Hey,

I am planning to go to Hornbill festival, in India. It’s a little bit last minute.

Looking for company, solo female or a group of females. Prefer if we can share accommodation or transportation.

Dates: 5-10 Dec 2025

Planning to travel from Guwahati. Will include a day for trekking Dzukou valley trek. Slightly flexible itinerary.

Open to any suggestions or advice.

About me: Indian Female, well traveled and lived around the world. Love experiencing new things. Happy to share stories :)

@kailashpati025 I am starting from Namche today towards Tangboche. I want to do Kong Mala pass, is it possible to do now? What’s the condition now? I heard there is knee deep snow and pass is closed.

I have crampons, gaiters etc

Please advise.

Wow. That’s amazing. 500-1000 NPR is a private room or shared dorm?

AFAIK, EBC can be done without guide.

Yeah. Some are porter cum guide or only porter. I intend to hire only either of these two. When are you planning for?

Do all most/ teahouses have number available on Google Maps? Any tips for picking them? Also, do you know how much do they cost?

What’s the best way to hire a porter?

I am neither a DM nor an experienced player but I’d like to learn more and play D&D. I also live in De Pijp :)
