PART 2: Majuli Island Can you imagine the excitement of two five year olds on the day they would ride a ferryboat? Aboard the Gurkha jeep, we are back on the road again with two very enthusiatic kids. We were heading for Nimatighat in Jorhat which serves as a pier

for Majuli Island. The girls just couldn’t wait to board the ferryboat. When it arrived, they had already made plans of where they would sit and what they would climb. It had to be the terrace, they said. We sat

on sacks of sand lining the edge of the riverbank, patiently observing a slow system of organized chaos preparing for boarding. People, cargo, cars, bikes and scooters will soon pour...

from one extreme to another. Deeply affected by the Covid-19 coronavirus epidemic, the population and the mayor of the city want to move from mass tourism to a softer economy...

In terms of responsible tourism, Northeast India is particularly exemplary. Few travelers know this, but it is one of the most important areas for biodiversity (Biodiversity Hotspot), where hundreds of tribal communities live in harmony with their environment. It is understood that many people and communities are engaged in the

conservation and preservation of species and their ecosystems and ancestral traditions which are deeply interlinked. Here is a humble tribute to the anonymous heroes who fight every day to save their environment and by extension our planet. These people often

take their entire lives to protect the environment. Check them out here: Assam Jadav Payeng Jadav "Molai" Payeng is an environmental activist from the Mishing tribe on Majuli Island. He...
