Simone Moro Instagram – Hi guys, here I am finally landed in Kathmandu. I had a fantastic view of the Himalayan range from the window of the airplane. The weather here has been fantastic for the last two months. I’m worried about that because it’s repeating the script that until Christmas it’s beautiful and then when the mountaineering winter starts, the astronomical winter, the conditions change. However you know it, I’ve known all along, this is my 22nd winter mountaineering expedition. I will go initially to the Khumbu valley to acclimatize, already from tomorrow. I will update you day by day. I plan to do a couple of mountains above 6000 m. and then go to Manaslu base camp already acclimatized. It is clear that I am relying on both health and luck, whereas health I can think about and be as prepared as possible, the weather is beyond me. Let’s say that if there is not only bad luck in life, which has been the case in the previous four editions at Manaslu, I hope this time to have a favorable star and that at least we can play all the cards, that it is not the high snow or avalanche danger that stops everything but possibly my inefficiency or inability. I am obviously here to go to the top and not to go home the fifth time, but if it is necessary, rest assured that no one has come here to play the hero. Obviously if one comes back and puts his hand in his wallet to pay for the expedition five times, it is because he is determined and motivated to go to the top. With me will be Alex Txicon. He has already been here for a month so he is more acclimatized than I am. He will arrive a little earlier at the Manaslu base camp. I will meet him in the next few days. Now nothing, we have to go. Follow me, I will try to cheer you up with nice pictures and videos hoping they are with blue sky, Bye!
