Manaslu Circuit - Nepal

I had been thinking about trekking in Nepal for some years - and was originally planning to do the Annapurna Circuit. On hearing about the road and general development in the Annapurna region I decided to take the less travelled, and more remote Manaslu Circut - a 200km, 3 week camping trek just to the east of Annapurna.

Sort flights by agony with Hipmunk

If you’re anything like me - you waste ages sorting through flight options looking for the best possible flight, at the lowest cost, hopefully using the alliance that you prefer, and flying through the closest airport. I have a couple of go-to sites that I’ve been using for a few years - SkyScanner for low-cost carriers, and kayak for all others, but I’ve just added hipmunk to the list.

Hipmunk is a service from Steve Huffman, co founder of Reddit and Adam Goldstein co-founder of BookTour, that’s funded by Y Combinator.

Globe Trotter Battery Charger - £6

Updated on 17 Sep 2009 by Registered CommenterAndy Bryant

I’ve just spotted my favourite travel charger has just had a price-drop on Amazon UK.  It is now just £6.00, including 4 x 2300mAh AA batteries.  I’ve used one of these for a couple of years on various trips in the US and Europe.  It packs down to a small size especially if you are just using a US-style plug.  UK and Euro adaptors are included in the pack, and snap on, so that you can set it up for quick UK or Euro use.
