Thanks for your VLOG. I've watched a few other treks to EBC from other couples. I enjoyed the honesty/realism of your videos. Nicely edited and the accompanying music was great. Keep up the great work. I'll have to check out some of your other journeys.
This has been SO MUCH FUN to watch your experience of hiking Everest Base Camp. I recently went to Nepal in September to do the EBC trek with a group of my friends and I loved being able to watch your videos and see all of the places we trekked through as well. The day we went from Dingboche to Lobuche was AWESOME!! We got lucky with the weather and were able to see all of the incredible, snow-capped mountains all around us. And we made sure to visit the world's highest bakery in Lobuche. Thanks for helping me re-live some of my Nepal trip through your videos!
Instead of taking two weeks to hike EBC I can see myself (at 62 years old) taking three or more weeks. I would hike fewer miles per day staying at more tea houses. I would have more off days. I would like to spend more time in the little villages mingling with the locals or trekkers and taking more of the short hikes during those off days. Do people do that. Any thoughts...
Hm I didn't really see people doing it, but it sounds as a really good plan! Staying in these villages is really nice and there are enough people around. Can be a great experience 😃👍
More days taken to acclimatise is good idea. In addition to physical, mental strength is essential. Age is a number if you are healthy enough to do this I guess.
Age is (mostly) just a number. The last time I hiked in Khumbu I was almost twice as fast at this couple, 2:30h Phortse to Pangpoche as an example, not 4 hours. I was 64 at the time and have artificial hips on both sides. Of course you can also go slow if you want to, but you might be able to go as fast as others also depending on you acclimatisation ability mostly, not age so much.
Hiked this trek in august one year, probably about 10years ago. Saw 10 people all the time i was on the trail from lukla and back. Just seeing so many people on the trail here would do my head in. Like a traffic jam. Most night i was the only one in the tea houses, was great. A tea owner showed my a picture of lobuche in April, holy schmokes it was like a roadside cafe. Ive also been in December over xmas, this is the best time to go, freezing cold, very few people, unreal views and a double room with hot shower and electric blankets was 20 us dollars, not 200.
It stil amazes me that the base camp is allreday at such altitude that if you go there by helicopter and stay a few days you just die. The hike to the camp is very important for acclimazation.
Love your videos! I have no idea how you managed to shoot such great sights while still hiking solo! Looking forward to your next video. P.S - I am 100% sure I saw the both of you in Katmandu earlier this year during my trip, I wish I could have walked up to you and told hello. Maybe soon!!
Great videos! Watched couple of them including packing items. Thanks for valuable information. Just one quick question - should we carry a small bag/daypack for EBC day (Gorakshep to EBC) Or you used same bigger bags while leaving stuff at tea house. Thanks ahead Shivam
Enjoyed the adventure. Really. In your place, I would have opted to movie-record the other person walking up and swap frequently, instead of having the camera on a tripod and having to walk back time and again. Music - piano, around 13 and 21 - what was that? Loved it.
Hey, Thank you, we are glad that you enjoyed the video. yeah, that can be a great idea but I don't trust people with how they will keep the frame of the video if I give them to film haha The piano music is: Croci by Jesse Brown
Great videos- thanks for making the effort to show us your journey. I'm going in November. Do you have details of the tea houses you stayed in / would recommend/ costs and facilities etc? thx
That's exciting! Hm the tea houses are pretty cheap! I believe we paid 500 rupees per night. They are all kind of the same, biggest difference is that some have private toilets and others shared! Mostly western toilets as well, but as you come higher the cleanliness becomes worse.. Food is everywhere amazing! There was just 1 tea house which was soo much better than the others, but that one will come in our upcoming video 😃
Nice weather!! Is it acceptable to camp on the EBC village? or do you saw any hiker bring the tent and camping there? cause I know that October is the peak season I'm afraid that the accomondation will be hard to find.
No I don’t think you can! I didn’t see anyone doing it and it would be to cold I guess. But we can almost not imagine you can’t find accommodation, there are so many beds!
Im curious how heavy your packs were. Did you weigh them? My husband and I are also doing this without a guide or porter. So we’re really trying to pack light!
Hey, Adi's pack was about 14.5kgs and Myra's was about 13kgs. We could have done under 10kgs but we had to carry all our filming and photography gear with us.
Beautifully shown the trails of ebc and happy that we found another couple who attempted phortse route like us ☺️ It’s very lesser known trail and very few people come but it’s worth as it will give you amazing view of different mountains peaks (including Everest) across their trail ! You can also check out our page hope you will also like our efforts ☺️
you r made foreach other couple. your sweet and cute wife is real better half. your sense of videography is superb capturing yourselfwith snow covered mountain in back ground adds beauty
I am so jealous of you guys, my partner and I used to hike like crazy in the US; after kids we don't go out that much. I guess a different phase of life has begun.
Watch our first (crazy) heavy days on the Everest Base Camp Trek!🇳🇵 ua-cam.com/video/dWtUFBfYW0A/v-deo.html
Was waiting for this finally ❤️

Great you did the hike!! It is so amazing 😄 happy to hear you like our videos!
Okay your videos are SO GOOD! Been watching them every morning with my coffee to get inspired for future adventures!
Thank you Dasha, we are glad you are enjoying the videos 😃🙏
Super mooi! We hebben EBC in 2019 gedaan. Jullie video brengt mooie herinneringen weer terug!
Danjkewel Dewi :)
Welcome to Nepal 🇳🇵 n enjooooy … n namaste 🙏
Discovered you guys recently. You do it so well. Always interesting. Love your way of doing and showing things.
Thank you so much Simon 😃

Exactly something that I have in mind too !! Hope someday soon !!

If you get a private tour they will give you whatever kind of tour u like that why I’ve choose private instead of group
Love your videos! Hope I can make it to EBC this year. Could you share what mic you used in these videos? The quality is amazing
watching from tropical it feels soothing!!!!!🤩 btw what's that for at 8:39. ?
Its solar heater for warming water.
It is a solar cooker, they were boiling potatoes in this one
Congratulations both of you for long trek to Everest Base Camp.
Thank you Arnab :)
Great job! Thanks so much for sharing!!
Thanks Dan, Glad you enjoyed the video :)
Please make a video on budget of this trip at the end of this series.
Yes, we will make it soon :)
@@LetsMeetAbroad thank you ✌️
Hats off you Myra & Adi 👍🙏🏼🌸🌻🌼 sending love and blessing from Mauritius
Thank you!! ☺️
You two are beautiful couple. Lot’s of love from Nepal.
Thank you Gyan :)
Great to see people choosing the more impressive High Scenic Trail via Phortse instead of just hiking through Tengboche twice!
Hiked this trek in august one year, probably about 10years ago. Saw 10 people all the time i was on the trail from lukla and back. Just seeing so many people on the trail here would do my head in.

Yep August is super low season. But we didn’t think that the crowds was a big problem. For days we walked all by ourselves
Jst started today watching ur channel .. Its awesome .. and welcome to Nepal onces again .. I hope u had a wonderful stay here ❤️

Thank you so much Bishok, we are glad you enjoyed the video :)
Love your attitude good job on the video.
Thank you 😊
Allow me a question: when you refer to a room price, does that mean per person ?
Did you each pay 500 NPR?
Great Vlog
Thank you Santosh
It stil amazes me that the base camp is allreday at such altitude that if you go there by helicopter and stay a few days you just die. The hike to the camp is very important for acclimazation.
Congratulations 👏 great video

You guys made us inspiration to visit mt Everest
Thank you :)
which program you are using to show the mountain route ?
Its called Alltrais
Great videos! Watched couple of them including packing items. Thanks for valuable information.
Just one quick question - should we carry a small bag/daypack for EBC day
(Gorakshep to EBC) Or you used same bigger bags while leaving stuff at tea house.
Thanks ahead
Shivam
Thank you!! ☺️ No you should really not take an extra smaller bag!! Just empty your big bag and take that one, it’s all good!
@@LetsMeetAbroad thanks much for prompt response! Surely follow:)
Love from NEPAL ❤
Well done
Beautiful video 😍☺️
