"The Himalayas,"I said to myself as the sky grew dark around us.
The Annapurna Circuit is the most popular trek in Nepal. The entire trek lasts three weeks from start to finish, weather permitting. Most trekkers begin the trek out of Pokhara (about five hours outside of Kathmandu). From there one must obtain an easy-to-process permit in order to spend more than one night on the circuit. The area is administered by the Annapurna Conservation Area Project, which strives to preserve the cultural, and natural resources.

I remember this one night in particular, the night my trekking adventure took a turn for the worst.
A weathered but beautiful Nepalese woman greeted us upon arrival. Her hands were dirty and callused from an obvious hard day in the vertical layered fields she plowed into the mountainside. Her eyes were deep, dark, and told a long tale without her saying a word. She warmly smiled at our tired expressions and showed us to where we would spend the night. Her children played and curiously popped their heads in and out of the doorway to our room. Playfully they would yell "Namaste" then run away excited for us to respond. They were so content in their world, far away from the noise and chaos of the city; bare feet and torn clothes, but not a care in the world.
