1 Month to go before our Himlung Expedition!

We are now exactly 1 month away from the departure for Kathmandu, Nepal and I had planned to start the blog exactly one month before so today is the day!
We are in the final preparation moments:
- vaccination
- packing our gigantic 110 to 150L duffle bags full of crazy mountain gear
- checking the latest news on Nepal
- whatsapping each other our latest questions and answers

Our Team (more info on each of use will come at a later point):
Patrick Koslowski - Swiss
Xavier Perrodon - French
Benjamin Grenon - French
Glenn Johnson - British
Michael Griffiths - British

Last night I went to see the latest 'Everest' movie with Lars in Hong Kong. Its a really good movie. It is a sad story but also one of courage and strength and the photography of the movie is stunning.

An important announcement:
We have decided to raise money for charity through this expedition. The idea is to give some awareness to our project and generate some funds to donate towards Nepal's recovery efforts. Check out our charity page at indiegogo
