Trekking to Everest Base Camp
It was over dinner at Wave Project staff training in November 2018 that I first learnt of the intentions to do a fundraising trek to Everest Base Camp, Nepal and shouted at Beth, our lovely Northern Ireland based organiser, telling her I was suuuper keen to be involved. Although my role as the coordinator at Wave Project Cymru allows me to spend lots of time in or near the sea, at home in Wales I am lucky to also have mountainous landscape within easy reach to trudge through trying to keep up with my spaniel. That being said, with the biggest mountain in Wales standing at just 1085m, the 5380m height of Base Camp made me consider how far up the trail my sheer excitement would realistically carry me.
