15 Things To Remember Trekking In The Himalaya

To take a break from narrating the day-to-day happenings of my Everest Base Camp trek, I have decided to share some of the things that I would recommend keeping in mind while trekking in the Himalaya (or probably countless other places as well). Despite everything I thought I knew prior to
