Everest Short: Ben Ayers

Whilst Kenton is in Nepal, he always bumps into a host of interesting people. This year, he is recording a series of 'Everest Shorts', in which he asks people about their take on Everest, rather than about themselves. Kenton's first guest is Ben Ayers, who has been living in Nepal since 1998. He is a journalist and filmmaker, and has also been involved in a number of non-profits during his career. Ben has experience working as a porter in the Everest region and he is passionate about telling the stories of all the Nepali workers on the mountain. He runs the Everest Live YouTube channel which provides daily updates throughout the season. Listen in and let us know what you think!
