@fraught Yeap! I'm planning a trip there in October. Hopefully I can do a video of our trek! :) Any tips, are trekking poles available in Kathmandu or Pokhara, do you know how much they cost?
@Topnutter Not sure on costs... but if you aren't taking much out, you can buy most things pretty cheaply in Pokhara (assuming you are starting there?). I took a trekking pole out with me that also acts as a Monopod for my camera... worked a treat! :-)
@fraught Ah so things are much cheaper in Pokhara vs Kathmandu? I'll be flying to Kathmandu before heading to Pokhara haha. Hopefully my tour agency will provide us with trekking poles they promised :P

At each hotel/motel, are there charging ports? What kind of adapters do they use?

@Topnutter Most have them power points these days, and it's the usual European 2 pin style. Are you heading off there?

Scared the spider!?!? Surely the other way around? ;-)

Thanks for watching.

Ditto... its hard to explain how difficult and painful it was to get there. But boy was it worth every step!
