Intrepid Journeys - Nepal (Craig Parker)

Television (Full Length Episode) – 2004

Shortland Street actor Craig Parker sets off backpacking for the very first time, armed with good advice — to switch off the judgmental Western part of his mind. His destination is Nepal, a country on the slopes of the Himalayas: half the size of New Zealand, home to 20 languages and 24 million people. Along the way Parker experiences a limb-stretching Nepalese barber, witnesses the funeral pyres at a Hindu temple, and tramps along the Helambu trek, which takes him to the same altitude as Aoraki-Mount Cook. This was the third of three Intrepid Journeys to Nepal; watch them all on NZ On Screen.
