Ankit Karki
Himalayan Expedition Leader & Safety Expert
15 Years on the Mountain
Hello! I'm Ankit Karki. For over a decade, I've organized high-altitude expeditions across the Himalayas. After guiding 50+ personal treks and witnessing the difference between life-saving preparation and dangerous negligence, I started this site to share the unfiltered truth about adventure travel.
My mission is simple: to provide the safety-critical, logistical details that mainstream travel blogs miss. Whether it's the reality of AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness) or the actual costs of "budget" travel, I write for travelers who want to come home safe.
