We recently designed a private client journey through the lower Khumbu region of Nepal. The brief had been to create a custom adventure that combined great hiking, spectacular mountain views, and most importantly, some authentic cultural and spiritual immersion. I had spent a great deal of time with the clients discussing this last request, and we finally settled on a two night monastery-stay at one of the most genuinely welcoming gompas that I know, run by a Rinpoche of such compassion that the whole place just immediately feels like the 'real deal'. Upon arriving the guests had expressed their surprise at finding their way to such a secluded spot, to which the Rinpoche replied 'of course you did, it is karma'.
