With over 52 expeditions in 172 countries including Mount Everest, Johan Ernst is a strong advocate against global warming and poverty, and a staunch supporter of education in developing countries and of the protection of endangered species. As a global adventurer for more than 20 years and a Guinness world record holder, Johan has embarked on a journey from the North Pole to the South Pole, has climbed the Seven Summits, has flown a boat across Europe, cycled from Sweden to the Sahara Desert, and a lot more.

At the talk event held at Hotel Royal Singi, he shared about his deep connection with Nepal and inspired the audience with anecdotes of his vast experiences. He says, “Don’t be afraid because something is really hard, because people keep saying that things are impossible; the impossible just seeks more time.”
