Faces attract me a lot. I met this lovely Nepali lady, who runs a small roadside stall during my recent trip to Arunachal. quite loving she was to me, and happy being snapped. As mentioned in previous posts, Arunachal is a home to many communities. Infact, it is true with the entire North east where several communities have lived in harmony maintaining their own traditions for centuries now.

While i was travelling today in the remote hills of Arunachal Pradesh, I came across this man in the hills. He is Tenzin Lama, born in the year 1920. Does he look like a 98 year old man? He said that with much pride narrating stories from the years he remembered. He said till 1928 he didn't remember taking salt, the Britishers came to there land in the year 1942, about Indian independence..he saw it all...The life of these hills are strange, there are still no proper transport, no proper roads.. and perhaps I had not seen such jungles before... I was already tired travelling by car, and he showed no tiredness walking uphills,where i could not locate any human inhabitants nearby, single tea stall was some 8 kms from the place.
