Well, some go open schools! Maverick talks about the book Three Cups of Tea.
Linked by mridula. Join Blogbharti facebook group.It’s about Greg Mortenson, a climber who after his failed K2 expedition went on to conquer even greater heights. He started on a mission to build schools in the most neglected areas of Pakistan and later Afganisthan, especially in the era of 9\11 …
I think if it were me defeated to climb the K2 i would go home discouraged but look at Greg, he gets lost,treated well in korphe then decides to build school for the children who didnt have teachers and classes, he goes through rough time getting the money to built the school.
I adore greg
Norah, thanks for sharing your thoughts, it indeed is an incredible feat!
