About me

Kai Mai on Mera Peak

Kai Mai

Adventure Photographer & Travel Advisor

Wharton School, Finance & Computer Science

I'm Kai Mai. I spent four months in Nepal, climbing Mera Peak, filming a documentary on its mad honey hunters, living in the hill villages, and came back with operators I know by name. Now I design private journeys in Nepal and Bhutan, built on those relationships, not a catalog.

Before becoming a travel advisor, I was planning expeditions and trips for family, friends, and school organizations. I bring that same level of care and attention to detail to my clients.

Whether you're planning a mountaineering expedition, safari sightseeing trip, or a relaxed leisure retirement, I focus on creating travel experiences that feel authentic and tailored to you. All you have to do is enjoy the trip.

How it works

    Discovery call

    30 minutes on Calendly, where you want to go, when, who's traveling, and what kind of trip fits you.

  2. 2

    Custom plan

    I draft an itinerary around your pace and interests, matched to operators I've worked with on the ground.

  3. 3

    Refine together

    We align on routes, permits, guides, and logistics until the plan feels right, then I coordinate the details.

  4. 4

    Go

    You travel with vetted locals and my support before and during the trip, including WhatsApp while you're there.
