Assistant Guide
Here, Sujan Thapa is just 19, but he’s already packed a lot into his life. He’s from Dhading district, Nepal, and for five years now, he’s worked as an assistant guide with Haven Holidays Pvt. Ltd. That’s right—he started working when most kids were just starting high school. Over the years, he’s picked up a ton of real-world experience, and his team sees him as incredibly dedicated. Sujan’s known for his hard work and positive energy—he’s always ready to help the main guide and make sure each trek runs smoothly.
Likewise, he’s covered a lot of ground, too. Everest region, Langtang valley, Annapurna circuit, Upper Mustang—you name it, he’s probably been there. Doing all these treks again and again means he knows the routes like the back of his hand. He handles tough terrains and high altitudes with ease, even in the far-off corners of Nepal. Plus, he's used to guiding people from all over the world, so managing groups isn’t a problem. The more he gets out there, the more confident and capable he grows.
When it comes to his job, Sujan keeps things professional. He helps trekkers with their bags, checks on their safety, and offers support right when they need it. People like how friendly and polite he is, and he doesn’t miss the little things—whether it’s tracking weather changes or keeping an eye on trail conditions. If someone’s not feeling well, he’s there with basic first aid. He’s also a strong communicator, always making sure the team works together without a hitch. The company trusts him, and so do the clients, because he sticks to the rules and cares about everyone’s safety.
More importantly, Sujan’s still learning and growing, and he’s eager to keep exploring the mountains and the tourism world. After five years, he’s become a valued part of the Haven Holidays crew. Clients often remember him for his cheerful attitude and willingness to help. He’s aiming to become a full guide soon, hoping to lead even more trekkers from across the globe. His story just shows—if you put your heart into it, even a young guy can make his mark in Nepal’s trekking business.
