A sunny morning, as we huffed and puffed our way up a steep hillside, our guide darted up like a squirrel on a tree. We hiked past troves of rhododendron to reach her office. A bunch of women sat there giggling, knitting and documenting accounts, but welcomed us like long-lost friends as soon as we set foot in the room. From sweaters and caps to rajma and locally-produced bhang, we ended up buying everything, without them having to convince us even once.
This scene was set in Sarmoli, a small village situated right above Munsyari that shares its borders with both Nepal and Tibet, and is framed by the mighty Panchachuli Range on one side and the Gori Ganga River on the other, making for postcard-perfect scenery.
