Kanchenjunga Base Camp Trek: Into the Heart of the Himalayas
Trekking to Kanchenjunga Base Camp felt like stepping into a world untouched by time. Unlike the more popular trekking routes in Nepal, this journey took me deep into the wild, where nature ruled in its rawest form. Far from crowds, commercial lodges, and modern luxuries, it was just me, my small team, and the endless expanse of the Himalayas.

Emphasizing The Whoosh; a March Perspective. Top Story - March 2025.
Good afternoon, Vocal Media community and welcome to my first Monday huddle of March! Sorry I missed you last week but I couldn't capture my intended photographs to my liking which are relevant to my story. As an avid birder, I often capture their flight patterns on film, but for this particular prompt, the whoosh, I found my task a bit tricky, especially with the speed of the implied word.

Me and my pink bicycle
New Zealand. Oh, how I dreamed of going and exploring this country. And how sure I was, I would never be able to afford a trip like that. But a few years of travelling, tons of experiences and a lot of confidence later, I realized it could be possible. Saving a bit of money from a previous job, all it cost me was a plane ticket and the application for a Working Holiday Visa.

Out with the huskies
Silence. The only sounds that can be heard are paws scrunching on the snow and a sled gliding over icy tracks. All around it’s endlessly white. Snowcapped mountains in the distance, frozen lakes and ice crystals in the trees. Stars shining from above and their reflection on the snow. Face stiff and with every blink you feel your frozen eyelashes brushing your cheeks. Completely vulnerable, exposed to the elements with only a few layers separating you from a white death. And still full of trust and at ease because of these twelve souls safely carrying you back home. A shared look between you and your lead dog, a quick command and the entire team turns in unison. You push the sled around and you know; you have nothing to worry about as long as you’re together. And your dogs know the same. They’re out here, loving it. The cold, the exercise, the smells, the speed. But they also know, you keep them safe. You know where to go, when to stop and when to return. It’s a connection you’ll never have again. Not with any dog and definitely not with any human. It’s special and unique and it shows you that maybe, that’s what we’re actually made for. For something primitive. Something simple. And natural.
