Hodka

We then moved on to Hodka where we enjoyed a simple but delicious lunch of lentils, potatoes and breads.  These are standard staples for villagers in the region.

Our hostess, Baya Bai showing Anju the embroidery on her blouse. The outfit is similar  to the lady at the last village, but the design on the blouse is quite different.  Each village and tribe will use different designs and stitches within their work.

Within her house was this highly decorated cabinet and stack of cases, two sights that we also saw else where.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Within her village were these two huts, example of some of those built after the earthquake using more modern materials, but in a traditional style.
