By far my favorite Indian TH-cam channel. It is would be an understatement to call this mere 'content' even if one were to add a superlative before the word like 'superb content' or 'fantastic content'. This is more than mere content, especially since as he himself points out in many of the videos, these are practices and ways of life that are quickly dying out or becoming obsolete as the whiff of modern conveniences reaches such a cut-off and neglected area as Zanskar. It's probably a good thing in some ways at least because although it may seem like a novel, interesting, or even an adventurous way to live from the vantage point of our lifestyles flushed with modern comforts, it also involves a lot of drudgery and back-breaking work and I think better connectivity and some mechanical aid won't be a bad thing for these hard-working people.
Anyway, the point is that due to various reasons the lives and lifestyles being showcased in many of these videos will not exist as they do today in even a decade. Therefore, these videos serve as high-quality documentary evidence of how life is lived by many in far-flung corners of this country. Lives that are unique, difficult, full of compassion for each other and for their surroundings, and most importantly lives that are full, complete in ways different from own but complete nonetheless.
So, I'd like to thank you for doing what you are doing, I believe you do it mainly for yourself since you seem to be enjoying what you do, which I think is often, if not always one of the best ways to do something meaningful. But in doing so, in doing something that you seem to enjoy and find meaning in, you are also helping to bring to light a world that may not exist a few years down the line. To say nothing of the spillover effect of these videos in making us question our own narrative of what it means to live a life, and to live it well, what it means to live with difficulty built into the fabric of our existence as if often the case with the lives you bring to light for us, and what it means to find compassion and a semblance of rhythm within such a life, which these people seem to be managing much better than us. These are questions so many of us grapple with in our day-to-day lives and in showing us lives so radically different from our own and yet, as I mentioned, seemingly convivial and complete, I think you are also helping many of us find a clue, a correct piece that lodges into the jig-saw puzzle of life and I'd like to sincerely thank you for that.
Best,
D
This made my day! Thank you so much for your kind words.
after having 3 drinks down...I play your videos at repeat.
I've been there in Ladakh for 4 years and through your videos I get connected to a world of compassion, a life exists in novels, poetry.
thanks buddy 🎉
'Zem' - the wooden container was and is used to store the fermented barley that eventually will turn out and strained as 'chhang' - the local beer. Zem due to its huge volume of storage is often used as synonym to person who eats a lot. So, next time a ladakhi says, "ur stomach must be a zem' , u know what they mean! 😊
Haha.. I did not know that. Very interesting. My tummy is already becoming like a Zem sitting idle at home. Looking forward to coming back to the mountains soon.
@@indiainmotion 😁, I am sure you soon will get into shape once you meet your beloved mountains! 😊
Interesting.
😄👍
it's oma Chu means milk water
It seems very easy, but walking at such height is extremely difficult. This is breathtaking, takes me back to Spiti.
That too in winter
Your SOUL is full of Sunshine ☀️.
You are my most respected travel vlogger ..Pls take care of yourself
Thank you, I will
India in motion notification always excites me ❣
A magical journey to watch this video! Thank you again for using my music. I’ve subscribed and hope to follow all your future adventures. Patrick Ussher
Thank you Patrick. Your music is enjoyable as always. Looking forward to using more of it in my future videos as well.
Whenever I am free,watch this video,addicted to this channel,watched this video over 40 times in about 2 months
I dont think words describe what you show. Your videos are more than a therapy.
The best vlogging channel on TH-cam ever. Your work is absolutely precious. You are born for a reason.
You clearly showed the extraordinary village with its very nice landscapes and the routes with very helping maps, for locals like me who even didn’t know about it.🙏🙏🙏
Glad to hear that Tsewang :)
Amazing as always. Watching your videos is meditative & joyful. Thank you for for letting us view the beautiful Zanskar valley through your breathtaking lens - Keep the videos coming!
This place looks like heaven. But only you will how extreme the weather might be. Amazing sir🙏👌🏻
THE TH-cam is crowded with travel vloggers but you are the best. Your travel lots are more of a humble study work which explores & exhibits life, ways, customs & traditions of Ladakh. Great work.
Wonderful journey across the countryside landscapes.✌️
As i have fobia of traveling. Your videos make me more stronger and helps me to come out from my comfort zone. Thank you so much 🙏🙏 I think you are India's number one youtuber who show us real beauty of Himalayas... ❤️❤️ Love from Gujarat
Beautifully serene. We are blessed that you are filming these awesome landscapes so sensitively. You are a wonderful storyteller - it's a joy to watch your films. I am humbled by your dedication to your craft.
Thank you so much!
Successful people don't become that way overnight. What most people see at a glance wealth, a great career and purpose is the result of hard work and hustle over time. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life
Totally agree with you✅ @johncluff
Just one line - Explore the unexplored ❤️
Thank you for bringing this spectacular views and beautiful stories to us. May the mountains keep you calling and offering you such stories.
Always waiting for your interesting new vlogs 👍. Love from Manipur
Anna, honestly you bring me everytime so good vibes and really it motivates me a lot 🙏 the way you go and make such amazing videos in harsh weather in such remote areas. I get so ashtounished, you walk miles and miles!! Hats off to you 🙏👌 I'm not even aware of these villages, being Indian !! 👌👌👌
Thank you..
Thank you Saravana for another Masterpiece, you always deliver breathtaking videos and your narration is so soothing and descriptive.
You are welcome :)
Watching your video is much fun and peace full. Getting to know cultures and tradition of unexplored villages of india.
ANNA YOU SERIOUSLY SHOWING A REAL PAHADI WAYYY , YOU DESERVE MORE AND MORE SUCCES ANNA LOTS OF LOVE
As you said the food was the best in Ralakung, something about this video is also the best. This is so unique. So lovely. :)
I would love to see the compilation of hard work you do to take one single walking shot (first fixing the camera, walking, coming back to pick up the camera) and so on, just like at 6:06 in this video.
That walking compilation is a good idea actually.. I will do it if I ever manage to find a right song to go with such a video.
Another masterpiece from a great masterpiece creater.
Lot of loves from kargil
Thanks Shabir

Great video again, its 6 years since I was in Ladakh but I'm tsken back to that trip everytime I watch you. Unfortunately high mountains are not going to happen now as my brother who I've done my India trips has just been diagnosed with Parkinson's and those narrow passes and paths just wouldn't work.
Sorry to hear that Ian

Thank you so much 😀
Totally mesmerizing and beautiful vlog.. peaceful vibes..👌
Best relaxation video🥰
Superb! Your videos are just a treat for sore eyes and soul! Best wishes and happy traveling.
You're a great motivation sir.
I hope that these tribes/people get some special protection and reservation by the local and central government to preserve their culture as I've personally seen a lot of people from these tribes leaving their traditional activity for doing driving, mechanical, tourism jobs in Leh.
Their reasons are also valid and obvious so i personally feel there should be some balance made between 1-culture, art, lifestyle and 2-Livelihood, survival
👍👍🙏🙏
I am afraid that that it will be hard to reverse this issue you mentioned here. Most of the youngsters in these villages are not interested in doing agriculture anymore. Actually some youngsters from Ralakung have asked the government to give them lands close to Padum and are in the process of settling down there.
Its high time for India to move out from the reservation mentality. There are so many protections and reservations so much so that Indians are not treated equally. India should stop looking at the west but take lessons from Asian success stories , particularly China.
Lovely!
Simply outstanding
Beautiful As Always 🙏
