Newfound interest in Everest
edit: thank you for all the recs!! this is amazing and keep em coming. my husband is now just as obsessed as I am, and it’s all we’re thinking about.
this weekend I had a lot of time on my hands, and after stumbling on Xavier and Bianca’s TikToks, I have been consumed by all things Everest. It’s never really crossed my mind past the random stuff you hear from time to time, but it’s consuming my free time. I can’t stop! it’s so fascinating.
so much respect and fear is swirling through my body as I learn more about summiting and what it takes. the history. the sherpas risking their lives. all of it is so insane!!
I watched 14 peaks earlier which was very cool, and my husband and I watched Everest tonight and that ruined our nights hahahahah. so so gripping and sad. great movie though.
anywho. just wanted to chat. I’ll be deep diving for the forseeable future. anyone have good recs for books / docs I can dive into? any cool facts? stories if you’ve done it? I just placed “into thin air” on Libby.
