KATHMANDU: “Do not ask how many times you will climb Mount Everest, the highest peak of the world. I continue scaling Mt Everest, and this is my passion,” said Kami Rita Sherpa while recounting his story on the recent 24th ascents to Mt Everest.

Untiring mountaineer Sherpa said this after he was welcomed at the Tribhuvan International Airport on Saturday. He had recently reached atop the mountain for the 24th time, breaking his own record in scaling the world’s highest peak.
