Travel Day 1054 – Pokhara, NEPAL When I went trekking this year, for the first time of my life I came across a tiny but vicious predator that I never had to deal with before: Vampire-Worms! The Last time I went trekking in Nepal was about two years ago and I did so in the […]
Travel Day 1051-53 – Pokhara, NEPAL Even if I didn’t like the Lakeside area of Pokhara that much, after the past two days on the sketchy road, it was really good to be back in civilization… Actually when I woke up the first morning after my trek and went for a little stroll down the […]
Travel Day 1050 – Complete Mustang Trek, NEPAL 19/19 Tatopani via Beni and Baglung to Pokhara (820) Actually today was a better day, but when I woke up in dampness and rain I thought nothing might be different from yesterday… When I was in Tatonani about two weeks ago, it was really hot and sunny, […]
Travel Day 1049 – Complete Mustang Trek, NEPAL 18/19 Kagbeni via Jomsom and Ghasa to Tatopani (1190) When I woke up this morning to the sound of falling rain, I knew immediately that this day would turn out differently that I had initially expected… My idea had been to enjoy an extended breakfast at the […]

Travel Day 1016 – Extended Langtang Trek, NEPAL 07/15 Riverside via Ghodatabela and Chyamki to Langtang (3430) The night in the valley by the loudly running river had been pretty freezing and in the morning instead of sun, there was only chilly dampness… So far we had always very nice sunrises and great views in […]
Travel Day 1015 – Extended Langtang Trek, NEPAL 06/15 Khanjim via Sherpagaon and Lama Hotel to Riverside (2770) It was our last morning on the Tamang Heritage Trek and it was our last stay in a traditional Tamang Village, because from now on we would be continuing our walk along the Langtang Valley Trek… So […]
Travel Day 1014 – Extended Langtang Trek, NEPAL 05/15 Timure via Tibet Border and Briddhim to Khanjim (2240) Luckily today my stomach was feeling better again, but instead of heaving breakfast in the morning, we had something better to do anyway: we walked as early as possible to Rasuwagadhi, the border with Tibet… Two years […]
Travel Day 1013 – Extended Langtang Trek, NEPAL 04/15 Nagthali via Thuman and Dalphedi to Timure (1760) After a terrible night of freezing cold and stomach sickness, paired with a crazy loud thunderstorm outside, we had a little bit of a slow start of the day and we decided to rather take it easy today… […]
Travel Day 1012 – Extended Langtang Trek, NEPAL 03/15 Gonggang via Tatopani and Brimdang to Nagthali (3170) We woke up at 6am again with some nice valley views while the sun was rising behind the mountains and only a fresh Tibetan bread with honey later, we were on the trail again, climbing up higher… As […]
Travel Day 1011 – Extended Langtang Trek, NEPAL 02/15 Goljung La via Gatlang and Thanbuchet to Gonggang (2230) Our first night of the Tamang Heritage Trek was nice and cozy in the little wood-paneled room and we made sure be up at 6am again to see our first sunrise over the mountain tops… Actually we […]
