I was completely drained after reaching Everest Base Camp and decided to fly back rather than trek. Rajan Neupane at Nepal Helicopter Service arranged the flight quickly and professionally.
The helicopter ride was smooth, and seeing the trails I had walked for days from the sky was humbling. It saved me three days of descent. A huge thank you to the pilot and Rajan for the efficient, safe service.
