I spent time amidst wild ferns, wild strawberries, Iris, the fragrant wild thyme, Blue Poppy, the rare Cherry Blossom (Japanese national flower), Marsh Marigold, to name a few...
Amidst pain, snow, vanishing determination, hailstorm, thunder...
Amidst the best food on earth at that height.
Amidst calm.
Amidst colours of sparkling river water, where the colour of skin, mattered not.
A quick 5 day trek to Hamta Pass from Manali can be a life changing experience.
