Well that was it! One week ago we decided to go up the villages in Kasol (Parvati) Valley and one hour before the buss leaves three of our friends decided they wanted to go to Manali insted. So we went without them and boy did they miss something! The view up there was amazing! All in all we went up to 3000m above sea level in the village called Kheer Ganga. A small and quite place as you will see on the pictures. A nice hotwater spring that never stops flowing and a landscape you cant imagine. It took us 8 hours to walk from Tosh (downer village) up to there as we where told it was a shortcut. In the end a way that normaly takes 4h to walk took us the dubble. But we went through two ganja feilds and a VERY deep forest! Uphill on the cliffs, past a big black rock with smal grip for the feets and curled trough the sheep paths on the mountain. We came down from the mountain and stoped for a while near a montain god and there we meet up with some other people. They had been walking for one hour when we saw them, but enough of this. The walk from the “normal” path was at first a bit boring, we where used to dangerous passes and now its all a path. But when you came to Nekthon, one of the villages on the way, the view and landscape became as a fairytale. Waterfalls at almost every corner, two villages where you enter through a big stream of water, AMAZING. I wont try to describe it but i’ll see if i can put on the pictures today or if i’ll do it later when i get to Manali.
The experience was amazing and i actually enjoyed the 8h trekking we did, very nice to see that your own body can manage such a walk and those heights. Anyway more than that i dont have, i’ll let the pictures speak for them selves =)
Tomorrow we are going to Manali to see Ram and Rajo that both have started up something in Manali now. So it will be cool to see how its all going and also see if i can find a homebase there to really start working on all my projects abroad. But while there i think i’ll have my own internet connected again or at least be more available on the internet =)
Thats it for now, with LOVE!
So arrived at Kasol around 6am in the morning, nothing open so all to do is wait. Conclusion was not to go on the night…dharamsala to kasol during day would been so much better. No one could sleep in the jeep, the driver was playing first himachal local music and then turned on some crazy techno/goa/trance from 1952. So old and so hectic and it was in the middle of the night…haha.
Anyway staying at a nice guesthouse called Sunny Place (not to much sun now though) room is simple with nice bed. Doing some yoga in the morning =) actually first day today but still its done.
Not much one can do here since its been raining all day, wind blowing and some cold. My friends from israel find it very cold here, but its nothing like the swedish winter or even easter =) The mountain view is so amazing! I have one plan to get up to a hill next to the snowy mountain but we will see if that is possible.
My cold is going away, been eating good and starting to feel a bit better. The stomake is still as it was but its going there i think =) Soon might be going up the villages and then head of to manali for a while. I’ll see if i can be at the Melah in Banjar on the 15th, would be nice to see it this year as well =)
Anyway not much more to say, with love!
So its time now! Not sure if i told you i am in Dharamsala now but today im going to Kasol for a while. To hot here…again…hopefully it will be a little cooler there or at lest something else to do! =) I dont have internet on the laptop now, we will see if it works in kasol then i’ll recharge it for a month and try to update you on whats going on. Soon i have to end the vacation and find some work. I’ve been finding some people on the road that might need my services but we will see how far we can go with this. I might end up in a callcenter down south and speak to you when your laptop is giving you problems =)
Anyway im fine, or surviving at least, with a cold and a stupid ear infection and a bad stomake but to hell with it, i’ll manage =) Its only for a while and now im going to a new place so that might work in my favour as well.
Other than that its not much to say, i’ll pack the bag and be on my way…
With Love
