The lush green Khasi and Garo hills, dotted with beautiful waterfalls, charming and friendy people, simple yet delicious food never fails to make a  place in your heart. There are several tribes in this part of the country( Garo, Khasi, Jaintia, Hajong etc.). These tribes add a lot of colour to our beautiful country with their costume, music, festivals. The weather here is very pleasant with heavy rainfall throughout the year. The country shares its border with Bangladesh. Whenever it comes to such places, I do make a point to not miss the experience of sitting in a cafe, hear the droplets of rains fall over the roof, have garama garam chai and pakoras and talk about life.
