My
name is Dawa Shrepa and i am from the Sherpa community. My name has a
significant meaning as well. Since I was born on Monday I was named Dawa
which means “Moon” or “Month”.
I am from one of the most beautiful
places called “Solukhumbu” nicked named as “Solu” , which lies in the
base of Everest. But ultimately ended up at Kathmandu at the age of 8.
My father guides as a mountaineer. Since fitting to a Nepalese community
it was compulsory to follow the footsteps of my parents. But biking
interested me more. I was merely 15 years old when i got hold of my
first bike. Then, I took it as a fun ride but as I dogged more and more
into it, I became very fond it, and eventually ended up making it as my
profession.
I laid my hands on the first trip to Annapurna round as an
assistance guide. It was purely bewildering. Seeing the Himalayas around
me, I fondled, that was what I always craved and wanted to show the
whole world; what I was blissful in doing.
Till date I have guided more than 600 clients from around the world to
one of the amazing landscaped of Nepal, Tibet and India. 12 times to
Annapurna (anti clock wise) , 4 times(clockwise) to Annapurna has been
amazing with 100% result along with clients satisfied.
Besides biking, climbing has also interested me and not forgetting
“Travel”.
This blog is completely on my travelling diaries. I am blowing in the
wind. A rider on the storm.
Cheers
Keep it up Dawa !! A good initiative !!
