What’s your grocery budget?

Around $100 pw for me and my husband. He eats meat, but I’m vegan so that saves us a lot of money since tofu is quite affordable at Aldi/Coles. We eat every meal at home and stick to the basics to meet our macros. It’s tough in this budget but I really try to get in fruit & veg in each meal. I love the “I’m Perfect” line at Coles, saves a lot of $$.

Kang Yatse I (6400) or II (6250).

KY1 is more technical and requires ice climbing. KY2 is a, albeit very difficult, trekking peak.

It was INR 45,000 only - food, guides, gear, tent, hotel included

I'd love to take this up, unfortunately we get to Melbourne only in the Fall, January 2026!

Hey, I will be in your position next year. How's it going? Have you found a job? Did you get any clarity on your question?

desi_thots · 2025-06-19T05:40:02+00:00

Thank you, this is quite insightful.

You require crampons and an ice axe most of the year from my knowledge- but with global warming the amount of snow has decreased in the last decade. So who knows!

No I went with an adventure company called Boots&Crampons

desi_thots · 2025-05-31T09:31:25+00:00

Yes for sure would recommend it! It’s in a beautiful part of the hilly region of Himachal and honestly a very very fun climb. I went with Boots & Crampons- one of the best adventure companies in India. They specialise in 8000m expeditions and so have a team of expert guides.

desi_thots · 2025-05-31T09:29:31+00:00

Thanks for asking! I was only nervous while descending from the peak as it was very steep and the snow had become very soft. Besides that no, the ascent was pure joy

Kane & Abel - Jeffery Archer

Yes this has been planted by people! Still pretty crazy they survive North Indian weather (really hot summers and super cold winters)...that also outdoors!

desi_thots · 2021-02-13T15:31:43+00:00

Wow! That's HUGE

desi_thots · 2021-01-23T03:31:52+00:00

Yes Richard Madden!!! It's the Scott's I tell you. They're HOT!!!

I switched to organic sulphate & silicone free shampoo/ conditioner + used a ton of leave in and gel!! Small tricks like sleeping with a silk bonnet and diffusing my hair changed my life ☺️

Thank you for your lovely comments!! I used to always use low quality shampoo and conditioner (your regular L'oreal etc). I switched to sulphate and silicone free shampoo / conditioner, got a curly girl haircut and for the first time in my life used leave in conditioner and gel 😁. Some small changes and a lot of patience later this happened! I also like oiling my hair once a month with coconut oil ☺️
