Way back home at Manala :

"A cold,cold January.There is a blizzard.

The storm rages for two days - howling

winds,hail,sleet,snow.Worst weather that I can recall in this hill station.

Sick of it.

Why do I stay here?

In March ,there's gentle weather at last.Peach,plum & apricot trees in blossom.So this is why I stay."

- RUSKIN BOND

This words of Ruskin Bond reminds me of my stay at Manala and the people there."Home is home no matter what the hurdles are ,there is always something to smile about".

Okay,Manala is not my home but it felt like one and am sure anyone that had been there or is planning to go would feel the same.My Love for all the strangers I met there. People like you makes me want to travel more🌍.
