Stay where Pashmina is produced
Stay where Pashmina is produced
Imagine living with nomadic families who herd a flock of sheep for food and the world-class Pashmina
The Homestay is located at the high altitude village of Changthang plateau called Mugleb, which is just 15Km from the world-famous Pangong Lake. Engage in the local life and pluck your fresh organic veggies from the greenhouse. The village offers you a unique experience of the Changspa region, known for Cashmere goat rearing, their unique lifestyle, and cuisine. The region also has a very old traditional museum. In winters, charges for room heating woodfire will be additional.
Guests like to eat our Ladakhi food. They say it is delicious, even when it is prepared by an elderly ama (mother) like me. I always make sure I serve them the cleanest and healthiest food. My husband is a copper artist. When guests leave us, they say ‘Julley’, and hug us. It makes us feel happy.
I became a Mountain Homestay Host in 2018, and I have hosted many travellers since then. Running a homestay has helped me and my family a lot. Not only is the solar set up in our house useful for us, but even travellers prefer to stay in our homestay because of it.
The training we got in astronomy turned out to be a life-changing experience for our village. I felt happy and proud while mapping the position of the planets and sharing the secrets of the universe with the tourists. Tourists told me that even they didn’t know so much about the dark skies!
Nice
