India Day 17-21: Pelling, Sikkim



















After four days of travelling I finally arrived to my destination! Pelling, Sikkim. I felt like crying. After four days of travelling, I arrived to a rainy, cold, and fully-booked pelling and I hadn't eaten in 25 hours. I went from hotel to hotel in the rain trying to find a room. Finally I got a cold dark room for just one night. The electricity was out and everything felt so so bad. But after some food and one night of good sleep I woke up at sunrise to see what I had wanted to see when I first heard of Pelling. The first rays of sunlight hitting the worlds third largest mountain, Kangchenjunga. It. Was. Amazing. I then found an amaing hotel with view of Kangchenjunga from the bed and stayed there for four days, just visiting monasteries on mountain tops, walking around, writing, painting and photographed (as I did most of the time in India hehe). It was so beautilful once it stopped raining. ah.
