Bringing in the New Year

Celebrating New Year's Eve in the unique setting of the small Indian village of Madhban was a night to remember. Elders and locals performed traditional dances as the whole village gathered to welcome the participants. Later, around a campfire, the group told stories, sang songs and drank chai to bring in the New Year.
