Ang Chhongba Sherpa
Our Trip Leaders
Background
Ang Chhongba Sherpa is the current Chairperson of Moving Mountains Nepal.
He lives in America with his wife and children but makes regular trips back to Kathmandu and the villages we’ve developed in the Solukhumbu region. His Mum still lives in the village of Bumburi and any visitor or volunteer in Bumburi will more than likely stay in her home.
A chance meeting in the mid-nineties between the founder of Moving Mountains, Gavin Bate and a much younger Chhongba led to a friendship that has resulted in a complete turnaround for this stunningly beautiful part of the Himalayas off the traditional tourist trail.
Chhongba is the driving force behind Moving Mountains Nepal, always making himself available to promote his country and Moving Mountains.
