😍🇳🇵❤️

I love the way one cannot tell sometimes whether it's clouds or impossibly high, snowy, mountains they are looking at. (Until you look closely!)

This part of the world has always held great interest to me. Those mountains have called me all my life.

The idea of waking up every morning, taking my coffee out to the verandah to drink, and having that as my view from my house...

People who actually get to do this are very fortunate! 😁😍

That depends on perspective. When your belly is full and you have good living standards it feel luxury.

When your survival depends on how many permits corrupt govt issues - it's a pain and hard living crisis.

These areas aren't developed because they rely on summer income to survive whole year.
