Off to Nepal

Two types of men stand at the base of Mount Everest.

The first (and most common) type is the man who says, "That's incredible... I could never make it to the top."

The second type is the man who says, "That's incredible... I can't wait to see the view from the top."

- Voddie T. Baucham Jr.


Brasov, Romania (21 Mar 08)... the last time I saw snow-capped mountains

3 years ago, I went backpacking around Europe for 2 weeks with a group of friends from university. For the next 2 weeks, I'll be in Nepal for overseas training with my squadmates. Not quite Mount Everest, but close enough!

"It's not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves." - Sir Edmund Hillary, the first man (on record) to reach the summit of Mount Everest
