What connects mountain people, no matter where they come from? Perhaps it’s a shared sense of belonging, a deep connection with nature, a love for their roots, & a spirit that transcends borders.
At Himalayan Echoes, we took this question to people from different walks of life.

Day 2 began with mist, mountains and stories. 🌫️📖
Morning at Himalayan Echoes: tote bags laid out for early arrivals, cups of coffee in hand, woolly yaks watching from the Kumaon Bazaar and every chair under the trees filled by the time the first session began. 🏔️☕

We asked the young volunteers of Mountain Village Foundation for the one word that comes to mind when they hear Himalayan Echoes. 💬
Their answers capture the spirit of the festival rather beautifully and offer a few more reasons to return for the next edition. 🏔️
