  • Description

    Description

    Devpur is a village in Kutch district of Gujarat, India. I live with my two children - 13 and 9, my elderly mother, my uncle and my aunt. We live in a 100+ years old heritage house and run a homestay in the property. We also run an English-medium school in the same compound. There is a mango orchard about 200 meters from the home/homestay and we run a farmstay there.
