Claw-some Encounters: Unveiling the World of Freshwater Crabs 🌐🦀 . . . #aquaticecosystem #freshwatercrabs #marineecosystem #natureencounter #aquaticbiodiversity #biodiversitymatters #aquatichabitat

Ever since the lease got over for Platform 1 (Rishikesh), we have been on the road. Travelling from one location to another frantically, eagerly waiting to find another space - another home. And boy, is it tough! 😩 We first started by looking around Rishikesh and Tapovan areas in a 50km radius. Not getting any substantial leads, we moved further 30kms in the mountains. We attempted to lease out a house with farmland in Dhungali village, Chamba block, Tehri Garhwal. Owned by three brothers, we made a great effort to convince them to support us in our endeavours. A lot of time and energy went into this and in the end, it did not come through. 😔 Daily negotiations occupied our time as simultaneously we lived a simple village life in Saur village. The house we rented did not have electricity, water, and even a bathroom. Our budget did not allow us to stay in any hotels/guesthouses so we decided to go forward with this till our lease agreement got finalized. ✅ We were excited about living the dream of life in a mountain mud house. Honestly, it was tough and it gave us a good space to question what “basics” mean for us individually. 🛖 We were quite disappointed by this futile attempt at leasing a house, and really began to question everything. That is the exact moment when another opportunity came our way, and it is almost like the Gods were listening to us. Will share more details about this later... 🙏 Thank you for patiently waiting and supporting us in our journey as we find another HOME for the Platform 1 community. 🏡💚 Until then...

Whenever we find ourselves in an abundant natural space, we automatically feel refreshed. There is a certain calmness that supports our creative intuitive powers. It is like a cozy space, where we can finally rest and let go of all our stresses as nature has a way- of holding you— tightly! It is such a safe feeling that cannot be expressed in words. 🦋🐢 All this cannot be ignored and biodiversity must be cherished and protected. Through sustainable choices and conscious actions, we can shape a future where nature thrives. This is our mission at #Platform1, to bring you closer to spaces that are designed for both man and nature to coexist beautifully together. 🤗🌿 On this World Environment day, we urge you to think about this. Think about your life. Think about the choices you make. Every action matters. Nature is not out there for someone else to work for. We all are a part of the web of life. It is a collective responsibility. If you are not certain where to start, don’t worry. We got you. Head to @ecovitafoundation to kickstart your journey. 🌿💚 . . . #biodiversitymatters #protectourplanet #biosecurityawareness #conservingnature #ecosystemprotection #wildlifeconservation #preservingbiodiversity #sustainableliving #natureislife #biosecuritymeasures #guardiansofbiodiversity #ecologicalbalance #protectinghabitats #biodiversityresearch #responsiblefarming #healthyecosystems #climateactionnow #natureinspires #platform1

We are working hard this summer, owing to a sweet collaboration with the folks @ecovitafoundation. Our mission is to design and curate a space, specially for you. It is time to take #Platform1 to another level this season. All of you who connected with us last year has given us a strong purpose in this world, where we imagine more nature-centric spaces— designed to heal— designed to help you function at your best. In our search for a home of OUR own, a base site which is truly ours to make decisions for, we reached a 300- year old abandoned village called Saur in Tehri Garhwal, Uttarakhand. There we got a chance to see "The Wise Wall Project" which is is an initiative to document the rural wisdom of our villages and celebrate it through art murals (@projectfuel). We also got the chance to meet Mr. Sushil Ramola who initiated a community-based eco tourism project in 2009 to boost the village economy. For our own scouting adventures, we rented out a small earthen house already inhabited by two very sweet cows. We got to live in this historical village with all it's triumphs and challenges first-hand, and we wouldn't have it any other way. Please stay tuned and join us in our journey. We hope to meet you in person very soon! . . . #unexploredindia #uttarakhandheaven #devbhoomi #ecovitafoundation #platform1 #abandonedvillage #ghostvillage #realindia #ngo #ngoindia #hiddengems #ecotourism #sustainablelife #explore #wowplanet #motherearth #voyage #culture #heritage #originsofindia #offbeat #travelindia
