Surviving in Himalaya 🇳🇵

Показать описание
■ HIMALAYA, KYANJIN GUMPA: Surviving the brutal conditions of the Himalayan mountains is no joke. But the many peoples that call these mountains home; Sherpas, Tamangs and Tibetans just to name a few, have adapted fairly well. The ox looking animal known as the Yak is key to their adaption.

Yak bulls and cows gives these mountain dwelling people milk, fur, meat, insulation, cement and also fuel! Yes, you heard right. Yak dung is used as fire-wood; fueling stoves and warm meals in communities living way above the tree-line.

Kyanjin Gumpa, which sits at 4000m above sea level at the end of Nepal's Langtang valley, actually do have a little forest growing on a mountain nearby. Exactly how, given that the mountainside the town is built on is completely treeless, I never got a proper answer to. I did notice some small streams coming down the mountain the forest grows on though, meaning it's probably perpetually naturally irrigated.

The people living in Kyanjin Gumpa hence don't have to solely rely on Yak dung for all their heat and cooking needs. But they do use it to supplement their fires, which regardless of which fuel is being burnt, are incredibly labor intensive to maintain.

Just how labor intensive exactly? Well you be the judge as I become a Himalayan Yak Dung Hunter for a day.... 😎

These 7 Himalayan videos you did should win awards. That’s how good they were. I really hope you film the trek back. So great to show us how these amazing people live. I’m blown away as I’m sure many others are as well. Thank you Harald.

This is the purest vlog I have ever watched on YouTube. Seeing Haraldo carrying doko brings smile on my face. Such a down to earth person he is.

Man I love you! Nepal is my favorite country and I've been there a bunch of times, but never the way you do. Amazing, such an inspiration.. This video put a very big smile on my face and I can't wait to go back!

Harald, The stack of stones are used in mountain and desert regions around the world to help guide hikers along paths and trails. Another use of cairn building is for rituals, burials, and memorials. In places of the world where soils are too hard to dig graves, people use rock piles to bury their dead.

I work all day and as soon as I return home, I ask my brother if Harald has uploaded a new video today. And if he has, then our family will have dinner while watching his videos. Even my grandmother adores him too much. Keep shining. We love you 🇳🇵💓

People have no regrets living in this remote village, they chosed this place over civilization like Kathmandu. It must take some effort to build a three stored hotel up there for making a living, where even food takes 3 days to travel. Massive respect to people residing near Himalayas.

19:30 elder woman was saying, " my eyes hurt, I sale woods and dried animal dung and live with the earnings".
Most of the people watching this video must be living with all the best facilities that one can get. May be you are relaxing on your couch, (it's winter here) may be you are having a hot tea or a coffee with AC or heater on. If not at least living in that part of the earth where life is easy than this and still it's never enough... Look at them man! Seeing this I doubt my understanding of happiness, satisfaction, luxury. Are we over expecting from our life? May be, yes!!!
