He is also one of the world's leading alpinists and extreme high altitude climbers. He has made and led many multiple Everest Summits and is the only person to have led successful expeditions to Mount Everest, The South Pole, and the North Pole.\n\nSatya has been to 194 countries, so far, and he has climbed the highest peak in 174 of them. So, most likely, he's the man who has climbed the highest point in most countries on Earth. He also walked the entire length of Africa from Tunisia to South Africa, he has circumnavigated the world in a sailboat and trekked the entire Silk Route from Mongolia to Istanbul. He is also a Fellow of the Royal Geographic Society and a TED Fellow, which is how we met! He joins us from a remote village in the Himalayas while sipping Masala Chai. "}
