Since 1999, Sikkim in the Indian Himalayas has been my second home. Here I helped to set up the Bamboo Retreat Hotel and, together with our local team, enthusiastically launched the travel agency Terralaya Travels with its own tour operator.
I got to know almost every corner of this diverse region between Tibet, the third highest mountain in the world, the Kingdom of Bhutan and the Indian plains – better than almost any other ‘foreigner’. In addition to Sikkim and the surrounding regions of northeastern India, I was also able to get to know Bhutan and a great many destinations through study visits, work assignments, retreats and group tours throughout India. That’s why many see me as something of a bridge between the East and the West, especially in Europe.
And because I was originally also a tourist, I know how much you want to count on a well-coordinated support team, tasty and hygienically prepared meals and well-chosen hotels & clean accommodation when touring in such areas.
Do you have any questions? We look forward to hearing from you.
