Sylvie Grégoire trekked the Annapurna Circuit in November 2000
"Our trek around Annapurna was the best adventure of our lives. Apart from the
constant sun and extraordinary scenery, Ram was one of the reasons why we
enjoyed the trip so much. He was always smiling and looking out for us. He
made sure we rested enough, walked in safe spots, stayed over in the best lodges
and ate the right food. Ram was knowledgeable and we felt safe with him. We
feel very lucky to have had him as our guide and highly recommend him to
anyone".

"Ram Hari and his brother Ramji are great guides! I was fortunate to have them as guides in 1995. It is true what you said about the other guides looking to Ram Hari as an "expert". I remember one village on the Annapurna Circuit was FULL of tourists - man could not find a vacancy. Because of Ram Hari's excellent reputation we had no problem finding a place to stay. Your stay in Nepal will not be half as fulfilling without this valuable link to the Nepalese culture and country." Sincerely, Mary Leigh Henneberry - USA
This is a letter I received last month from José Miguel Molina López and some pictures he took in Nepal
"Hy Jeannette, mi name is Jose Miguel, I'm spanish but I've been in Toronto for a while. I met Ram through your web page last year and after got in touch with him I finaly went to Nepal last fall with a friend. The experience was wonderfull, we spent a great time in our treking with Ramji (younguer brother) and with his family. They are amaizing people. We learn that you are suporting Ram daughter, and we can tell you: you a making defenitely usefull investment. Se is great with english now. Ram whanted heartly thanks your support."

Feb 8th: I received this comment and a favourite picture from José
"Since I came back from Nepal, I'm missing Ram Ji
and his family like ones of my closest friends. They
touched my soul and became part of if.
For me, Ramji is that kind of real people out of the
topic about nepalis; he's strugeling betwing tradicion
and modern changes, with energy, compromised
with his country, people, culture and time. getting
involve in things deeply. Kandel family are real,
friendly, honest and ready to open their hearts to
you, ready to show you the heart of Nepal."
