En route heading for Nepal, am I excited? (11)
I believe the answer is:
mountaineer
'en route heading for nepal am i excited?' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'en route heading for nepal am i excited?' is the wordplay.
'heading for' suggests taking the first letters.
'excited?' indicates an anagram (I've seen 'excited' mean this).
The initial letter of 'nepal' is 'n'.
'en'+'route'+'n'+'am'+'i'='enroutenami'
'enroutenami' is an anagram of 'MOUNTAINEER'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for mountaineer that I've seen before include "Rock climber" , "one going up?" , "person possibly at his peak?" , "Hunt for one" , "Peak climber" .)
