Meet some of the Kaubasis locals

The walk to the “Hut” from the Highway at Mangiro Junction can take anywhere between one and six hours.  The time it takes depends on who and how many locals we bump into on the way in. To meet, chat and hug clan members as we etch our way towards the “Hut” at Waraguma, helps me to get into the village mood and start to unwind from the hussle and bussle of town living.

Here’s a few of the locals we encountered on the road last Tuesday morning…

So far I’m on track to share share most of the photos taken last week with you alongside a few short stories. Unfortunately I’ll be heading back to Kaubasis early tomorrow morning and will be posting nix for the next week or so.

Those of you keen to see all of the photos right now… head on over to this wee photo album.
