If you've been dreaming of standing at the foot of the world's highest peak, now's the time. The trekking to Everest Base Camp is calling, and it's not going to wait for you to finish your Netflix binge.
🏔️ Why You Should Go
Every year, over 30,000 trekkers make the journey to Everest Base Camp, covering approximately 130 kilometers. It's a moderate challenge, not a walk in the park, but with the right preparation, it's achievable for most.
🧗♂️ My First-Time Experience
As a first-time trekker, I was both excited and nervous. The path was challenging, but the breathtaking views and the camaraderie of fellow trekkers made every step worth it. Reaching the base camp felt like a dream come true.
🕒 Why Now?
The trek is becoming more popular each year. If you wait, you might find yourself in a crowd instead of the serene mountainside you imagine. Plus, with the changing climate, the landscape is evolving.
