Thank you Brigitte. And… DO IT! Go to the front page and find the post a Lukla that my elder one wrote today, it’s not really finished yet, we have to tidy it up and make a video. But this is why. His words, his appreciation.

I never really gave too much though about going to Everest, or Nepal for that matter. I’ve been reading your blogs and getting more and more intrigued. I’m not an avid hiker to this extent, even though I love a good scenic hike, but you’ve put the bug in my ear that maybe one day I’ll make it to Nepal and catch a glimpse of Everest. Thank you and keep being a Mom that shows her kids the world in real life!

We’ve been through Russia, past Lake Baikal on the Trans Siberian many years ago. And likewise, that Tivbet trek is hugh on the list! I started a Facebook group, Trekking Travel, but I’ve been neglecting it. If you’d like to hop on over there we can talk trekking.

The mountains of Tien Shan are fascinating. I have been there a few times (I have good friends who live in Almaty (the financial capital of Kazakhstan) so I go there each year and also to Russia where I also have good friends. I have been twice to Lake Baikal – an amazingly beautiful lake. Unfortunately there doesn’t seem any way I can share some photos with you. In the countries of the former Soviet Union it helps to speak some Russian although I have come across English speakers in the strangest of places there.

I want to go to Everest Base Camp and maybe Advanced Base Camp from the Chinese side and also to the Antarctic.

My boys went to Base Camp last year Alan and this year we’re taking on K2. The elder one, he’s 14 now, fairly raced up to Base Camp, my 11-12 year old with shorter legs held back with me, I’m 52, not so fit. But for all of us it was fabulous. I’d love to see the Central Asian countries you mention, but this year Pakistan is on and maybe a return to Tibet.
