Second day of walking<\/a>with the night planned in Kutumsang, I arrive (sold out)<\/em> at the top of a plateau, on a small farm\/house. Immediately greeted with a big smile, I'm asked if I'd like a Coke, tea or a room for the night.<\/p>\n

I rest for 5 minutes, thank them politely and continue on my way. But a rather magical scene forbids me to continue, and forces me to put the bag down to take a few photos**. Immediately, the inhabitants of the house come back to me and offer me their hospitality, claiming that I look tired.<\/p>\n

Well, it's true that I'm tired, the sun sets in two hours, I've still got a good hour's walk, the place is beautiful... I'm thinking.<\/p>\n

\"welcome
welcome to Lakpa, well no to Kinjo-2<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

And why shouldn't I ask them to pitch my tent here on the plateau? I could just eat with them and pay for the meal. It's a deal, I'm staying.<\/p>\n

I put my bag down and go straight into the house for tea.<\/p>\n

\"welcome
welcome to Lakpa, well no to Kinjo-3<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Lakpa, who presents himself as the master of the house, is in fact Kinjo's younger brother, who has entrusted him with his wife and children. (Nima, Shilling and Sangay)<\/em>After that, I didn't understand everything, especially when the grandfather came into the story.<\/p>\n

They didn't want me to pay anything, as I was their guest and had spent the whole evening with them. I couldn't even pitch my tent outside, as a bed had been prepared for me.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
