  We hiked to Renjola Pass (Difficult) via Thame instead of Gokyo
  Positives:
  - Rusha Shrestha (travel consultant), Rajin (guide) and Samarpan (porter)
  - Renjola Pass, best sight of Himalayas
  - Everest Hotel (Namche Bazar)
  - Nepali food
  - Treks Planner Nepal (TPN) borrowed duffel and sleeping bags and duvet jackets
  Negatives
  - TPN policy of less days on trail = no reimbursement to client (guide pockets money as company does not ask for guide reimbursement) and client must cover additional hotel expenses in Kathmandu
  TPN: Change this bad policy. Guides are incentivized to complete the itinerary in less days
  - Lodging in teahouses: The guide is given cash to pay for all expenses on the trip. We rated all teahouses we stayed in on a scale from 1 worst to 10 best. Two were rated a 0, as they lacked minimum sanitary standards, had no water and/or power, one a 2, four a 4, one a 5 and one an 8. Be blunt with the guide when unhappy.
  TPN: Determine a daily allowance for lodging included in trek cost and allow travelers to pay difference if interested in upgrading, as guides are incentivized to keep cost as low as possible
