Ciao Mountain Zone, it is Simone again. Today is the first day trekking. We flew to Lukla and then we walked very easily in two or three hours until Phakding. As I told you yesterday I'm here with my friends for a trek in Everest Base Camp and that gives me the opportunity to have a good acclimatization and to take care of all of my clients.

Denis, as I told you yesterday night, is not with me and I'm also afraid about him. Even if I have a good person in Kathmandu that can arrange all of it for him because Denis get the passport only one week ago and for him it is the first time that he can go outside from his country Kazakhstan. But in any case tomorrow we will go to Namche, the famous village of the Sherpa, and I will send another message from there.

Sorry if I don't send emails or email message because you can not send every email is not so easy to work from the hotel [Unintelligible] I put my computer inside. But anyway it will only be short days only with voice message and then we'll start with my full report, digital report with voice message and photos. Thank you to everybody, see you tomorrow. Bye.

Simone Moro, MountainZone.com Correspondent
