Culture Unlock

Culture Unlock Authentic exploration of the world’s people, culture and nature. By unlocking ourselves from the "everyday routine" and bursting out of the

Culture Unlock is about reinvigorating people's lives through cultural exploration, interaction and expression. Culture Unlock curates exciting cultural events in Dance - while exploring, interacting and expressing with other like-minded souls in a relaxed and fun setting. EXPLORATION is about trying something new. Being in a new and unknown environment brings about a heightened sense of curiosity

and excitement – it’s like being a kid again!! INTERACTION is about a true connection with people, be it with those from your own home town, or those you cross paths with through travel. Interaction allows you to learn from the perspective of others, resulting in cultural open-mindedness and a heightened sense value in your own life. EXPRESSION is about the release of emotions through physical movement. Dance and body movement is a fantastic way to physically release mental blockages and refresh the mind and soul. What’s more, you body movement is like a fingerprint – it is unique to YOU! Once our minds are unlocked to experience the entire world around us, we can grow and flourish as open-minded human beings. We learn to see and appreciate things in ways we never had before. The world is more than just the "bubble" we live in.

“Sewa!” Along with hands in prayer, this is the greeting in the language of Nepal’s Indigenous Kulung people. While staying in the small village of Chhekma, we we’re being warmly greeted by every person we encounter. Travelling with the team filming Carrying Everest - a documentary exploring and understanding the Mahakulung, the region of the Kulung people. Many Kulung work as porters for the tourism industry in the Himalayas, and Carrying Everest follows the Kulung porters’ journey all the way to Everest Base Camp.

“Sewa!” This is the greeting in the language of Nepal’s Indigenous Kulung people. When we arrived in the small village of Chhekma, we were warmly greeted by every person we encountered while wandering the small streets to film. We are travelling with the team filming Carrying Everest - a documentary exploring and understanding the Mahakulung, the region of the Kulung people. Many Kulung work as porters for the tourism industry in the Himalayas, and Carrying Everest follows the Kulung porters’ journey all the way to Everest Base Camp. Now to exchange our languages 🙂

We have arrived in Chhekma, in the remote “Mahakulung” district. This is home to the Kulung People, one of many indigenous communities in Nepal. The main source of economy is agriculture, and there are many fields like this one. It took over 5 hours by jeep to get here from Phaplu airport, and for the rest of this journey. For the next 2 weeks we will explore several villages to help film the documentary . After that we will be walking all the way to Everest Base Camp!
