This is brilliant. I haven't been to the himalayas in years but reading his stories makes me feel like I'm there. Did you actually meet him Priya? I read in the comments below that you got this video from somewhere else. I want to meet this guy and thank him for writing. And Pari tibba ofcourse. I want to go on that hill for a morning walk atleast once in my life for sure.
