TO TELL THE UN-TOLD STORIES OF SHERPAS

The interest of journalists -- Deepak Adhikari (Nepal) and Adam Popescu (USA) to work with the project -- Everest Sherpas: The High Price Tourism was triggred by the avalanche on Everest this april.

Adam had earlier been in Nepal in last autumn. He was here to write on the ecological footprints on Everest. When he met Deepak in a restaurant, they discussed about the kind of journalism they were interested in.



During the discussion both of them were in an agreement that there were several swathe of stories yet to be told. And they both found out that the story of Everest was one of them. Deepak could not deny the project when Adam came up with crowd-funding project to tell the stories of invisible people of the Himalayas.
