We realized early that the only way to achieve our dream was to work towards it — first hand. So we packed our bags and embarked on this journey to find the best place to live in the middle of nowhere. The Great Himalayas had the answer.
The path here wasn't a plan. It was stubbornness dressed up as vision. We travelled over 70,000 kilometres across India — sleeping under starry skies in Rajasthan, getting lost hiking alongside the coastline of Gokarna in Karnataka, exploring living-root bridges in Meghalaya, roaming the Himalayas season after season.
We met people and made friends out of complete strangers. We tasted food we never knew existed. We understood cultures and the differences. We experienced a phenomenon that is increasingly rare in modern travel: the feeling of genuinely belonging somewhere.
And here, at 2,500 metres in Tosh, Parvati Valley — we built that belonging for others.
