ONE OF THE BEST TREKS!!

25-Jun-2019

For me trekking in Langtang Valley was more fun than anything. Everything was just fine except the feeling that these people have an amazing blend of minimal technologies with their resilient lifestyles in such a rural region and the contrast is we westerners can't imagine living a minute without electricity or our cell phones
