“Everybody thinks it’s a challenge between you and the mountain but it’s actually an experience between you and yourself.”

Lama joined the community for our Bhutan 2019 adventure. On this episode of Talking Outdoors we talked to Lama about the apprehension of joining a team as a solo traveller, her life changing moments in Bhutan, where she’s heading from here and we hear her advice for those of us seeking to take our first steps into the outdoors.

“The whole Bhutan experience is a meditative experience.”
