Himalayas

The trek to  Mt. Everest was certainly ‘one-in-the-lifetime’ trip: 6 days, ~100 km hiked, ~5,000 m elevation gain. There is no place just like that in the world. The scenery and colors were out of this world. Thanks to my guide and buddy Dilip who had arranged everything, If you ever plan the trip – hire a guide. You will save money and time.

Jurassic Coast Ride

It was a great ride along the shore from Christchurch station to the Old Harry Rocks cliffs.  The journey started with a dude named Moses stealing my bike from the Christchurch train station(!). You can’t make it up. He grabbed my bike from the train bike rack and walked out of the train. I’ve chased the guy and eventually handed him over to police. This is the second time my bike is stolen in less than 4 weeks. Jurassic Coast is one of the nicest places in England: great sandy beaches, blue skies, and long, hiding on the horizon shoreline. Reminded me of the place where I grew up.
