Ijust think its so important for the soul to get out, enjoy the outdoors when you can. it means literally the world to me because coronavirus has been really hard for people now. these hills in surrey resembled a ski resort, as families came out for their permitted daily exercise. thats despite the met office issuing a severe warning of dangerous conditions underfoot and on the roads. in many places, there have been treacherous driving conditions. the snow has fallen on ground that was already f...

Flooding. in terms of the weather, its not snowing at the moment, but the warning is certain areas could see further snow this evening up until around midnight. when we get into tomorrow, were not out of the woods because there are further warnings from the met office in place for icy conditions, because youve got these freezing conditions overnight, its not going to melt so it could be pretty tricky getting around when it comes to conditions tomorrow. on your marks, get set, go! a race to get o...

Thats the way —— that is way better than mine. i guess you might think that coming so far away, you would not be able to make friends or it might be a strange tourist experience. but i always find that some of the best ones when you come to these remote places, there are not many foreign tourists so people are just so accepting and grateful that you are here and grateful that you are here and will share everything with you. right, thats all for this week. coming up next time. rajan is here t...

I guess you might think that coming so far away, you wouldnt be able to make friends or it might be a strange tourist experience. but i always find its some of the best ones. when you come to these remote places, theres not many foreign tourists, so people are just so accepting and grateful that youre here, and will share everything with you. right, thats all for this week. coming up next time: rajan is here to look at the uphill battle europes ski resorts have faced during this winter of lockdo...

There will be a bit of snow, temperature showing signs towards the southwest. a sign of things to come. that will move its way eastwards and behind it, it opens the door to areas of low pressure which will be pushing in from the atlantic, bringing spells of rain and some brisk winds but generally speaking, a south westerly winds that will be pumping much milder air in our direction. occasionally, we will see little incursions of core theyre getting into northern areas and over high ground here, ...

Next. the worlds tallest mountain. ever since i was a kid, i dreamt of climbing mount everest. look at that! and the honey with a sting in its tail. ive got my mad honey. delicious! next this week, a visit to the worlds tallest mountain. mount everest was closed for much of 2020 because of the pandemic. but could the lockdown have been a blessing disguise for this ultimate adventure destination? the sherpas are an ethnic group from north—eastern nepal. ever since i was a kid, i dreamt of climb...

Can be difficult. while the government wants to increase the amount of people visiting each year, there are plans to put new rules on who is allowed to summit the worlds highest peak. i think requiring potential everest climbers to have previously climbed 6000 metre peaks is a great idea and also the guiding companies i think should be held to some standard. responsibility lies on the individual who is choosing to go to everest to ensure that they are properly prepared. i feel that the perceptio...

Some of the slower climbers held up those behind them, so the slowest person dictated the pace. fortunately, because our teams skill level was high enough, we could climb around people who were stuck. so we stayed on schedule, and got to the top, and came back down. i think something was lost there. it became all about whos going to get there, how fast, and what am i going to get out of that experience? and i suspect that it is only going to get worse in the future, unless there is an interventi...

Now on bbc news, the travel show. this week on the travel show, whats in store for the year ahead? i think a phrase a lot of us can expect to hear in 2021 is "documents, please. " the worlds tallest mountain. i really hope that the people who want to go and climb mount everest really understand the significance of this mountain, the sacredness of this mountain. i thought id seen everything! and a detox that is not for the squeamish. wow, the visual of it is the most shocking part.

Feel like that at all — its vast, its open. if anyone is dreaming of climbing everest, i think they should do it. it is notjust a rich persons sport. they should start climbing peaks closer to home and work their way up, claiming bigger and bigger mountains with harder terrain, and eventually find their way to the top of the world. the sherpas in the everest region are ready for tourists to come. i really hope that the people who want to go and climb mount everest really understand the signifi...
