panoramic valley, changing many shades of color and depth of
far-off mountains with the rising and setting sun.
The
host - Mr. Kishore, is staying in the homestay with his
wife Shobhna. After many years of professional work,
Mr. Kishore decided to get settled in his father's home in
Matiana, where he loves to take care of his home and the Apple
Orchard around the house.
Kishore takes immense satisfaction
in taking care of his guests and in making them feel at home.
His warm and generous nature influence many interesting
conversations on life, local lifestyle, current affairs, etc.,
while enjoying morning breakfast on the terrace or while
sipping the evening tea. Shobhna, on the other hand makes sure
that the guest is served the best cuisine of his/her choice by
working with the locally employed staff from the village.
Being an amazing cook, she makes sure that the guests taste
both regional and other wise popular specialty dishes.
