Nepali journalist Gajendra Budathoki has been actively working to protect the rights of disabled people in the country. Budathoki, who became paraplegic after a road accident eight years ago, recently went on a specially designed "doko trek" to Annapurna which he never thought would be possible. An eight year old boy from Switzerland went on the same journey as well with him. Here is what Gajendra Budathoki told SBS Nepali about his trip.
