22 days of relaxing hiking on the Tsum Valley and Manaslu Circuit Trek, through the Nepal Himalayas, bordering Tibet. Join me, along with Sangay and Tsering (my guide and porter from Tsum Valley) on our trek as we experience authentic Tibetan and Nepalese village life, unlock the secrets within Tibetan monasteries, and go hiking with dogs, goats, yaks, and donkeys through breathtaking valleys and over awe-inspiring mountain passes. Trek was in March/April 2023.

Himalayan Tahr Treks, the sponsor of this trek, is a locally owned and operated trekking company that specializes in providing unique and very local experiences within the Manaslu Circuit and Tsum Valley regions. Because Sangay and Tsering were both from Tsum Valley, we were able to catch a glimpse of Tibetan village life by visiting their family homes and unlocking many monasteries in the villages.

    I am a Tibetan. Your videos are very beautiful and bring back many memories of my childhood. Because the environment and humanities captured are no different from those of Tibetans, except for the language barrier. I saw monasteries, Buddhist scriptures, Tibetan, Prayer flags and tsampa, I feel speechless, thank you🙏🙏🙏

    'pictures itself speaks thousand words'. no commentary yet the natural beauty,local lifestyle,culture everything is portrayed beautifully in the video
  • @healthquestforme
    Of all the Himalayan films I’ve watched over the years, this was the most respectful and eloquent. The quiet peaceful music with spectacular scenery captivates you. A heavy narration would have ruined it. Very calming and meditative.
  • @robertpayne6366
    Love the anonymity of the trekker. He doesn't dominate the video, which allows you to appreciate the content. Beautiful.

  • @himmelnah369
    I'm blown away by the shots. Thank you so much! I have just been given deep calming and relaxation. I'm also learning to take this way of life of the people there into my life. I long for simplicity. May our lives be a steaming rice bowl with potato curry.
  • @chrisknight3071
    Dear Nicholas, Thank you for this wonderfully made documentary, all is perfect and so well edited, I am impressed. No unnecessary words! Blessing on you and those who have helped you! What a great work. Warmly from British Columbia
  • @lorrainesmith1290
    Another amazing video… Your previous Manaslu Circuit video was the reason I decided to book a trek in Nepal this October. After watching this I’m even more excited and super happy I added a side trip to the Tsum Valley as well 😊
  • @haiku1973

  • @cindymiller4989
    There are no words to describe the incredible beauty in this video. The scenery, the people, the animals, even the music makes this a wonderfully amazing adventure. I feel as though I was actually there too! Thank you for sharing a part of the world I would never have seen without your video.
