I have been here away from home for two years now and still haven’t found queer community to hangout with.
I really want to connect with queers from Gujarat and have good time or atleast feel safe and heard maybe
Cuz at college being out as a lesbian, I feel like the imposter almost all the time😭
I want to know :
Thankyou
If you’re a woman and want to experience solo trekking for cheap and not compromising on safety, then Nepal is the place!! Their hospitality is just on another level and as solo female i was also given free accommodations mostly and was paying only for the meals
Walking on Tilicho lake trail was the most thrilling experience i have ever had!!
It had rock fall zones, landslide zones, 22 ghumti ascent, steep sections, beautiful terrains, mind blowing rock formations, live stream and ofc the lake.
And on some sections you cant afford to stop or take a break as the rocks start slipping beneath your feet and you might fall!
The adrenaline rush each day u get on this trail just makes you feel everything tooo real!!
I also came across three more small lakes on the way on last day! If u have more money on hand i would suggest u to head to yak kharka and cross thorong la and reach muktinath. But after doing mardi Himal i was little short of money and i could only do tilicho lake.
Also for tilicho lake you have to reach Manang/ Khangsar first and the 7 hours long ride itself is soo adventurous and u come across three lakes, many famous waterfalls like chamche and octopus waterfall on the way to Manang!
While on the other hand Mardi Himal was like walking in complete dense forest for two days alone. And the terrains start changing but u do get the views of fishtail peak since day 1. Imagine walking in dense mist forest and all u can hear is sounds of birds and insects.
I have never walked on such trail which had literally only nine to ten people. Yes in first two days till low camp, i only met ten people and everyone had different walking speed so each one had the trail to themselves in a way!
Also descended Mardi himal to Landruk which is just across the famous village Ghandruk from where south ABC trail starts. I was planning on going to ABC too but when i reached ghandruk, crowds for ABC looked insane. Tooo many people! It looked like mela so i headed back to Pokhara and planned for tilicho lake instead.
I really want to meet people who are into carrying their own gears like tent and camping stove and just hit the trails.
As a solo female trekker, im still not confident enough for diy multi day treks but i have gone on single day treks multiple times by myself like
Triund, kareri lake, in some remote villages of kinnaur, kheerganga, wiachin valley!
I want to really join some groups who like to do diy treks and go on multi day treks. Cuz come on these agencies charge hefty lot of money for even 3 to 4 days treks.
