Love, curry and diarrhoea pills.
A story of a madcap trip to India, Nepal and Pakistan by three hero-wannabes.

pre-trek miscellany

Because there are too many photos of our trek to Miar Glacier and we are rushed for time, we have to wait till our next destination (Lahore) before we can post all of them. Meanwhile, here are some of the pre-trek photos we took.

The night before the trek, we had doudo, a traditional Hunza noodle dish made with wheat noodles, vegetables and egg. Looks suspiciously like ban mian. It was nourishing.



An indicator of things to come, we chanced upon a nice flower. We saw many more flora and fauna along the trek.




We reached our base camp, and the driver and porter unpacks the jeep.





I bought a traditional Pakistani hat to replace my beanie as my headwarmer. Hopefully it works. I look like some boy who delivers the newspaper, or bakes bread. Oliver Twist. Wth.


You can pull down the edges of the hat, till it covers your entire face. I was clearly very cold when I did this. I look like I am going to be executed soon. Which is not really far from what was to happen at the trek.

The BBC newsfeed is quite hilarious. 2 about cricket, 2 about random violence, 1 about india's shrimp industry.
