Sinossi
Lee Prescott had twice been thwarted in his lifetime ambition – to see Mount Everest with his own eyes. This was in no way due to lack of planning, preparation or ability on his part. After a decade of procrastination, his partner decided it was time he endeavoured once more, or at least die trying. After all, his life insurance policy was still valid. If this ‘encouragement’ was not enough on its own, Prescott was further inspired to travel to Nepal by the story of the 1953 Everest expedition told in Sir Edmund Hillary’s biography.So, a questionable decision was made to follow in the footsteps of those first summiteers of the highest point on earth – by trekking the length of the little-used trail from Shivalaya to Everest Base Camp.Much to Prescott's surprise, it soon became apparent that walking the few miles to his local pub had probably not been the optimal training regime for a month-long trek across the Nepali Himalaya.Slowly Slowly is the story of a middle-aged man’s intrepid journey through rural Nepal, chronicling the sights, the sounds and the smells – yes, most definitely the smells – and the wonderful people he meets along the way.
