The stay at Gangtey in Phobjikha valley was at a local house which belonged to Kelzang Dawa who is a wood carver and his hard working wife Killey Zam who manages the house with three sons and cooks meals for the guests. Amenities were basic but I parked myself in the large kitchen and dining area where I chatted with all the family members and played with kids while sipping homemade Ara, which is a local brew made from fermented wheat.
