 Addy was looking for a perfect gateway after the monsoons. That’s when he learnt about Sikkim and its beauty and also about the Sikkim Tamang Youth Society. He visited their Facebook page and blog to learn more about the community and was really impressed to learn about how they were trying to promote and preserve their culture and community , besides identifying Sikkim in global map. Addy was also impressed by the Tamang Selo dance. A trained dancer, himself, from SDIPA, Addy’s shown a keen interest in mastering this dance form as well.
