A donkey named Pringles…and so much more.

We are fresh from the trail, and everything is still sinking in. This was an amazing 4 days! It was grueling, and I am not a camper but Edwin and our porters made it all possible. The food was beyond expectation,and a highlight of each day! I wish someone would have told me that days 2 and 3 were like doing 6 hours on the stairclimber, but my group of 7 bonded over the extreme conditions and were very encouraging. You will push yourself beyond your limits, you will make friends from around the world, you will name wild animals (like Pringles the Donkey-named for eating a Pringle from our hand!), and you will reignite your soul!
