Shefali Shah Instagram – There are certain moments/holidays which are near to perfect. This one is one such. It’s been organic, raw, authentic old world, not just the place but the unadulterated people with genuine niceness. We are in @marybuddenestate in Binsar. The nature, surrounding these quaint lodges/cottages are all one with each other. The pure air, dense yet welcoming forests, the chirping of the birds, the warmth of a fire place, the age old stone like old dog eared books with yellowing pages lying all around and the satiation that comes with being pampered with great food and love by this wonderful wonderful team. All simple, rooted, ever smiling people aiming to make each and every moment special. And Sunanda curating everything as though she knows exactly what would make us happy. This time has been about doing nothing. Relaxing in the open air surrounded by mountains and valleys. Feet tucked under warm throws, with ever flowing tea and coffee, books books and more books scattered wherever your eyes could see. Painting, reading, walking in the jungle, the air sooooo clean it almost stings your nostrils, Kumaoni food that is so authentic and abundant accentuating the greed rather than satisfying it. And my most favourite… 4 beautiful beautiful fur babies. I couldn’t have asked for anything more. @joshi_prakash_binsar @harishbisht2699 @sagaradhikari586 @shan_kar_537 @yaspalsinghkora @sundarrwt.uk_20 @sanjay.bhakuni.357 @pard_eep5446 @Iam__rohit2306 @vijendra.bisht.125
