This experience was magical and life changing. I don’t think I wrapped my head around the altitude which we would be in. I come from the Midwest of the U.S. so the fact that I actually made it to somewhere around 14,000 feet above level is insane!! I did start to get altitude sickness so
I did not get to make it to base camp, however, the view from where I did make it to was still magical. Let’s not forget about the horseback riding, Jorge and his co-guide were exceptional, they showed us how to steer a horse, made sure we were feeling well, and gave us lots of historical information. I traveled solo and took this trip solo but I did get to meet five other amazing people.
