Pictures from the Mountains- Finally!




Mom and baby monkey by the side of the road in Manali




Giant spider in my bathtub
Me with Mumtha at her house
One of the gift baskets I made for Mumtha's women's products. They farm, harvest and refine local fruits and plants then sell them so that they can have some financial independence. Pakaging the products as gift baskets makes them a little more expensive, bringing in more money for the women.






This is a village temple and meditation spot on a hillside in Manali. Parents bring their babies here before they are 15 mos old to shave their heads. It's good luck for the baby or something.



White water rafting















Hmmm... what is this plant? It grows all over in the mountains.
