Friday, 28th April 2017, Nainital, Uttarakhand, India:

I’m notorious for my hunger pangs and the team has finally gotten used to it.

Kovid is from Nainital and he joined us in the jeep on our journey back. Once at Nainital, he showed us around some beautiful spots near the lake and took us to a small shop to enjoy deliciously made mutton and vegetarian momos.

We waited patiently till our plates arrived. I shared – yes, I told you – the mountains made me share my food with my tribe. It is, after all, a matter of survival that the mountains teach you.

Where there is food, I will go. 🙂
