Nima Rinji Sherpa, 18, climbed each peak with his climbing partner, Pasang Nurbu Sherpa.

Standing atop Mount Shishapangma on Wednesday morning, though, another life ambition was front of mind for the 18-year-old: to subvert the stereotype of Sherpas as mere helpers who assist foreign climbers on their ascents.

Although the word 'Sherpa' is commonly used to describe someone who is a mountain guide or porter working in the Everest area, it is in fact the name of an ethnic group of people who live in the mountains of Nepal.

This is the uplifting part here for me 👍
