Description:

Amin had an interesting experience in Nepal in April-May 2015 trekking in Khumbu region of Nepal around Everest base camp and 5,000m peaks around it. He experienced the devastating Nepal Earthquack, just missed the avalanche and got stock in the mountains for a week before he could get a flight back to Kathmandu. He will share his story with us and is going to show tons of beautiful pictures from one of most fascinating places on Earth. Amin cant wait to go back to Himalayas again next year, this time probably Annapurna region...
