    I climbed Kili last Summer when I was seventeen and it was the most powerful experience I have ever felt. It is the first time I have ever had to overcome such adversities and had to ignore all the voices in my head telling me to stop. Once you reach that summit, it truly does make u see the world in a different light. I will never forget all the names of the crew that got me there. Everyone should do this and experience these feelings for themselves :)

    Amazing! It actually gives me chills just watching this as it looks so incredible. A huge congratulations on your achievement :) This is such an inspirational video and the positive energy that the African people have is so uplifting. My husband and I are climbing Mount Kilimanjaro in July and we're excited beyond words. My hubby did the trek four years ago and he always tells me how amazing it was. Since we got married it's been on our bucket list to do the trek together. To camp under the stars in Africa will be the adventure of a lifetime 🌍

    I summited Kilimanjaro on 9-30-2015 at 7:40am. That emotion you felt at the peak, I felt it too when I put my hand on the sign at Uhura Peak as I said to myself "You didn't quit." At that moment I was met with a mixture of exhaustion, relief and pride. And it got me choked up. I had took some video on my GoPro but it ran out of battery life around the time we got to the top of the Barranco Wall. You've put together a hell of a video here, though. Congratulations on you're accomplishment!

Having climbed it twice myself, and even set a world record on it in 2015, I have special memories of this beauty. And of the wonderful guides, who make sure you continue to put one foot in front of the other. Great video. Where are videos 2 & 3 ?

I've started to learn Swahili with 1 hr of practice on my way to my restaurant job just so I can speak with the natives and porters in their own language. I was so excited to know the songs you featured in your vid! I am so excited to experience that moment you described at the top of the mountain! Thanks for the vid!
