Muha recounts Himalayan experience


Muha has poured out his perspectives on the Himalayan experience in two interviews with Narco. That's him atop Kala Pattar, Pumori in the background, in an image grab from the video footage.

I have to say that I found him extremely articulate, intelligent, and reflective, and I have no doubt that the interviews will engage a wider audience, including those that slept while watching the first edit.

Strangely, I feel I know Muha more now, after the interview, than I did during the journey to the Himalaya and beyond.

Narco and I are also hoping that Shaz and Hilath will say a few words, as friends who remained in Male while we were out on the mountains.

In principle they've both agreed but Muha tells me Shaz is having second thoughts.

Meanwhile, I'm pleased to report, Ahmed has agreed to lend one of his songs to the documentary. It's a great, great song which I first heard two years ago when Ahmed sang it to us during one of our projects together.

So, overall I'm really pleased with the way the work is going.

Hello guys and gals. I am back. How have you been? Eid was quite uneventful except I did a PADI open water diving course and passed with flying colors. Hold it there, I still have to improve my "style" according to Mustag from Maldivers. He says me and my surf buddy Adam dive like "surfers" using hands for paddling! Heh heh. Mustag even called Adam an "iguana" and me a "clown" I don't think he was fair in calling us "clown fishes. Now Mustag wants me and Adam to come snorkelling every afternoon to improve our "style." So until me and Adam improve our style, Mustag would not allow us to join the Advance Open Water course. Sniff! Me and Adam were quite looking forward to it. In fact, Adam has all the makings of a great diver. Even Mustag secretly told Adam's brother Sobah. Al recently told me that a person's diving style is his own business and that Maldivers should allow us to go ahead with the Advanced course. But Mustag says that he cannot allow people to talk badly about Maldivers' standards. So I guess me and Adam are in a dilemma. Any of you guys know where we can enroll for an Advanced course? But I still wish it was from Maldives because we made great friends there like Zim, Nishey, Idy, etc.
