Story4.5 out of 5 stars 45
In April 2018, Tennessee writer Mark E. Johnson embarked on an epic, grueling, and often hilarious adventure - the 80-mile trek from Lukla, Nepal, to Mount Everest Base Camp - after launching an improbable trekking company a year earlier in the flatlands of the southeastern United States. This was Johnson's first excursion out of the continental US, and this journey into the exotic country of Nepal was indeed a trial by fire (and ice).

The Climb

I love the story. It is very descriptive to where I almost feel like I'm right there with Mark and Holly. The takeaway that I got from the story is how to be resilient in times of hardship. I also realized how fortunate I am to live here in America. The simple things in life that I failed to appreciate at times when people halfway around the world does not have the privileges that I have. Mark, thank you for sharing yours and Holly’s experiences from Nashville to Nepal and vise versa. Kudos to both of you.
