Tawoche 2k10 dispatches #1

Its 5:45 a.m. and Renan and I are up and throwing the last of the goods into barrels and duffels. What stays? What goes? Where are my shoes?

Our days in Kathmandu have been gooda productive and creative time to sink back into Nepali culture before getting on a plane to fly into the mountains. There is no doubt it is time to get out of the city and up into the hills. The flight to Lukla is a time-warpyou get on the plane surrounded by the amenities of modern life and 45 minutes later, after landing on a super sketchy runway that angles steeply uphill, find yourself surrounded only by trails, monasteries and deep gorges. No more car horns and pollutionits sick!

The motivation and creativity are running thick and Renan and I are busting at the seams to capture our trip and bring everyone back home alongits good to be here, but the extended tribe is never far from our thoughts.
