Someone asked me sometime back, did any bug bite you hard anytime ? And my answer was very quick and obvious yes I got a bug and it's known as "travel".
If you are lucky to travel, you are one of the lucky soul on this amazing planet earth.
It's been an incredible few weeks here travelling places across North-East India. During this trip (I use trip word not journey as journey never ends, only trip ends), had many close interactions with people from remote villages in this amazing land. It was an eye opening experience. Really it's not so easy to remember names of each person whom we met. In many faraway locations, we did not have any common language, an exchange of smile and we were welcomed unconditionally to their houses and leaving their house without tea was an offence. As soon as we out from one house and exchanged smile with next person and we were led to his house for some more tea.
I'm really grateful to be a part of this wonderful country and really lucky to have received such warmth welcome, unconditional love from people for whom, I am unknown. I really don't have any idea of meeting them again. I can't say much, but it is sure, I will be back to this place again and again.
These black & white images, I have created in last North East India trip.
