I was just excited, and before I knew it, I had come this far.

They landed in Nepal and ventured into the "world's most beautiful valley."

A crazy travel record to see, read and relive is born!


"Midnight Pizza Club (MPC)" - The three of them set out on a journey in midwinter in New York, guided by the name they were given as if by divine revelation. A week of walking through Langtang Valley in Nepal began. A four-wheel drive vehicle racing through Kathmandu, poisonous leaves that cause intense pain, a hot shower at an altitude of 2,440m, a young man who continues to rhyme in a village once destroyed by an earthquake, the Himalayan nectar "apple peach", a rotating prayer wheel, and the shadow of a conspiracy lurking (!?) After overcoming numerous crises and repeated meetings and partings, what was the scene that awaited the three of them?

This is a travel story covered in sweat, mud and love of men who eat, walk, sing, sleep, cry, laugh and get angry.
