Our trip to Kutch, Gujarat was the first trip where I went out of Ladakh and boarded a flight, took a train and hailed the buses and taxis. I never dreamt of going somewhere faraway from my native place. It was a fascinating experience for me which I will cherish forever. The time when we visited the Khamir Organisation in Kutch, I realised that there were other people like us who herded sheep and lived a pastoral lifestyle. I was impressed by the way they worked on their looms. They welcomed us with bright smiles and were more than happy to walk us through the whole process at their organisation. They seemed genuinely happy to meet us all when I told them that I too weave and am a nomad from Ladakh.
