“I had no idea where Rochel
and I were coming when Martine directed
our taxi driver up to Phyang…but our taxi driver delivered us into this wonderful
piece of heaven. What a peaceful paradise Phyang is and especially, this home.
From the moment we arrived we have felt part of this family, so welcomed and so
looked after. Thank you for opening your home to us and to others!”

“I have been coming to Ladakh
since 1985 and have seen many changes here. Your home has been an oasis of
peace for me. You have all retained the traditional Ladakhi values of
hospitality and sharing, while incorporating the broad worldview of modern
education. You family is a model and gives me hope for Ladakhis future.”- Edward Fischer, author of "Chasing the Phantom" - Canada

“It was a great delight and honor
being your guest for the past two weeks- to share part of your life. I will
never forget our detours to your father’s house, your wonderful meals Sonam,
walking together with you along the blue fields of thyme…”

“I can’t believe I’ve only been
her for 4 weeks…I feel so much at home and surrounded by love. Your kindness
and warmth has made me very happy here and the natural beauty, although
fantastic, pales in comparison to the beauty of this family. Thank you for
allowing me to help with the daily chores and to learn about Ladakhi life. It
has truly been an amazing experience. You will always be in my heart!”

“Despite our altitude sickness and
overall wackiness, you all were so comforting and understanding. Taking the tie
to teach us essential Ladakhian facts was invaluable and we greatly appreciate
it. Your home and openness were an incredible way to adjust to our time here.
The community you have shown us alleviated all our nerves and anxieties about
he rest of our trip. Thank you so much for all you have done, form the bottom
of our hearts. With much love..”

“You are my home far away from
home! My Ladakhi family..
From the first day I arrived here,
I felt so welcome…talking in the kitchen, fetching water together, reading
outside… I deeply respect the way you are living your lives here. After work
there is always laughter, time for tea, and time for each other. At the same
time you work so hard to make the house clean and comfortable, get your
children a good education, and be good Buddhists. Impressive! And everything
without tension and with big smiles!
Although I have met great host
families in different parts of the world – you are definitely the one I will
come back to.”

I felt like I was at my own home. Most peaceful place with gentle and humble people. I was uncertain whether to make a trip to phyang or not but ended up going to phyang and staying here. Unfortunately, I stayed only for a night but I am certain that I would have regretted not staying here. Next time I visit Leh, I will be spending my time here. I am already missing Nono and Soma. Thanks so much Reinchan. I hope I have got all spelling right.
ReplyDeleteThanks you so much for writing,hope we will see you soon! God bless
DeleteWe spent our first few days after arriving by plane in Ladakh in this very special home. No altitude sickness which we accredit to the excellent food, tea and comforts provided by this wonderful family. For us, travel is about experiencing different cultures in an authentic way. Rigzen, Puntsok, Sonam and Rinchen all contribute to this in their own very special ways. The beauty of the people, this home, the community is unforgettable. Thank you from the bottoms of our hearts for this perfect introduction to this amazing region.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for writing.. We had spent great time with you guys.

ReplyDeleteWe enjoyed our stay with your family so much last summer that we are returning. Although I will be working with SECMOL I will venture to visit and hike into the valley. Many good memories!
Thank You!
