We’ll fly from
Kathmandu to lukla
airport (get ready
for a real nail-biter
landing, my friend!)
and trek to
Everest Base Camp.
We’ll walk in slowly so
your body can get used
to the altitude.
We’ll Stay In
“teahouses”
(little hotels that
serve meals) in
these Villages.
Then it’s on to
Everest Base Camp,
where we’ll stay a week
before our first climb.
