Let's talk about something often overlooked: coming home from an intense journey. It's much more often that people ask: "what was it like to be there?" than "what's it like to be back?". The hardest thing I’ve ever done is to come home from the Himalaya. Home was suddenly an alien place, with me a stranger amongst people I knew. And I wasn't alone. Getting back has been tough on all of us, and getting back on our feet has been a slow process. It's only now, after we've been talking publicly about our time in Nepal, that it feels right to mention the aftermath. I don't think those mountains will ever let me go, nor that I will ever be able to forget them. But that's ok. The Great Himalaya Trail has been one heck of a journey, and as I wrote in the post as well: I would put myself back at the starting line in a heartbeat. I hope you have a look, this will be my final post on Nepal. Because yes, there is a new plan, though you'll have to read to figure out what it is :). PS: Crossing Aotearoa has migrated to lostinthehills.com! New web address, same good content #nepal #visitnepal #greathimalayatrail #ght #himalayas #hiking #mountains #turjenter #throughhike #outdoors #sisugirls #sqoop_no #fjellsport_no #nowifigreatconnection #helsport #himalayangeographic

Four summers in these mountains and still I find spots every year that inspire a want for more. When it's sad to leave a place behind all you can do is go back, see more, explore further. From time to time I try and make myself relax on days off, but there's too much to discover to just sit on the sofa 🙃 #norge #norway #visitnorway #bestofnorway #dreamchasersnorway #norgefoto #mountainsofnorway #utno #igscandinavia #turjenter #nowifigreatconnection #mittvestland #uteerbest

Up there, where the swirl of life goes on far below and the air has that sweet smell of freedom #norge #norway #visitnorway #bestofnorway #dreamchasersnorway #norgefoto #mountainsofnorway #utno #fjordsofnorway #igscandinavia #turjenter #nowifigreatconnection #nærøyfjorden #hiking #sqoop_no #visitflåm

Behind the forbidding cliffs of the Nærøyfjord lies a maze of desolate valleys, wild mountains and a lonely glacier. The plan, as by tradition, was on the optimistic side. The terrain we picked, as usual, unforgiving. Half of the trails marked on the map did not exist. It all ended with a massive 6km sprint to make the final boat out of Dyrdal - only accessible by sea. Definitely one of my favourite and one of the most dramatic hikes I've ever done in Norway, though I must say I'm slightly relieved that I won't need to do it again 🙈. 2,5 days, 72km and 5500m of vertical gain and loss. For en tur! #norge #norway #visitnorway #bestofnorway #dreamchasersnorway #norgefoto #mountainsofnorway #utno #fjordsofnorway #igscandinavia #turjenter #vestlandet
