Dear Mr. Nawang Loden Bhutia and the Buddha Blessed Travel Agency,
We would like to express our profound gratitude for the remarkable support and bravery we experienced during our stay in Lachung. Amidst the challenging circumstances, Mr. Bhutia, you shone as a beacon of hope and selflessness.
Lachung's remote beauty can be awe-inspiring yet intimidating, and the considerable distance between our hotel and the Army camp added to our anxiety and sense of isolation.
However, when we needed it most, Mr. Bhutia became a true hero. He chose to stay at a hotel near the Army camp, and each day, he trekked to keep us updated, not just offering guidance but also providing a reassuring sense of security when uncertainty loomed over us.
What distinguishes Mr. Bhutia is his unwavering dedication. He stood by us as if on duty, ensuring our safety before leaving. His actions surpassed our expectations, and he became our guardian angel in Lachung.
The pinnacle of Mr. Bhutia's heroism was arranging our evacuation via an Army helicopter and then walking all the way to Gangtok, leaving his own vehicle behind as all the roads were washed away due to the dam burst. We don't know how long it will take to rebuild those roads, and until then, his car will be parked in Lachung. This, I'm sure, will be difficult for his business. This act of selflessness left us in awe.
Words cannot adequately express our gratitude for Mr. Bhutia's kindness and support. His deeds will forever be etched in our hearts, a testament to the fact that heroes can emerge even in the remotest corners of the world.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to Mr. Bhutia and the entire Buddha Blessed Travel Agency for their unwavering support. Your actions epitomize true heroism, and we wish Mr. Bhutia all the best in life.
In the face of adversity, we had the privilege of meeting a guardian angel in Mr. Nawang Loden Bhutia, reminding us that even in the most challenging situations, heroes rise to the occasion. Our time in Lachung was undeniably challenging, but it also introduced us to a hero we will never forget.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Jennifer & Ruzbeh Davar
