Bye Bye Nepal

Flying in Nepal is a experience just like everything else. Due to the weather changing all the time flights do get delayed a lot. We were lucky leaving Pokhara as we only had a short delay. I am not the best flyer and flying in Nepal is pretty scary at times. The clouds are low …

Annapurna Base Camp Part One

Day 11 (continued) We were on a flight and in Pokhara in the blink of a eye. MK was very quiet, our guide was still smiling and I was trying to keep conversation going. It was just soul destroying after a year of dedication that we were not even going to attempt the Everest Base …

Kathmandu.

The time had final come for us to leave Sydney for and start our trip around Nepal. Day 1. The first leg of our flight was 14 hours long to Dubai. We only had a two hour gap between flights. After a bit of a rush to the correct terminal for our flight to Kathmandu …

Final…Nepal Health Update.

One plus to living in Sydney is there is never a long weekend to far away. The June long weekend for the Queen's Birthday (we don't even have this off in England) is just around the corner. I am staying in Sydney for this long week... I decided to put a list of some of …

Solo Travel

I don't think I have talked about Solo Vs Group travel before I arrived in Australia. It is the famous question among backpackers is it better to travel on your own or with people? I have traveled both ways. I went to the Dominican Republic on my own and met up with  people I had …

To Ski or Not to Ski

Taking a break from Nepal blogs this week and decided to talk about snow. Winter hit this weekend, the sweat pants came out and the summer wardrobe was packed away. Not going to lie, it was very nice leaving the house Saturday night not in a ball of sweat from blow drying and straighten my …

This year MK and I decided to not go home but to go on a trip. We both work full time so the maximum time we could get off was a month. Our work have given us both a month off in September...now we just had to decide on a destination. I am 30 MK …
