Trekking in Nepal on HD Video

Sat, 05 Jul 2008 20:53:03 +0000

The following entry is written by Guest Blogger Tyler Bell, a blogger, vlogger, and sometimes English teacher living in Japan. You can read about his travels at his personal site www.tylerbell.net.

On May 28, 2008, Nepal elected to end 240 years of monarchy rule, giving 60-year-old King Gyanendra 15 days to pack up and clear out. The move comes after an increasing loss of power for Nepal’s royal family. In 2001, the crown prince went on a shooting spree that left the King, Queen, and himself dead. By 2006, concessions were forced upon the monarchy that ended Nepal’s status as a Hindu Kingdom and restored some democratic practices.

Furthermore, the Communist Maoist party, a politically and sometimes violent faction, has transformed from a fringe “rebel” group to an organized political party that enjoyed great success in this years first-ever election for a constitutional assembly.

I had a chance to visit Nepal recently, and with my friend went on a several week trek in the famed Everest Region. From this experience, I have produced an 11-episode high definition (HD) series chronicling our experience. Here’s the first episode:
