Hot royal Prince Harry took an official five-day tour of Nepal last month, honoring more than 8,000 people who were killed in last year’s earthquake and supporting the country’s restoration projects. On Tuesday, the charity Team Rubicon UK released new photos from his trip, revealing the prince extended his Himalyan travels to gap-year status: He stayed an extra six days to help rebuild a school in the Himalayan mountains, where the prince got sweaty, lifted things, and fulfilled your post-high school “I’ll just travel and volunteer” fantasies.

If you didn’t follow #HarryInNepal, an actual hashtag to document Prince Harry’s whereabouts, here’s a steamy photo recap just for you: He licked his lips and made speech about female equality, held some adorable chubby-cheeked babies, and failed at carving wood. He got really, really into volleyball and looked great in a uniform. Click ahead for all the best moments.
