Himalayas

About this series

Himalaya. For many people this word is synonymous with Mount Everest, the highest mountain on earth. However, the fact that this mountain range spans a total of seven countries and is home to nine more eight-thousanders beside Mount Everest is widely unknown.

During my trip through India I ventured slowly towards north, starting from Mumbai. On the map the mountain ranges were always far away from my position until one day I disembarked the train at Dehradun and was able to catch a first glimpse at the comparably tiny foothills.

I was in awe. The next weeks turned out to be the best of my whole trip despite the considerable challenges this rough terrain poses such as terribly slow and uncomfortable travel, unreliable electricity and internet supply and increased costs of living compared to the parts of the country I had been in before.

Dieses Album soll einen Einblick in die Faszination verschaffen, die ich in diesen 4 Wochen verspürte. Ein kleiner Ausschnitt der Menschen, der Landschaft und des Zaubers den dieser Ort in sich trägt, der nicht umsonst von Hindus als Wohnsitz der Götter verehrt wird.

This set is supposed to give an insight into my fascination with this place, which I developed over the four weeks I had up there. A small overview of the people, the landscape and the magic of this part of the world, which is not called "Home of the gods" for nothing.
