Chris & Carol: Congratulations to you guys to heads Kathmandu, Nepal this week in great joy & peace April of 2023.I really LOVE your first video today’s from Nepal 2023❤❤❤

[@aditya.sedhai]

I know the trek is harder than it looks, and Carol's face in the first phases was hilarious. Gorgeous btw.

[@giannishen]

My heart melted at first sight of that baby goat, it's so cute! My heart melted again when you asked about Carlo's shoulder, what a caring husband you are! I really admire your vitalities, you are really warriors and models for modern people! Thank you for taking us to climb that mountain, I don't need physical strength, but I saw a great view! The scenery of the Himalayas is truly magnificent! 👍🥰🙏🙌

[@JumpingPlaces]

Much better scenery coming soon, gets better and better in the next videos!

[@giannishen]

@@JumpingPlaces Thanks a lot for letting me know! You are very nice! 👍🤩👌

[@ilovejewelyn]

I did ABC and ended my trek in Pohkara spending Christmas there. I really fell in love with Nepal and the people. Thank you for sharing!

[@oceansaway5675]

I love Nepal soooo much! I would even say that it is in my TOP 3 countries which I have been to (50). We have also done a Poon Hill trekking - it was sooo cool.

[@Yatri-lg8qz]

Thanks a lot sir 🙇‍♀️ 💌 🇳🇵🚩

[@williamlarkin5045]

I did a Poon Hill trek about 3 years ago at age 68. I had a porter, which I couldn't have gone without. Even so, the "6000 steps" or whatever it was was the most demanding thing I have done, and I've run many marathons. At one stage I just wanted to sit down, but remembered that this could have meant that I may not have been able to get up.... Thanks for this. It brought back some great memories of the trip, which I put up there as a lifetime highlight. My best friend is Irish and I am now determined to convince him to go to Poon Hill at least. I'm not a big drinker, but you could get beer at the guest houses (Everest Beer?). Worth doing.

[@RogerNaylor-pb8gf]

Well done guys. I did this trek a few years ago but with a group and a porter who carried my pack. Makes a huge difference. I believe this is now becoming obligatory. Since I retired I have travelled to many of the places you have visited. I enjoy your videos. I'm also a Mancunian but have lived in South Africa for 50 years. Keep up the good work

[@jacquelinedesa4271]

What an amazing video! This made my day! I love how you guys highlight the small details like the encounter with the baby goat. Also great aerial views! I got teary eye of how beautiful this trail is. Excited for the next videos about it! Thank you!!

[@pramodkdhakal]

I just recently visited Nepal, it's a wonderful country. People are so wise. Love from Japan ❤ Ali Ali guff ta pelnai paryo ni guys 😂😂

Wow what an amazing and beautiful trip for both of you,Chris and Carol! Looking forward to the next part.

[@theoadelaidabondocabe7261]

Chris & Carol:Welcome to Kathmandu, Nepal this week in April of 2023 after you guys spent few weeks in Taipei, Taiwan last month or March to releases five or six videos before heading to Nepal this week in April of 2023.I wish you guys the BEST in great joy & peace 2023❤❤❤❤❤

[@prathagautam9872]

Love the video, can't wait for more videos from the trek! As a Nepalese living abroad, I haven't had the chance to explore Nepal yet but I did one small trek in 2015 in the same region and it was one of the most beautiful trips I've ever had. The views, the vibe, the simple life of the villagers, the waterfalls you see along the way, were all so amazing!

[@donrobillos8056]

i just came from Nepal and did the ABC trek . how i wish to see you. love from the Philippines

[@JumpingPlaces]

Nice! How did it go?

[@AuntyJack123]

Thank you for taking us it was amazingly beautiful. You are blessed to be able to hike so high and be so strong and agile. I get elevation sickness after about 2300 metres, so I appreciate watching you do the climb.

[@solecasioa6334]

If beauty can save the world, this is it !!!

[@theoadelaidabondocabe7261]

Chris & Carol:Welcome to Kathmandu, Nepal this week in April of 2023 after you guys left Taipei, Taiwan this week to arrives in Kathmandu, Nepal to releases this great video today’s in 2023❤❤❤❤Good LUCK to you guys always in peace 2023❤❤❤

[@zigzagsolti5998]

Again Nepal 🇳🇵 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@EdCNJ]

Waking up to see the sunrise provides that euphoric feeling to kick start the day 🌄👍🏻 This trip is going to be packed with awesomeness!!

[@JumpingPlaces]

Sure is, gets better and better. The rest is coming soon :D

[@tamiann542]

I have several friends that go on treks all over the world. It never really interested me but I'm happy to be following your trek to see what it's like!

[@TheEddieToro]

Really thank you a lot for showing this part of the trek with all the lodging options plus letting us know how the deals work. Beautiful landscapes. Keep Jumping Places as that's what y'all are in to 😎👍🏻.

[@barbaram2196]

Oh man! You’ve made me do happy with this video. I’ve done this trek in 2009 and your video brought all the memories back. I remember, I think 3rd day, with those 1000 steps down, 1000 steps up. It was hard!

[@JumpingPlaces]

The stairs were mental! so you also did ABC via poon hill? Will be interesting to see how much it has changed. I did watch some videos from 6-7 years ago and everywhere looks basically identical to how it is now.

[@barbaram2196]

@@JumpingPlaces it looks exactly how it was back then. The only difference is the Poonhill itself, I remember it being just a grassy hilltop, but perhaps that viewing platform was already there, I just don't recall it. I damaged my ligament on that hike so I will never be able to do those long steep hikes again, but it was totally worth it:)I'm looking forward to your other videos from ABC.

[@johnwakefield9378]

Incredible views that sunrise on those spectacular mountain ranges were mind blowing. Love your videos and the variety of places you take us.

[@veraalbuquerque161]

Wow very beautiful place, pure nature. Very challenging too! ✌️

[@mikehuffman5460]

One of my favorite of all your videos! Can't wait to see the rest of these!

Get's better and better :D

[@Liz-ew7dd]

wowwoo! the mountains, the river looks absolutely gorgeous to me reminds me the mountains I've seen in Bhutan. just breathe taking

[@JumpingPlaces]

Would love to go to Bhutan!

[@EddieAppell]

Stunning views throughout the video, but the payoff at the very end is worth all the hard work you guys did to get up there! AMAZING!

[@lindaromero7780]

I remember the non-stop steps. Brutal!

[@ccfully]

Neverending! 😩

[@marcoprolo1488]

A much harder short trek than it is rated. I was there mid Feb.

Sun rise is amazing Chris 🌅🌅🌅, wow 🤯. And wait to see more

[@AshimThapa123]

Such a I am honestly appreciated what you're doing along with your activities. Far from simply creating content, it seems that you are doing this from the heart. It seems so natural and totally local cultural with adventure vlog. You are the one of the few KZbinrs in the world. Thank you so much for exploring information about Nepalese real & natural beauty...............

[@robmanners9024]

I've done that trek, so nice to relive the experience again through your videos. You would have been one of the last to trek without a guide. Trekking is now banned for people without a qualified guide.

[@JumpingPlaces]

Yes we were there the week before the rules changed, we talk about that rule change in the next video coming soon

[@DanielSmith-sl3pv]

Wow - amazing! Thanks for sharing the experience & how you guys did your trekking journey! Cheers...

[@JumpingPlaces]

More to come!

Hello from Thailand! Love your videos so much! Best wishes to you!🙏🙏💝💖💗❤🧡💛💚💙💜💯💯💯💯

[@notdunntravelling]

Hi guys great video! Im actually doing the same trek in September. Did you not need to hire a guide? Would love a full cost breakdown video if possible 😊

[@JumpingPlaces]

They just made guides mandatory now in April for pretty much all treks throughout nepal, we got in just before the new mandate. Only everest base camp you don't need a guide for some reason. At the end of the trek we go over all of our costs and what we packed in a video :D

[@Benandmycat]

Thank you so much , amazing to see the reality and beauty of what it’s like to trek the Himalayas !

[@JumpingPlaces]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Benandmycat]

@@JumpingPlaces thank you rewatched with my husband and seriously considering doing it ourselves, love the hike to each bit and the payment in accommodation being eating there ! Eagerly awaiting your next instalment!

[@AnilBagga-u2h]

heh guys, love the videos and Incredibly useful. I am scheduled to trek ABC in Nov. Do you have a scan of the elevation map for the trekl that you unfolded in one of your videos? It looked super useful and the best elevation map/profile i have seen.

[@SD-vc8ud]

Once they stepped in Nepal im sure they’ll fall in love with the class of people and Classic Nepal

[@bartonsky]

Great video, thank you for sharing. Curious was this before the rule change about having a guide? I seem to read now that starting in March they require people to hire guides to do treks. Thank you again.

[@JumpingPlaces]

yes it was a week before the rule change

[@ccfully]

Great vlog 👏🏽 I did the Ghorepani / Poon Hill Trek in June 2019. I was not expecting the amount of stairs involved. By the end of the trek my knees & hips were wrecked!

[@williamlarkin5045]

I relate to this.

[@markclayton626]

Loved that part one, I’m now heading straight to part two 👍

[@ninettemurk7492]

You are the 3th blogger I follow this week who is doing a trekking from Pokhara to Fishtail mountain (Machapuchare). How come?

[@JumpingPlaces]

Not sure, coincidence i guess. It is the start of the season. March/April/May people do the trekking so i guess there will be more vloggers at this specific time

[@rheffner3]

Hard to believe it is so warm in Nepal in March. Thought it would be all snowy this time of year.

[@ShG2022]

Global warming...lodged between the two polluted giants, India and China, Nepal bears the brunt of all the pollution and global warming

[@Jesse-sv8xk]

Haha, yes. You're so right, I never thought I'd meet you here. How have you been doing?😊

[@scottgordon1781]

Very cool , you guys move fast , even at snails pace , until mom and baby ran past you :-) As such was pleasantly surprised at how many got up so early to watch the sunrise , did not see much of it . The only good thing about going up , is on the way back all down hill :-) Enjoy .

[@JumpingPlaces]

Yeah the sun itself didn't add much value on this day, not much of an orange sky really. Could have woken up about an hour later and gone up in the light lol

[@KingoftheNorth56]

Hi Chris, what an awesome video 👍 I’m out of breath just watching you guys on your hike. It almost looked as if it was planned when Carol’s hiking thru the village wearing blue and the village is also blue 😂

[@JumpingPlaces]

Yeah funny how similar the colors were haha

Hi!! Increíble experience, and good video, can you please tell, When did you do the trek? Which month and station of the year? I’m planning to go on march and I a bit worried about the weather up there and I need to puck up the properly staff. thanks.

Hey Chris, did you guys get cocoa tasting opportunities? (chocolate) while you’re there? ☕️ Is cocoa prevalent? I see you were close to some trees near the end of the Vlog. 31:37. Hi Carol! Rich

[@hih-meh1344]

One word: Magnificent❣️

[@sabrinastraveladventures4263]

Absolutely Fantastic Gosh I’d love to do something like this! I didn’t realise you could trek without a group. Do you have to reach these 2 spots on your first 2 days? I wonder if it’s possible to do a bit less maybe? do these over 3 or 4 days instead? My ill health holds me back as I’m more limited in my stamina than an average person by a long shot but my mind is very daring and unsure how much my body and lungs would let me get away with so I wonder if there is possibilities to do it at a slower paste! These Goats oMG they are cute! I wanted to get some icelandics ones already now I could definitely go get Nepali ones also if I had enough land to sustain them … just played Loto 😂 wish me luck 🤞🏼 I m so looking forward to see the rest of this trip I really wonder if I would be capable to do some of it! One question? Where did you leave the rest of your clothes? As always well done 👏🏼 Sabrina 🇫🇷🇬🇧

[@JumpingPlaces]

Now in April they have just made it mandatory to have a guide for all treks in nepal except for everest base camp for some reason. There are many lodges that you can stay at before the ones that we stayed at you don't need to stay in these specific villages, the restaurant that we ate at before we went to ulleri is also a lodge. Basically all the restaurants are also lodges that you can stay. This ABC trek is good for that becuase there are many locals living there farming e.t.c and they usually operate some kind of lodge and restaurant, so even though the area is remote you never feel alone or anything. We left our other belongings at the hotel in pokhara, it is common in Nepal that you can leave your things at the hotels when you go on your treks but it is good to check with them first.

[@sabrinastraveladventures4263]

It gives me a goal to work on towards to now I know it could be ok just even if I stop at that first part for me would be a great achievement!

How was stomach holding up during the trip? I see some people suggest no meat during the trip to avoid stomach issues.

[@JumpingPlaces]

All good, at a certain point on the trek they actually stop serving meat, there is a part where it is considered holy for the locals and no meat is allowed

[@JumpingPlaces]

This will be on a different day though, not on this day in the video
