THE CLASSIC EVEREST BASE CAMP TREK Dezember 2011 [12:50]
My way on the Mount Everest Base Camp Trek. I've been 20 days in Nepal and 13 days on the EBC-Trek. It's really an amazing mountain hike with awesome views, very nice people and great experiences!!! It's not too difficult, the only difficulty is to walk 4-9 hours in such a high altitude like you'll have it on the trek... but if you're motivated and you take your time (if you have it...) it's no problem!!! I didn't made it to the top of Kala Pattar and to the EBC. We had to walk after our timetable and I had no chance to recover when it got very exhausted. But that was the only problem with the booked and not individual organized tour, everything else was really perfect!!! If you have any questions feel free to contact me! Ps Diamox sucks, ginger and garlic rule ;-) Songs: 1. Om Shanti Shanti Shanti Om - Mantra 2. Cobweb - Namaste

high altitude and low oxigen levels to the brain can cause erratic and eccentric behavior.
