Künk, Andreas: In the life of the Sherpa
Irresistible for mountaineers from all over the world, but for the locals a world full of extremes, dangers and challenges: the Himalayas, the highest and largest mountain range in the world.
At the heart of this mighty mountain range lies the former kingdom of Nepal. A breathtakingly beautiful country with many facets that does not always make it easy for its inhabitants to organize their everyday lives. Despite this, or perhaps precisely because of this, the various population groups in Nepal have one thing in common: they are true masters of improvisation, frugality and perseverance. One of these peoples are the Sherpa. Once immigrants from eastern Tibet, they now populate the valleys south of the eight-thousanders Mount Everest, Lhotse and Cho Oyu. On May 29, 1953, the Sherpa Tenzing Norgay, who together with Sir Edmund Hillary achieved the first ascent of Mount Everest, brought them to the attention of the world for the first time. Their ancient culture and traditions are still alive and very much influenced by their country of origin, Tibet. Immerse yourself in the fascinating life of the Sherpa!

Brief instructions for measuring wrist size:
Loosely wrap a measuring tape or string around your wrist where you want the bracelet to sit. Make sure that it fits snugly but does not cut in. Read the circumference directly from the measuring tape or measure the length of the cord with a ruler.
Note:
The length of the bracelet may be 1 cm to 3 cm longer than the measured wrist circumference, depending on your taste.

Brief instructions for measuring the ring size:
Method 1: Measure the inner diameter of a suitable ring
- Take a ring that fits well.
- Place it on a ruler and measure the inner diameter (from one inner edge to the other).
- Compare the diameter with the table to determine the ring size.
Method 2: Measure the circumference of your finger
- Take a thin strip of paper or thread.
- Wrap it around the part of the finger where you want the ring to sit (not too tight).
- Mark the point where the ends meet.
- Measure the length of the strip in millimeters. This is the inner circumference.
- Find the right size in the table.
Tips:
- Measure the finger size in the evening, as fingers swell slightly during the day.
- If you are between two sizes, choose the larger size.
- Make sure that the ring fits over the knuckle.
