On a fine Sunday morning on the 10th of March, 2024, me and my fellow ACCA students set off on our journey. 

Filling two huge buses, we played some tunes and headed towards on our first harvour, Trishuli where the majority of us went rafting from the Trishuli riverside resort. This was without doubt one of the most lively and fun activity of the entre excursion. 

We then enjoyed a fun DJ night where we all danced carefree, enjoying every second to the fullest and ending day one of the ACCA Programme with lots of fun and laughter! 

Tatopani Bliss: Day Two of Our ACCA Programme Excursion  

We headed towards Tatopani early on day two and never did any of us think that such long bus rides could be this fun. Well, it definitely was because of the company.

After a long bus ride, we checked into our hotel, and yet again, the real fun had begun. The night ended with mouth-watering barbeque, wonderful moves, sipping; or rather gulping of drinks and melodious singing.

Seeking Blessings and Finding Beauty: Day Three 

Day three was full of hope, love, spirituality and prayers. I consider all of us lucky to have gotten the opportunity to seek blessings from Muktinath temple and enjoy the breathtaking view of the Mustang. 

From Lo Manthang to Marpha: Days Four and Five Memories

Day four and five went by in a split second.

I still remember the chilly weather, the warmth and kindness of the people of Lo Manthang and Marpha, the homely taste of foods that were served, and the immaculate view; I can and will never stop emphasising that!

I will also never forget my dearest friend Aditya scaring me to death in the cave in Mustang, likewise the wonderful evening in Marpha -  I could make a 10-hour long movie out of that night! We then bid goodbye to the beautiful Himalayas and headed towards Kusma.

Rising Above Fears in Pokhara: My ACCA Programme Excursion

I will also never forget that day, because it was when I faced my acrophobia and as someone who is terrified of heights, actually managed to bungee jump from the world's second highest point.

It am sure it was a nightmare for the bungee master, but I did it, and I am extremely happy and proud of all my other friends who managed to jump so gracefully.

Our final destination was Pokhara, and even though we were all very excited to go and enjoy ourselves in Pokhara, all of our hearts were heavy thinking of the departure that awaited the day after.

The night in Pokhara needs no explanation!  However, the morning that followed was the toughest, packing all our things realising that the tour had come to an end wasn't easy, but we still managed to do it.

We visited The British Grammar School and then faced reality and returned home. Even though the tour came to an end, the memories never will. I can keep blabbering about it all day long beacuse it was so enchanting for all of us. 

I can't thank my friends in the ACCA programme enough for the precious memories we made and of course the teachers as well. With this, I wish time to fly by and another ACCA programme tour to welcome us all.
