Earlier this year I turned the travel dream of hiking to Everest Base Camp and volunteering in rural Nepal into a reality. I got to witness some of the most incredible scenery imaginable while trekking up to 5500m in the Himalayas. My team of volunteers and I then got to return our gratitude to the people of Nepal by completing a weeks charity work in a small rural community in Eastern Nepal helping to provide educational opportunities to disadvantaged children.

Volunteering with the charity ThisWorldExists has given me the opportunity to give back to the world while having some of the best adventures of my life. To read the full blog I wrote about my time in Nepal click the link! Or just enjoy some of the happy snaps from my 3 week trip below. Thanks guys :D
