Enquiries

Send us a message

The form goes to the same inbox as the email address. Tell us these three things and we can answer properly the first time.

  1. 01
    Roughly when

    “Second half of November” is more useful than a wrong date — it lets us tell you which week has the better weather.

  2. 02
    Who is coming

    An eighty-year-old parent, a two-year-old, a knee, a diet, a dog. None of these are problems; all are easier known in advance.

  3. 03
    What you want from it

    Walking, stillness, photography, three weeks of work. This decides whether we say come — or come in a different month.

  • English, Hindi, Kumaoni
  • Ask for dates — no online calendar
  • Your details are only used to reply

Please tell us what to call you.

We need a working address to reply to.

Optional, but it is how we usually answer.

A sentence or two, so we can answer usefully.
