Meet Andrea Sherpa-Zimmermann and Norbu Sherpa. Founders of the The Wild Yak Expeditions and The Butterfly Help Project.
Andrea Sherpa-Zimmermann from Switzerland and Norbu Sherpa, who has successfully climbed Mt. Everest seven times and has earned the title of Sirdar, met in 2011 when Andrea attempted to summit Cho Oyu with Norbu leading the way. They founded Wild Yak Expeditions in 2014 and were married two years later in 2016, when Andrea also conquered Mt. Everest⛰
With Wild Yak Expeditions, Norbu and Andrea not only want to make the dreams of mountaineers and adventurous travellers come true; they also want to give something back to Nepal’s people, who may not have the same chances in life.
Stay tuned for more information on Andrea & Norbu and their projects tomorrow.
