      <image:title>Northeast India - On a map, Northeast India's seven states appear isolated from the rest of the country. I began with a week in Guwahati, Assam, where I met this holy man on a tiny island in the Brahmaputra River.</image:title>

      <image:title>Northeast India - I pushed east into Nagaland, an Indian state of primordial cloud forest and ex-headhunting tribes. In the high altitude Dzukou Valley, a Naga man showed some Mumbaikers and I how to cross a stream.</image:title>

      <image:title>Northeast India - A cross in Dzukou Valley. The vast majority of the once-feared headhunting hilltribes of Nagaland are now evangelical Christians.</image:title>

      <image:title>Northeast India - Gates topped with crossed machete blades, symbols of a violent past, line the hill forest paths across Nagaland. Traditional Naga territory extends into Myanmar and south into Manipur state.</image:title>

      <image:title>Northeast India - A Nagaland State Transport bus took me south to Imphal, the state capital of Manipur. At Mother's Market, the world's largest female-only-run market, I met and chatted to these ladies playing Ludo.</image:title>
      <image:caption />

      <image:title>Northeast India - Historically, Manipur was an independent kingdom, known in ancient times as Kangleipak. The major ethnic group, to which this lady belonged, are the Meitei.</image:title>

      <image:title>Northeast India - Ema Keithel - or Mother's Market - is the workplace of a lot of happy, confident women. A lady beckoned me and proudly pushed her daughter in my direction. Little Denusya wasn't shy in the slightest.</image:title>

      <image:title>Northeast India - Few words can describe how excellent Mother's Market is. Approximately 4,000 ladies run stalls; men are welcome to shop but not to own a business. Manipur is traditionally a matriarchal society.</image:title>
      <image:caption />
    </image:image>

      <image:title>Northeast India - Smoke Break at Ema Keithel. The market was atmospheric, warm, friendly, and engaging – a spectacular display of everything good about humanity – and one of the best sights I've seen anywhere.</image:title>

      <image:title>Northeast India - After Imphal, Loktak Lake was my next destination. It was remarkably beautiful. Those are not islands; they're floating masses of vegetation, soil, and organic matter known as phumdis.</image:title>
      <image:caption />
    </image:image>
    <image:image>
      <image:loc>https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/55ca5594e4b0746d6f70ed9d/1506867870486-E7KUZF34TZIWK7OLFL0I/IMG_3206-Edit.jpg</image:loc>
      <image:title>Northeast India - Mr. Oinam Maipakchao, whose family homestay I visited, surveys his home turf around Loktak Lake from atop Leimarel hill. A true cultural ambassador for the Meitei people, he taught me a great deal.</image:title>

      <image:title>Northeast India - Phumdis are unique to Loktak. Fishermen have built huts on some of these floating islands. Standing on a phumdi is a wonderfully odd sensation.</image:title>

      <image:title>Northeast India - As I watched the sunset over Loktak Lake from my vantage point on Leimarel Hill, I looked at the surrounding hills and pondered the warnings I'd heard about them.</image:title>
      <image:caption />

      <image:title>Northeast India - Many were traditionally Naga territory. State lines drawn up after India's independence led to its bloodiest (ongoing) insurgency and Manipur's violent reputation. The Vale of Imphal is safe, however.</image:title>
      <image:caption />

      <image:title>Northeast India - At the Lai Haraoba festival nearby, I witnessed this beautiful Manipuri dance. Accompanied by music and singing, 20 women in the floodlit grounds of a temple moved anti-clockwise for hours.</image:title>
      <image:caption />
    </image:image>

      <image:title>Northeast India - Their hand movements mesmerized me. The women were in ascending age order; the younger ones checked their hand motions against their elders. The three eldest kept their eyes closed in concentration.</image:title>
      <image:caption />

      <image:title>Northeast India - Meitei girl in traditional costume for the Lai Haraoba festival, during which the Meitei welcome spring. She was one of around thirty dancers reenacting scenes from their universe creation story.</image:title>

      <image:title>Northeast India - Meitei girl taking a break from Lai Haraoba festivities. Learning about the culture of the Meitei people was a great joy and privilege. These girls wanted my photo too; foreigners are rare in Manipur.</image:title>

      <image:title>Northeast India - On Loktak, boats are human-powered, and thus, the water is clean and atmosphere tranquil. Bamboo basket traps catch fish. Suspended light bulbs attract insects, which attract fish to the traps.</image:title>
      <image:caption />
    </image:image>

      <image:title>Northeast India - Oinam Maipackchao rowed us in baking heat toward a fisherman's hut built on a floating phumdi.</image:title>

      <image:title>Northeast India - Before leaving, I saw Thang-ta, Manipur's martial art. The sun set as a boy swept and threw water in a purification ritual. The fight showed me why Manipuri men were once feared as excellent warriors.</image:title>
      <image:caption />
    </image:image>

      <image:title>Northeast India - Young Manipuris dance on the shores of Loktak Lake. Meitei culture is ancient, vibrant, and unique; it burrows into one's consciousness and remains there long after leaving. I know that I will return.</image:title>
