Freedom is not about the size of your cage or power of your wings or non attachment to a person or a thing.
Freedom is about being truly, madly and deeply attached to your own soul that you can’t bear – if only for a moment – a life that doesn’t honor it.
– Andréa Balt

After a long tiring hike I crashed on my mattress made of white rocks, enveloped myself with a blue quilt made out of the sky. Felt nothing but bliss.🌍❤️

THE EDGE OF THE WORLD.
That’s exactly what I was thinking when I was standing on this beautiful bridge that separates Turtuk village into two parts Youl and Pharol!
No wifi, no network, limited electricity and a distinct local language (Balti), this self-sufficient border village retains the feel of another age!

You have the right to work, but never to the fruit of work. You should never engage in action for the sake of reward, nor should you long for inaction. Perform work in this world, Amala,as a woman established within herself. Without selfish attachments and alike in success and defeat. -Shri Krishna

Happiness is eating rajma chawal and a full stomach at 3001m above sea level.

Village where apricots grow wild, apparently they grow 4 different varieties of apricots and its a major source of income. Thurthuk is definitely worth visiting even to just climb on one of the trees and plucking a juicy, fleshy, sugar sweet apricot (obv I Climbed and Oh mother! They are deliriously tasty)
These kind ladies were sweet enough to fill our bags with fresh fruits when they saw me and @sonya_sandiavo drooling. 🤪

A museum decicated to the Balti kings, the exquisite artworks inside showed how artistic the locals were and still is.

“We Are Just Making Memories All Over The World”
That’s what they told me when they saw my eyes popping out with a baby-like excitement!! A German couple who I met while in Turtuk left their country 12 years back on this RV and is now travelling around the world. They are exploring India for a year now and was headed to South India from Ladakh. The guy had artificial prosthetic limbs!!! All the more reasons not to take our perfectly fit body for granted.

Oh so beautiful!
As if the scenic beauty isn’t enough, these kids with rosy cheeks, smiling, playing and running around the village lanes like naughty little angels, sure makes Thurthuk feel like paradise.

Thurthuk is a Muslim village on India-Pak border with some magnificent views ever and ancient culture.
The journey to Thurthuk was crazy and imbued a gallery of speechless beauty with stark and barren roads, marred by landslides and shooting stones. With white landscapes, craggy mountains and super narrow passes overlooking the turquoise waters of the Shyok river (urdu: literal meaning “The River of Death”) scary right?
But in me, it instilled a sense of life, I was after all going off the map to one of the remotest part of my country in early winter.

Buddha was asked, “what have you gained from meditation?”
He replied , “Nothing! However, Buddha said, let me tell you what I lost; Anger, Anxiety, Depression, Insecurity, Fear of Old Age and Death.”
“Diskit Monastery also known as Deskit Gompa or Diskit Gompa is the oldest and largest Buddhist monastery (gompa) in the Nubra Valley of Ladakh, northern India.” #ladakhdiaries #NubraValley #Himalayas #Peace #Blue
You travel to new places and you see new colours of the sun, to nourish ourselves with good people, surroundings, scenery, love, magic and beauty until you experience your life through other people and realise how we are all the same. Then we radiate this light in to our vision, perception and clarity and in turn into the world.
My want never stops in desiring, doing, breathing all the sweet things!
Meet and greet fellow travelers and experience your life through them. Spread this in to other beings which spreads to even more.
Thank you @Raybohostel

Far away from the chaos of the city, retreating with just a book, a quiet alone time, the sun shining at all its glory and surrounded by a scenary with a sight to behold was very rejuvenating.

The greedy vagabond in me got into a fix everytime I saw a milestone. My eyes wanted to see it all but time was the barrier. So the hiker in me decided to climb the pinnacle of the world , so I could see everything in panorama. The other 🐒 you see is my wildest and nuttiest travel partner.

You dance inside my chest,
where no one sees you,
but sometimes I do,
and that sight becomes this art.🍃🌿🌺🌻🌞
