Me in my pyjamas! The evenings are getting so cold, especially in the bedrooms, so last night I had a sleeping bag liner, sleeping bag, blanket, 2 tops, a coat, and fleece bottoms when going to bed! I can confirm though, I was not cold when I was sleeping!

This mornings view…

Me and some cows all ready for a 16km hike…

The sunrise this morning was beautiful in Koto, I didn’t get a picture but I did get a few snaps of the village before we left.


The hike today was beautiful- tougher than expected at times! We walked for 5.5 hours and reached 3300m altitude.

Near the start of the journey we stopped at Bhratang Apple Farm, the second biggest Apple farm in Asia. Here we got some fresh apple juice and apple muffins that were still warm they were so fresh! (Not as good as Auntie Anne’s obviously but the nearest thing to home baked goods I have seen yet!)




The trail today was a mix of ‘roads’, walking through trees, over rivers and some climbing.
Just before we reached our destination for the day for stopped to take a drink and take in another great view!
I am currently in Upper Pisang. Tonight’s room! Looks cute, apart from not holding in any heat!!


After a well earned rest, we took a climb up to a new monastery that has been built in the area. Here is a view from the top!


Time for dinner and bed now before another day of trekking tomorrow!
