Back in Kathmandu
Two days on the bus. Another sleepless night at the Chinese border in a noisy restaurant sort of hotel sort of thing and the next day I was back in Nepal. I took a room, had my first shower in weeks, went to my favourite restaurant, went to my favourite bar, got terribly drunk and slept for countless hours. It was good to be back in the warmth. Coming back from the Tibetan altitude I felt like superman. And I knew I had just finished one of the most important trips in my life. There was only one thing left to do. I booked a round trip to Everest which was offered by Royal Nepal Airlines for I believe something like 50$. A bloody fortune when you travel on a shoestring but I was desperate to see the roof of the world from the other side.
