Between Sikkim and Bhutan
What fascinates me about Bhutan is that this country in the heart of the Himalayas is completely preserved. The most ecological country in the world with a negative carbon footprint and more than 70% of its territory covered with virgin forest, Bhutan is a land of legends that calls to exceptional travel.
