Iris A. (March 2013 Trek)

I have been thinking and dreaming about the trip. It sure had a profound effect on me. I came with somewhat different expectations to what I found and it has been a journey of discovery for me. Nature helped me connect to myself. I treasure those moments of walking in solitude in the woods. Free of western distractions, my thoughts and feelings had raw and true quality. 

The people of Nepal and their living conditions have been a lesson in humility. The beautiful, curious and smiling children have touched my heart. I am grateful to have been a part of such a versatile group whose members are all good people. I am fortunate to have made a deep connection with my group members and the local people. As for my eating habits - I find myself craving Dal Bhat!
