What is the best way for the average person to authentically experience the world's greatest mountain range - the Himalayas? Fortunately, there is now a good answer. The Annapurna Circuit in Nepal is the most popular footpath in Asia. Its genius lies in its design. Trekkers wind their way around and along some of the world's greatest peaks, ultimately getting near 18,000 feet, without ever having to do any 'technical climbing'.

In search of adventure, 29-year-old Conor Grennan traded his day job for a year-long trip around the globe, a journey that began with a three-month stint volunteering at the Little Princes Children's Home, an orphanage in war-torn Nepal. Conor was initially reluctant to volunteer, unsure whether he had the proper skill, or enough passion, to get involved in a developing country in the middle of a civil war. But he was soon overcome by the herd of rambunctious, resilient children.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 14
Join Gordon Alexander in Nepal as he drags his "heavy ass" over the Himalayas in this hilarious, adventure-soaked account of the Three Passes Trek, culminating in a visit to Everest Base Camp. Together with guide Subash and porter Nima, Gordon tackles high passes in excess of 5,400 meters (17,700 feet) and explains how high altitude affects a mildly overweight road builder from sea level in the tropics. Each part of the journey brings new challenges, including sub-freezing temperatures, almost falling into a crevasse, and alarmingly warm beer.

As the climb proceeds, Matthiessen charts his inner path as well as his outer one.

Informative but somewhat shallow
Useful quick read or listen if you are visiting Nepal. Helps understand what a wonderful country this is with its diverse cultures and communities. Always useful to get some quick tips to help navigate places and people, but having visited Nepal several times I wanted more depth to understand issues of ethnicity, caste, politics, history... even the food, natural environment. This book is pitched at first time visitors and tourists, and certainly covers some useful background, information, and insights.
Such guides need to be kept pretty up-to-date to serve this purpose... hope there are plans to do so @audible and associated publishers.
