Back from the roof of the Rwenzoris. Exhausted, but even more inspired — carrying new stories of ice, people, and the incredible resilience woven into these mountains.

This was the toughest physical challenge I’ve ever faced, but also an unforgettable journey full of beauty, discovery, and learning.

Huge thanks to Rwenzori Trekking Services for their incredible collaboration, and to the amazing guides Edison, Moses, and Amos, and 15+ porters whose strength and spirit made every step possible.

Big shoutout to Rosco Bukenya, my partner in crime on this mission, for capturing every moment BTS.

And ofcourse National Geographic Society for believing in this dream and bringing it to life.
