As a travel entrepreneur, I along with my team have put an effort to compile all the time lapses created on our way to Annapurna base camp. If you like the video please share and let the world know Nepal is safe to travel.

Most of the travelers dwelling in Nepal or getting ready to get in the country are probably or not aware that this nation has just been rocked by the quake of decade or even may be century. If you are travelling for the first time or travelling over, there are few things and places changed and may not be similar or even familiar as seen in your last visit or as seen on the pictures or even on the internet. The rubble is cleaned and majority of fragile dwelling is demolished but still you would be able to see old structures with noticeable fractures standing with the external support of either metal or wooden pillars. Few things like such will remain as it is for quite a long time and if you are travelling to Nepal in July or onwards until next year at least, you may be lucky enough to witness what earthquake has left us with! The first on my list is the ancient Palace courtyards known as Durbar squares. Durbar squares are open and welcoming travelers but I recommend you to keep t...

There is no as such as best time of the year to visit Nepal but there are certain things that one wishes to do in the country which is available only at certain times of the year. Let’s not brag about the fact that it can be visited year around like an entrepreneur who would convey couple of lies to get guests to visit the country at anytime of the year and stick to the ground reality. The best is either before the monsoon which is spring or after the monsoon which is fall. My favorite is the month where I can go around places on half sleeve. Why do people talk a lot about visiting Nepal in these seasons? Let me break it down although it may not be a new thing for a lot of you folks reading this blog. The primary reason behind tourist flocking in Nepal in the months of March – May which I have already mentioned as spring season and September - December which is fall season is for the clear views of one of the tallest peaks even from distant hill stations. Primary reasons also...

Everyone has their own favorites when it comes to seeing places and doing things and so do I. I am a big time foodie and a travel junkie and nothing stops me from munching around and nothing forbids me from the places I like to visit time and again, not even a 7.8 magnitude earthquake. 1.       The first on my list is mountain flights and it reserves a top spot on my list for the reason that it is an absolute stunner. The first time I had a seat right behind the pilot and copilot on a small aircraft which offered me a wide angle view of Himalayas stretched as far as India was awe-inspiring. It was 2010 that I had decided I would do mountain flight every once in a while if I had the shekels and luckily I have done is thrice since then. 2.       Walking around Durbar squares is another favorite Saturday fixation. I have had best times around these monument as a kid and visited them in field visits from schools very recurrently ...

This as usual again happened over night, I had no plans to visit or travel yet I did and I guess that’s what’s “call of the mountains” means is!! It was immediately after the biggest Nepalese festival Dashain, one of my cousins, popped in at my home. We had dinner and we were watching T.V, that’s when he had a call and he was explaining what he has already packed for the trip and is ready to leave as early as possible. As its in we Nepalese blood to intervene in anyone’s business, I asked him, where he is headed for?? He quickly replied, I have couple week’s long break, so escaping this hustle and bustle for a week, may be to Mustang, more precisely “Muktinath”. I was explaining my cousin how I wanted to go with him but cant because mum was going to India and cannot leave the house and dog by itself. As soon as I dropped my words to my cousin, came a phone call to my mom saying her trip to India has been postponed for the reason that the train tickets have been postponed. I went to...

The day that I almost got killed by Rolling Stone I  saw my entire life in a split second, I saw a mother crying upon the dead corpse of the only son, I saw all the goods that I had done in my entire lifetime, most important I recalled all the sins that I had committed knowingly and unknowingly, my childhood, my close friends, my sister and my deceased father. There was nothing that I didn’t remember on the day that I almost got killed by Rolling Stone. It was November of 2014; I had a phone call early in the morning, around 6 am from one of my partners at Wonderful Everest view treks and expeditions, who wanted me to assist our guests with the trekking in Manaslu Tsum valley. Without a second thought I agreed to chip in as it had been long since I said hello to my mountains. It was 23 rd of November and I was rushing to make all the permits ready, as the process was very manual and I was unaware of it, it was 24 th until we made all the required permits. Bags packed,...
