Himalaya Gongo Hotel 🇳🇵

■ NEPAL, HIMALAYA: Ever since I'd ran into an Indian trekker coming back down along the Langtang river on my first day of this Himalayan excursion, I've had one thing on my mind: get to Tibet Guesthouse at Lama Hotel rest-stop and try their Gongo (or Roksi as it's called in Nepal).
I always like to sample locally made brews when I'm in a new country and according to this Indian who had just spent the previous night at Tibet Hotel, the owner there had made the best Gongo he'd ever had in his entire life.
In fact, and I quote: "He has brewed it to perfection!", he said.
That's why I set out from Bamboo Lodge so early in the morning without even eating anything other than a granola bar. I wanted to get to Tibet Guesthouse as soon as possible to start the day like any real man should: with a fresh shot of Gongo!
What I didn't expect though was to run into the coolest and nicest couple I met on my whole Himalayan trekking adventure. A couple that started the very first lodge at the Hotel Lama location over 40 years ago and are still running that same guesthouse today.
■ Now before you watch, or after for that matter, I'd like to comment on what you see in the very beginning here, which I actually fully understand given the hard times hotel and guesthouse operators face, but still rubs me the wrong way. As I'm walking into this area here called Lama hotel I already knew where I was going: Tibet Guesthouse.
Every-time I entered a cluster of guesthouses like this, the people who run the first hotels and restaurants will of course be outside trying their best get you to stop at theirs. In this case however I knew where I was going and clearly stated I was going to Tibet Guesthouse, although I didn't know exactly which building that was.
Instead of simply pointing it out for me, they answer evasively on all my questions and instead say something along the lines of why don't I stop at their hotel instead.
Normally I am fairly good and ignoring such people but in this case I was so obsessed with hunting for Gongo that they nearly got the better of me. Especially when I saw that big barrel of I almost set up shop there and as you can see for the next 5 minutes even after getting away, seriously pondered going back to eat at said hotel.
Luckily I came to my senses and both drank and ate at Tibet Guesthouse which was the original plan. My point is when someone already know where they're going I wish they'd simply say sure... that's the hotel you see 3 buildings down there on the right; enjoy!

@@sam_rowan That was a cool post and I really appreciate it -I'll also check out that book. And if I'm completely honest, I think I sometimes use the money thing as an excuse. I have no debt and I've got a pretty good savings that I'm just reluctant to use. But as you say, I need to get out there. The only real traveling I've done was in the Yucatan and the Caribbean. Don't worry,, I'm not talking about cruises or all inclusive resorts.....I did the kind of stuff Harald and Bald and others do and it was the greatest time of my life. I know that still isn't exactly being adventurous (its less than 1500 miles from home and even when going off the tourist trail there are not many truly isolated/adventurous places.

[@wowomah6194]

Maybe I'm wrong...but there certainly seems to be something about people who live in mountains and who know all their neighbors and life being inherently hard in such places...that that kind of people, no matter where in the world, tend to be very welcoming and incredibly charitable to those who pass through...it's pretty much that way in the USA in various parts of Appalachia as well and I have seen at least one or two reports of some researchers studying people who live in cold, mountainous areas that apparently found it to just be the case: people who live in cold, mountainous areas are just nicer and more gentle to others...almost out of necessity I imagine since you never feel the need of other humans quite like living in such areas. In cities, it's easy to just treat others as just another number...one of many who has no relation to you and who, if you wanted to, you would never have to see again even though you live within 1 square mile of each other.

[@mbenrice]

@@wowomah6194 I have had this same observation. I guess the harder the elements push people, the closer they draw together. It is also just in generally cold places - not strictly mountainous areas; the northern plains of Canada would be a good example. What certainly helps is their distance from urbanised centres, where money and power have an influence. I also saw evidence of this humanity in Vietnam in rural areas. There are many factors but the differences between cold, mountainous areas and cities in the USA, for example, are stark.

The lady who was talking about 'Om Mani Peme Hum' is a mantra of Shakyamuni Buddha ... Which is so devine and carries meaning in its every syllable proving the compassionate soul right from birth till death.

Haraldo You are promoting our tourism sector more than our entire government Thank you 🙏❤️

[@BigKuttaify]

So nice to see such simple happy people, unaffected by the rest of the crazy world. I have done treks like these in the Indian Himalayas, but these videos have me longing to go back again some day. Nice videos!

[@amirthapamagar4954]

Thank you man for visiting our greatest country and showing wonderful nature and Himalaya to all over the world.🇳🇵🙏🙏🙏💕💕

[@paldenlepcha4010]

This guy is so friendly with everyone wherever he goes around the world and very enthusiastically he involves whomever he makes videos .Moreover, his narration about the place or people with whom he goes to make seems to be so kind and positive even in their absence that makes everyone great to hear.On the top, his gesture is always remained highly appreciable besides a generous man.

[@nightline9868]

Let me tell you, it wasn't always like that. A few years ago he was a little selfish and also a bit disrespectful against developing countries. But I think he learned a lesson trough all his traveling and exploring. A very valuable lesson. That even in the roughest conditions you can have a happy peaceful life.

@@nightline9868 remember when he went to America and acted a fool. But I love the man and we’re all not perfect. He’s gentle af now

[@nightline9868]

True. He really made a transition towards a nice man.

Haraldo you are a legend. This series is absolutely incredible and the interaction with the people is perfection. Cannot wait for the next episode.

[@samsammsammm1547]

@Harald Baldr 'Dall bhatt" literally means lentils (dall) and rice (bhatt): same in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nepal. So you can't have dall bhatt potato' without bhatt, and not expect rice like the video before!!

[@matthewhadfield849]

Thank you for the videos my friend. Between the pandemic and a failed back surgery I've had a rough year. Your videos have been an outlet for me. They're very relaxing and help with my anxiety. It's nice to see all the people, their different cultures and beautiful countries. You are living my dream my friend. Bless you

[@nickchelemen1099]

Honestly was always a subscriber but never really watched your videos until this series. I love how to treat and interact with everyone you meet :)

[@tormagnedyrskog2085]

This series is so far among the very best you have made. Meeting the locals and exploring the country is my favourite.

[@RaGingNemesiis]

You should watch Baldrs episodes where he's with the tribe in Africa loved that series also, hope he returns one day!

[@mariohernandez344]

@@RaGingNemesiis oh yes that series is one of my favorites Harald is just a good guy

[@Marisolita_95]

Sometimes I come across comments complaining that the videos are too long. Damn, Harald's doing such a great job, I don't mind if the video is two hours long or more. Thank you Harald for this wonderful series and hopefully there will be many more episodes coming from you of this beautiful country. Te mando un abrazo - - Jeg sender deg en klem 💜💕💜 Stay safe & healthy! Chao! Sees senere! Hilsen fra Las Palmas 😊💕

[@sumitmalla1039]

I don’t really comment on videos but man the conversation that he had with those two people really gave me chills. Had goosebumps listening to her. Hope the best for them, next time when I go back home Nepal I will surely take this trip and visit them ❤️

[@paulclarke4305]

I envy you being in such a place, . Now this is what i call a great video! Awesome! keep em coming Harald.

[@dipakdevkota2954]

Harald, you're great when you interact with the people there. I just cannot stop myself from repeating the videos again and again. You have to visit Nepal and Kathmandu again and again and make your vlogs.

[@sagaradhikari7906]

His Nepal episode is the best so far, feels like I’m watching a Netflix documentary rather than just a normal travel vlog !

[@joyson7]

Better than Netflix

[@tobyrouse9146]

Agree, this is the best series he had done. Partly for me out of all the things he has done this is what I would love to do myself

[@Raggself]

My name is Ragini Gongo and this video was recommended to me. 😅

[@HaraldBaldr]

No way! Epic name 😆 Harald Approves! 👍

[@stevemorton4593]

thanks for you video. I love how friendly everyone seems to be. Also love how Industrial the local people are. Thanks for including the price of food and hotel

[@carlasumner3453]

Can’t wait for your next video,, man you gotta be a very brave dude to hike up those trails by yourself ! I love all the footage you get, you really put us there, except we’re not freezing. Be Safe and happy 2022🎉🎉

[@jacksondrake-lost]

I love how they sit around and just relax... in the quiet mountain air. Genuine people. Beautiful mountainside. Then they feed you a real traditional meal.. whopping portion perfect food for the hike and a whopping shot of fire. That guest house was also nice.. looked like a tight build. Insulate your whole body! The blankets are perfect. Excellent work again! I could keep up if I were there for sure.

[@srijanashrestha7615]

I love how he is so curious about the simplest thing...and easily interact with people and shares their simple stories and that's what makes this video even more entertaining 🤩🤩❤️.

[@brunnentor1]

I love these videos. My favorite are the Himalayan ones.

[@franciscabonsel2237]

i loved all the meals along these tracks. everything is made with ingredients straight from the garden. eating with the local people around the cooking fire was great for making conversation. just like you do. such a pity that many houses were destroyed.

[@Rosstacular]

Cant help but get emotional watching you interact with these warm, wonderful people. This is how humanity should be, simple living, treating total strangers like family, brightening their day with smiles, conversation and good food.

[@raphal0905]

I’m surprised that these people can understand and communicate in English very well. Simple, genuine, generous people. This series is the best. I’m literally waiting for a new upload.

I am from Himachal and Nepal remind me of lahaul Spiti. Nepal is so beautiful and peaceful and Nepali people hospitality is so good.

[@marlenefunk2137]

Kiddo, these views of the land and your hike goes way beyond amazing. I am 77 and I have traveled about the world on my own, as it is easier to meet people. I wish more people would have the courage to venture out and meet the World face to face with others who are sharing this life. I lived in the U.S. 68 years and had been all over, but never South America. Then one day, I just packed it up and moved to South America, where I have lived, and love, for ten years. I spoke very little Spanish and demanded to live in an all Spanish neighborhood on the side of a volcano. Keep the videos coming!

[@ohlando7913]

Nicaragua?

Your interaction with the people... Just awesome sir... Each video I watched makes me eager to watch the next one...
