lapsang lama (team leader)
My name is Lapsang Lama and I am team leader of Alpine Adventure Team Pvt. Ltd.
Lapsang Lama saw his first light at the district of Rulal temal bolde Ward No. 4,Kavrepalanchok Bagmati Zone.
This place is regarded as one of the most remote villages of the mid-hilly regions of the of Nepal .
Now running around at his 55 – Lapsang began his mountain tourism career in the capacity of an assistant-trekking professional guide. This was some time 37 years back.
From that time he has been engaged in the mountain tourism industry in deferent occasions in the capacity of a profession trekking guide, an interpreter in various research works and a good supporter to all his administration as well as field staffs. Not only that he shares his experience to all his juniors as well, and is always in an alert about his business.
Lapsang is the opinion that a travel agency abroad has not told a tourist/trekkers everything about the Kingdom of Nepal . Some of them have talked about the Kingdom as being situated in the shadow of Everest (Which is not true), others have described it as the Mecca of hippies (Half true as it was) but the most important thing has been left unsaid. It has been forgotten to mention that Nepal is the Florence of Asia, the country of art par excellence, a wonder of the modern world where Europe of the Middle Ages can be discovered as well as a destination for all seasons.
Mr. Lama has a vast experience of trekking in all regions of the country and is well versed with socio-economic status, their culture of all available ethnic groups, situated on different trekking routes of the Kingdom. Not only that he has traveled and have run business around all the neighboring countries of Nepal I.E. Bhutan , Tibet , Sikkim , Ladhakh and Darjeeling .
All of us know that Nepal is a least roadbed country, to see her; one must travel as her people do – on foot. Lapsang specializes in taking trekkers to all regions of Nepal including remote/restricted areas (Coping with rules and regulations of course!) and allow the visitors to observe local people living their lives the way they have for centuries.
He is well adapted to trek with care and respect incorporating ecological and cultural conservation practices. He is guided by the conviction that it is always possible to honor the beliefs, dignity and environment of Nepal and her people, while exchanging ideas and information on the outside world.
Other than his mother tongue – He is well versed in Italian language, and speaks 4 (four) additional languages including English.
He has traveled extensively in Europe , south East Asian countries, and is well aware of the professional working mode and style of the European as well as of the south Asian countries and ultimately he holds the position of the chairman in his newly initiated trekking company Alpine Adventure Team Pvt. Ltd.
Social Work:
I feel close myself to nature and am very sensitive about their preservation.
A major chunk of my time is also dedicated to social services. Associating with the ‘Social Welfare Organization’ as a volunteer, I help it in providing quality education, books, foods, sports, shelter and clothing to the poor, economically backward and disabled children and also for the street children in Kathmandu.

Sales Managing Director (Pinna Massimo) Italy :- Forse avevo nove anni e, chiuso nell’angolo formato da una piccola cassapanca con la massiccia credenza di mia madre, gli occhi in una visione di monti e spazi visti da una cima.
Girando nella stanza immaginavo la stufa fissata alla parete piu’ in alto dime, come una specie di fuoco. In modo curioso e sorprendente cucinavo con la mente microporzioni di cibo in minuscoli piatti….
Per curarmi ho cominciato a leggere dosi massiccie di scapigliato e maledetto romanticismo, le origini nei 15/16 anni, i poeti beat generati, i Nuovi Mattini, ma sopratutto la voglia, non troppo celata, di fare l’Esperienza.
Era inevitabile, chi passasse di li non avrebbe potuto non essere tentato di lasciarsi trasportare, l’atteggiamento profondamente ricettivo corrispondeva all’opportunita’ di un gesto diverso.
Il Viaggio come costante metaforica e reale, frequentazioni del pensiero a cercare e trovare, gusto naturale verso le grandi culture magiche d’oriente…
Sara’ sara’ sara’ ma qualcosa si muoveva ed era molto naturale.
E intanto vita al lavoro, affacciato a curiosare oltre la superficie, molta musica, il Twin Reverb per una chitarra Gibson, blues-harp in C…
Lavoro per lo Stato, si, non si capisce ma e’ cosi’, ma ho fiducia nel freewheeling…ruota libera significa andare da qualche parte che puoi raccontare.
Piu’ o meno cosi’, vivo nel Veneto e vengo nel Nepal ogni stagione, avanti in altri mondi…. la leggenda di Hillary, le piccole avventure in himalaya o nella pianura nepalese e tornando i festival Blues in Italia, noi che siamo stati in India, che giriamo in Supramonte, che proviamo un 6c….,
E a Kathmandu’? I Coffe Shop in Freak Street, i lama tibetani, Bollywood al cinema di King’s Way e poi qualche locale qua e la’, il te’, i pasti austeri al Kimtown, i risotti buoni a casa, walkabout…
Lapsang l’ho incontrato vent’anni fa o giu’ di li’…e intanto, assieme e con molti, nella campagna, valli e monti nepalesi, su’ e giu’, in alto e in basso, salire per ridiscendere…..
Qualche artista, qualche aspirante santo e molta strada in mezzo a rinnovare la metafora che non si smentisce mai. Il Viaggio. Buon trekking a tutti.
