  • Yeah, a little. But only around the Annapurna Circuit trip. Mainly because it was my first trip. By the time I got to Everest Base Camp & Tibet, I was fine. Just take your time and drink heaps of water. I mainly had headaches. Bhutan sounds cool. Must be less than 10000m though, because Everest is 8850m. Good luck

  • Hi Nathan. Thanks for posting. Your trip looks fantastic! Did you experience altitude sickness of any sorts when you were in Tibet or Everest Camp? Just curious. I may go to Nepal/India this year. But also contemplating on the Bhutan trip via intrepid too. I hear its 10,000 meters above sea level! whoo! Tips welcome!!

  • @tsorrosa

    Different people have different reactions to attitude. Some people have difficulty below 3000m and even at 1500m if they aren't used to it. You probably mean 10,000 feet above sea level as Everest is 8848m

  • loved the still to video photography. What was all the monk handslapping about? I hope to do one of their trips next year.

  • the monks were debating. It a way of learning their religion, they ask each other questions and they try and answer them.

  • Listening to Tibetans talking freely about Tibet can give you a good understanding of a complicated country.

  • nicely done. thanks for compiling. what is this

    helo evac you allude to? medical difficulties?

    is this Intrepid travel folks out of Australia?

  • The King of Nepal ordered daytime curfews and transport strikes, due to the Maoist attacks. So we couldn't take the bus, only way was to fly. Cool aye. Thanks for your comment

  • Yes, "Intrepid Travel" are Aussie based, but their trips cover the world. Highly recommend.
