Tashi was super helpful making sure we got the most from the time we had for trekking! He encouraged us to get off the beaten track and tackle the Manaslu Circuit. It was a fantastic adventure guided by Balku who had great English skills and even cooked for us on a day the local village cook was away. Learning some Nepali on the trail was fun and we had plenty of opportunity to practise.
