Guide Bio
I discovered rafting from my home on the banks of the Trishuli River. I moved to Kathmandu from my home village Baireni when I was 15 and began my career.
I am one of Nepal’s most accomplished rafting and trekking guides, as well as safety kayaker and kayak instructor. My outstanding expedition and competition skills has lead me to become one of the leading kayakers in Nepal and my best placed result was 1st place in the Peak Challenge on the Bhote Kosi River.
I have done over 10 first descents in Tibet and was involved in setting up and establishing rafting and kayaking in Tibet having spent three seasons there with Windhorse Adventures.
I have also been involved in many expeditions and first descents in Nepal including an all Russian expedition on the Upper Arun Gorges and the Yigong Psangpo in Tibet just to name a few.
I have been involved teaching outdoor education to groups in Australia and facilitating whitewater expeditions for many different student groups. My skills in sea kayaking have grown and I have lead many expeditions in far northern Queensland, lead trips on the Franklin River in Tasmania and also have extensive experience in TAFE and Outdoor Education programs.
