In a few weeks the rain will stop. The forests will remain green but the sky will turn into that deep blue that you can gaze at through the day. The days will be warm but there will be that slight nip in the evenings.

In a few weeks, you can come for a walk. A walk that takes you through the forests and villages of Sh*tlakhet. Over hills and valleys, over great food and the beautiful Kumaoni lifestyle. Over spending time alone and spending time learning about the forest and the people living with it.

In a few weeks come for a lodge-to-lodge hike.

A Kumaoni house in a forest. Near a village. Cut off from the world. That can only be walked up to. That's the Paathar House.

Some of life's luxuries need more deliberation.

It's the light rain, the one that starts and stops through the day, the one that seeps into the soil and the soul, the one that makes you stop, the one that brings out the sunbird, the one that takes you on a walk through greenery.

It's the light rain that symbolises Nayalap and the days at Nayalap so well.

Let life be a bit different. Let Thursdays not be spent looking forward to the weekend sitting in a cubicle under the lights while working on the quarterly numbers.

Work on the fields instead. Squat for a change. Run with your dog for a change. Think of the day and not the quarter. Take a break. No one will tell you that you deserve it. So take it for yourself.

A summer filled with lillies and daisies and butterflies, all under an oak forest. Take it easy in the Himalayas under the beautiful summer skies of Nayalap.

Go on a hike. Or don't. Listen to the birds. Or don't. Drive to a cafe. Or don't. This is your summer.

Presenting the first leg of the lodge to lodge hike.

Just scouted, it's a 9km walk through forests, farms and fields.

Take a different holiday this time. Go on a 4-day, 16km walk through the villages and jungles of the Sh*tlakhet valley.

The forests around Sh*tlakhet are truly enchanting. The different paths lead you to different worlds.

One world has a grassland. Another has a temple between two rocks. A third has pools at different levels.

An entire day can be spent getting lost in this forest.

Normalise wasting time. Normalise sitting on a bench. Normalise missing the bus or the metro. Normalise taking the CL just to be at home. Normalise staring out of windows.
