I remember once I was passing by a small village and stopped there to capture some pictures of pot makers. They welcomed me with my family inside their house and offered us tea. We spent 3 to 4 hours with them. They humbly asked for dinner and invited us for their family function. Before leaving they also gave us a pot full of buttermilk. Such a lovely family it was and we had the best time with them that I still remember and cherish.
