Home Sweet Home !!!!

A big hello to all my readers out there who just happened to stumble upon this
blog....
It's all about Dharamsala and what all happens here....
Well even though my mother is the administrator of this blog I decided to present to
you what I really feel about my hometown...


My name is Naintara Gurung( that means star of one's eyes).... I was really sleepy in the picture...!
Being a teenager writing has always been my passion just like my mother's..
And what's better then getting inspired by the mountains... We all have different views upon different places... To me Dharamsala has always been more than my hometown... Its a place where I know I belong... No matter what will happen in my future this will be the one place where I can come back and relive my childhood memories..



You might want to know why this place is so special??!!!...
Dharamsala is unique, cool and definitely a very peaceful place. At times when I want to be alone, climbing or trekking up the hill near my house is one of the best experiances one can feel... Once reaching the top the only thing that I can really feel is freedom and peace... I know it might sound very philosophical but in a modernized world where violence and bloodshed is frequent everywhere Dharamsala is not anywhere near it... The culture, surroundings, people everything is just so sweet and paradise sort... I wouldn't trade this place for anything in this world....

All right enough of peace and tranquility... What about the fun and excitement???
I can understand why few people live in the big cities... Music, Movies, Malls and clubs... What more to satisfy us teens... But nope thats not how I think.. Okay I admit I wouldn't mind a mall and a theater but for what really.. Just to get a minute full of pleasure when I can get it almost everyday...


Ask where??!!!-- Mcleodgunj people!
It's so exciting to stroll down the fun and frolic filled streets of this little market... Just by looking into the faces of the foreigners spikes up the fun which I make sure I have... Shopping around this market where stuff is cheap as well as stylish, Tibetan Music playing in the air, the Tibetans busy with their business while I trouble my mother to buy me this and that(I'm a kid hello!)...
What intrigues me the most is the feeling that I get every time I'm shopping with my parents or friends OR- The foreigner friends whom I feel lucky enough to meet since my mother is a travel agent owning a retreat!...


Another factor which adds to my life are my dogs!.. So sweet and always prancing around ultimately destroying my bed, my parent's bed and not forgetting stealing away our socks and my teddy bears... Yes I still have them!..

Now what's there to talk about?!...
Dharamsala maybe small but it is most definitely one of the artistic places I've been to.... I mean where do you see monks laughing away chanting their mantras- "Om Mani Padme Hum".... This place is one heck of a place... That I really guarantee my readers... Its everything one would dream about being in.. No traffic to mess up your heads.. Sunsets and Sunrises to begin as well as end your day with.. TCV kids jumping around happily, playfully, Shopkeepers bargaining their prices with the tourists.. Where else other than Dharamsala... This is how I feel for my hometown...
What in my opinion Dharamsala really means.....
For you I don't know... You'll have to come here first right?!...

Bye for now and kindly leave a few comments.. I would be delighted to find that people actually read this article..!
