Home From Home, Of Sorts..
On arriving in Tsomoriri the driver and his cook immediately set about trying to find us accommodation.
They returned to the car looking just a little glum, worried that we might not be happy with what was on offer.
It was certainly basic:
no beds; just a mattress upon the floor.
But our experienced carers had wisely brought sleeping-bags, and a gas-fired stove.
While, fortunately for me, the room did have a sofa, of sorts, to sit on.
My life has been relatively privileged so it is no bad thing to experience the simpler life.
And on occasion, I have slept in even more modest style.
Despite the limitations, our cook produced an amazing supper.
But as far as the bathroom facilities were concerned,
a discreet veil of silence might be in order..

Beautiful view through the window. Does the candle indicate a lack of electrical power?

Yes, one of life’s regular “givens” in India, and especially in the high Himalayas..

At least the food looks good.

This was the first time I have ever taken a tour with a personal cook included in the “accessories”. It’s something I can thoroughly recommend!
