 Hi Furi are you from Namche? You know that I visited this place in 1979 January on New Years' eve!! I was inspired by the movie Isq Isq Isq by Dev Anand. He was there for 2-3 months. Is Namche connected by Air, from Kathmandu? I may give it a try.

 Furi, namaste, the outstanding photos show a more majestic and wilder land than most of the Rockies that I know of. Can I crawl over that suspension bridge. Simply stunning world, only for the true adventurer.
