I fly to Hong Kong on Sept. 29,
hang out there for a couple days then fly to Kathmandu, Nepal.
After I arrive I'll be going to through a crash course in Nepali language and customs and then I'll be sent to one of three different orphanages that are located througout Nepal. After about a month and a half at the orphanage I'll be flying to Lukla.
From Lukla I'll be hiking for two weeks which will take me all the way to the base camp of Everest.
Then I'll fly back to Kathmandu, stay there for a couple days then to Hong Kong, another two days there and home. Roughly two months in all.I hope that I can keep this journal updated as I go. Feel free to check in periodically and check out my posts. Internet access might be sparse as I travel outside of the main tourist routes but I'll be keeping a paper journal and whenever I get a chance I'll transpose it to the web.
