Salut! This is my interactive travelogue for '09! As most of you know, I will spend the next few months traveling around the World, visiting my friends & family, visiting countries I've never been to, learning about new cultures; languages, running marathons, hiking mountains, relaxing, re-energizing, and re-connecting with the World!

Namche Bazar (3,440m)
2 days of acclimatization at Namche.
Like Lukla, Namche is one of the villages with shops and stores and lodges (electricity, phones, etc). This is the last point with the internet connection :)
Namche is beautiful. Small town nestled between the tall mountains! All in blue!
It is 6 AM. My camp-site is still half asleep. Sherpas come around at 6:30 AM to give us tea or coffee (inside of our tents:) and then we wash, stretch, and eat breakfast.
After breakfast we either hike to the next village or train, like now in Namche.
Every day is like a dream! The views of the Himalayas are spectacular!! Everything seems surreal.
Life is all about right here and now. Every minute is fully lived and absorbed.
Hindu people say that to come to the Everest (and the Himalayas) is to come to Heaven! So true! :))
I'm off to eat my porridge... and then run around the hills :))
