Arrival in the Himalayas

I have arrived in the Himalayas for the yoga teacher training and in the process of preparing for the arrival of all the students.  The journey was long, but smooth... and took around 2 full days to get here in our remote mountain village called Ropa.

The bus from Delhi to Kullu (in Himachal Pradesh) was fairly comfortable by Indian standards and we arrived at our destination, to early morning birdsong and fresh, fresh air  after 14 hours of windy mountain roads ... (fortunately, our tummies were intact!)

It is much colder here than usual and about the same temperature as the UK... some trees are sprouting new leaves and there are a few pink and white blossoms around... intermingled with orange trees and lemon trees....

By our house/ashram is a river rushing through and all sorts of small farming ventures along its banks... the hills rise up around us with trees and also houses and steppe farming.... in the distance the snowy mountains help to keep us refrigerated!...

The morning is divine with the birds awakening at dawn... and such a variety i am  only starting to get to know...
