Picture: After 19 months of work in China and play in Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, India, and Nepal, I'm back in the States!
