It\u2019s 10 am in Kathmandu and Phurba Sherpa has just woken up. He reassures me that he hasn\u2019t been out partying; it\u2019s a rest day, apparently. He\u2019s been trekking for three weeks straight and is enjoying a ten-day break before departing for Gokyo Lakes and Everest Base Camp.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I last spoke with Phurba<\/a>, he told me that trekking isn\u2019t about reaching your destination; rather, it\u2019s about creating good moments and memories along the way. In the end, he said, it\u2019s a positive mindset that makes you a success, and in the nine months that have passed since that conversation, Phurba has undoubtedly satisfied every definition of success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In June this year, Phurba was a winner at the Wanderlust World Guide Awards<\/a>, a prestigious event celebrating the top guiding talent in the travel industry. Over three thousand guides were nominated for the award, and Phurba was crowned, from a shortlist of eleven (including two other Intrepid leaders<\/a>), as guide of the year in the outdoor\/walking category. Unsurprisingly, he\u2019s thrilled with the result. \u2018It\u2019s a big thing for Nepal\u2019s tourism sector,\u2019 he says. \u2018Nobody has won this kind of award in the past, so it\u2019s a really good thing for Nepal.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Nepal: the legendary Mountain Kingdom. A land of imposing peaks and alpine lakes, of communities clinging to impossibly steep slopes. It may come as a surprise, then, that Phurba recently found himself enamoured by the comparatively tame landscapes of Great Britain. He has just returned from a three-week adventure through the UK, one that was spent making memories and creating good moments with both former and future clients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 \u2018Oh my god,\u2019 he says, when I ask about his trip. \u2018A very beautiful country. And the food! I found a very famous English food called Greggs. Do you know it? They make sausage rolls.\u2019 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately I do know Greggs, better than I care to admit. Their day-old delights do not, to my mind, carry much cultural cachet, but the act of discovery, as many of us can attest to, is part of what makes travel so rewarding. And who am I to say that Phurba\u2019s first bite of a stale sausage roll \u2013 smothered in tomato sauce and enjoyed in Manchester\u2019s midsummer rain \u2013 is somehow inferior to my first momo (a steamed Nepali dumpling), which was drowned in chilli sauce and downed in the shadow of Everest?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few of his friends were working as porters with Intrepid and he decided to tag along; ten years later, he\u2019s officially the best outdoor guide in the world. <\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

But the UK delivered more firsts for Phurba than sausage rolls; his first time taking a train, for example, and his first ride on a double-decker bus. \u2018It\u2019s totally different from Nepal,\u2019 he says. \u2018The people and culture. The landscapes, the food.\u2019 He tells me he found a t-shirt emblazoned with \u201cSex and sausage rolls\u201d, though he\u2019d be hesitant, he admits, to wear it in Nepal \u2013\u2018It might be difficult for people to understand.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s not hard to understand is why Phurba has seen such success as a leader; after all, anyone who can summon such enthusiasm for Manchester\u2019s industrial cityscape and a \u00a31.20 sausage roll is bound to be good company wherever you go. He tells me that many Nepali wind up working in the family business \u2013 often a restaurant \u2013 but his father is a carpenter and his mother a farmer. They\u2019re a small family, meaning the 17-year-old Phurba was free, he says, to do anything he wanted. A few of his friends were working as porters with Intrepid and he decided to tag along; ten years later, he\u2019s officially the best outdoor guide in the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018My English wasn\u2019t good,\u2019 says Phurba, reflecting on his first trip as a porter. \u2018I could say hi, hello, but not much else. I was nervous because I\u2019d never been to altitude, but the other porters and guides, who\u2019d been to Base Camp many times, taught me how to pack the backpacks and carry them. They showed me how to walk along the trail.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Though Phurba claims that he\u2019d never been to altitude, he did grow up in Lukla, the gateway to Everest, which sits at 2860 metres above sea level. This would satisfy most people\u2019s definitions of altitude, but still, Phurba was worried. \u2018The porters usually rest on acclimatisation days,\u2019 he says, \u2018but I wanted to practice and see new things, so I asked the leaders if I could join the group. I didn\u2019t speak English at that time, so I didn\u2019t interact with the clients, but I walked with the leaders and assistant guides and learned a lot. They took me higher to help me acclimatise. It was very nice.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phurba originally thought that his work as a porter would be nothing more than extra income. He had no grand plans to become a guide, let alone the best guide in the world, but everyone encouraged him to continue and he realised it was an opportunity to learn English. He was given good feedback and promoted to an assistant guide, at which point he committed to becoming a full-blown leader. And though it was challenging, Phurba gave it his best. \u2018Whatever you\u2019re doing, you have to give your best,\u2019 he says. \u2018I learned so many things from every leader and guide and it\u2019s been a beautiful ten years, this time in tourism.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Phurba\u2019s first trip as a leader, in October 2018, was fully booked. \u2018I was nervous and sweating a lot,\u2019 he says. \u2018Twelve different people, twelve new faces, but it was okay once we got on the trail.\u2019 A great success, save for the fact that one person didn\u2019t make it to Base Camp; and yes, Phurba remembers everyone who didn\u2019t make it. When I show him a photo of a friend, whom Phurba had guided over eight years ago, he can immediately recall that she was forced to turn around at 4400 metres. \u2018I was an assistant guide,\u2019 he says. \u2018She is from Australia and her husband from South Africa, I think, or Spain. They\u2019re very nice.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It becomes obvious, in moments like these, how much Phurba cares about his clients. This is reflected in the number of travellers who stay in touch with him on social media, but he\u2019ll be the first to argue that there\u2019s more to being a good guide than remembering people. \u2018You have to have patience,\u2019 he says. \u2018And good communication, and patience again. Wherever you\u2019re working, in any job, you have to be patient. And give your best. It takes time, too. Sometimes people want to become a leader very quickly, but this doesn\u2019t work. If you want to be the best tomorrow, or the day after, it won\u2019t work. You need to experience five years, then ten years, and then you\u2019ll be okay. But one year, that won\u2019t do.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It follows, then, that Phurba has no intention of changing careers anytime soon. He may have reached, with this award, a professional summit of sorts, but every day in the mountains is different. There are more clients to guide, more guides to mentor, and in a couple of years he hopes to return to the UK, presumably for more sausage rolls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He remains hopeful, too, for the future of Nepal\u2019s tourism sector despite how difficult the past few years have been. Many young Nepali have left to find work overseas, including Phurba\u2019s brother, but he tells me that those who remained positive are still here, still working hard. And in the words of Phurba Sherpa \u2013 the world\u2019s best outdoor guide \u2013 it\u2019s a positive mindset, in the end, that makes you a success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
