I was fourteen when I carried my first load as a porter in the Annapurna region. I earned eighty rupees a day and carried thirty-five kilos on my back. On that first trek, a client gave me a hundred-dollar tip. I had never seen that much money before, and it made me think I could build my life in these mountains.
I could not speak English then, so I bought some old English books and practiced in front of a mirror every day. In 2002, I became a licensed guide, and in 2010, I started Mountain World Treks & Expedition.
Over 10,000 trekkers who've trusted Mountain World Treks to guide their Himalayan adventure safely and unforgettably.
