Apatani couple at home - Ziro, India

This is my entry for #monomad challenge by @monochromes.

In previous posts I have showed real life of an apatani old woman.
Now I will show the interior of the wooden house where she lives with her husband (and a dog).

Old houses here are very simple: a great room with a fire in the middle.

The kitchen is the fire, and it is used to cook.

The bed is on a side of the main room.

The husband was old and he seemed tired: he didn't do any activities, only he checked the fire, blowing on it to increase the flame.

He felt peaceful with himself and with the world. He seemed he didn't care nothing, only to receive to 'good' warm from the fire.

A sweet dog was moving around the house, curios and peaceful, and at the end it sat near the fire, next to its owner.
