Mail by Runner 155: Our Footsteps of Hillary trekkers are home

Our In the Footsteps of Hillary group has now returned from Nepal, and the photos coming through have been a joy. Clear skies. Big mountains. Warm welcomes in every village. And, most importantly, a group who fully embraced the spirit of travelling respectfully through the Solu Khumbu.

Jennifer, one of our trekkers, sent a note to the group when she arrived home. It summed up the feeling better than we ever could:

“There is no way words can adequately express my gratitude to everyone. This trip had been amazing and I have made life long memories. To those that supported our efforts, took care of all the details I give a heartfelt thank you. To Peter and the trekkers it was a pleasure to get to know each of you.

Namaste and love and light to each of you!"

It was a special trip. To our trekkers: we’re so glad you’re home safely, and we hope the memories linger for a long time.
