Senior Trek Leader

Born in a Sherpa village in Solukhumbu, they have walked to Everest Base Camp more than fifty times and know the teahouse owners along the way by name.

They check every traveller's oxygen saturation twice a day above Namche and are trained to spot the early signs of altitude sickness.

Slow is fast at altitude. The people who enjoy the trek most are the ones who never rush it.
