Deciding on the Annapurna Circuit



Once i finally picked which trek i was going to do, and decided i wouldn't buy a guide or porter,  i made my way down to the Kathmandu Tourist Office to apply for all the relevant permits etc. Once there, by chance i said hello to the only two other people in the whole building that were applying to go trekking. Funnily enough they were doing the Anapurna Circut as well!, were massive fans of New Zealand,  aaand were leaving on the same day!, needless to say we decided to join up and do the trek together.

The next morning i met up with Brian and Paris and we walked to the bus station to catch a ride to Besisahar. The approximate time for the bus ride was surposed to be between 7-8 hours, although Murphys law decided to rear his ugly head and make it last over 10 hours. On the way we met gridline traffic twice due to massive car crashes, one i even hear took 11 lives!
