Annapurna Base Camp Trek

Annapurna Base Camp Trek

Hi all, I am currently searching for trekking partners for the Annapurna Base Camp Trek during the second half of April. I have completed several treks across India, but all with a guide. Since ABC can be done without a guide, was thinking maybe if I can meet alteast 2-3 people who are doing the trek during the same timespan, it’d be really assuring and great!
The exact itinerary is not yet fixed, but it’d be something like 22 April – 29 April (Pokhara – Pokhara). Can be adjusted a week before (week ahead wouldn’t be good I think as the rains will become more frequent). Looking for a shoestring budget trip with minimal expense. Would be glad if some of you are planning to visit the place as well at the same time, then we can chalk out a plan!
P.S. Don’t need any guides, independent trek preferred.
A rough plan would be like –
28 April – Friday- Arrive and stay at Pokhara
29 April – Saturday – Drive to Ghandruk (if direct bus available) and stay at Chhomrong. If not, drive to Nayapul and stay at Komrong
30 April – Sunday – Trek to Himalaya, stay.
1 May – Monday- Trek to Machhapuchhare Base Camp (MBC), stay. (Can make it up to ABC if Day 2 trek doesn’t get completed as per expected)
2 May – Tuesday – Trek to Annapurna Base Camp (ABC), stay.
3 May – Wed – Trek back to Chhomrong, stay.
4 May – Thursday – Trek back to Ghandruk, travel back to Pokhara. Catch night bus to Kathmandu if required or stay in Pokhara.
5 May – Friday – Buffer day at Pokhara/Kathmandu
6 May – Saturday – Return plans from Kathmandu
