Dear RK,

We are immensely surprised to experience your dedicated ,devotional support and hospitality during our journey from 28th Aug till 12 sep for kailash , manassarovar yatra.

Me, Dr.Prasad and his family discussed repeatedly about yours and your Nepal team support .

Particularly your support during Pokhara to Jomsom journey was extraordinary.

We all thank you from the bottom of our heart and would like to join for another journey with you whenever possible.

While going through the photos of MS and Mt.Kailash , i felt that I must visit again and spend a day at Derupuk alone watching the mount and if possible to touch mt.kailash .
