Life in Nagaland Village: Dzuko Valley Trek and the Head Hunters of Longwa, A Vlog by Nishant Parmar

One thing said of the video is that if you love watching travel vlogs and wish they were not scripted, then you should definitely watch this. I reckon that a conversation with a friend would be most likely the occasion when a friend comes back from a memorable trip and shares his experiences with you. You may not believe that but it is the fact that the places he goes to in Nagaland look like visualized scenes from some ancient storybook. The air looks so fresh. The people look relaxed. The whole vibe appears to be different from the noisy places that we see daily.

The vlog depicts two very special experiences. The trek through the Dzuko Valley and the visit to Longwa village where the head hunters lived. Both have their own kind of magic. Each of them is a different teaching. In the aftermath of the video, both, in fact, are still with you.

Therefore, let me take you through it. What do you think? 

The Journey to Dzuko Valley

Sometimes,​‍​‌‍​‍‌ a trek can seem like a journey into your own mind. The Dzuko Valley trek is such a place. When Nishant Parmar decides to take a walk on the trail, it is almost as if the chilly breeze can be sensed on your face. The valley appears to be very serene. The green hills look like a huge soft cover. The clouds seem to be lying very close to the ground. It is hard to believe that this is real. Have you ever come across such a silent place that it makes you temporarily stop speaking?

The vlog is a testament to the unpretentiousness of the beauty of the Dzuko Valley. There is no loud music. No heavy editing. Just nature in its own talk. Nishant keeps sharing small thoughts while climbing. These small thoughts which he shares make the whole journey to be his own. You get the feeling that he is taking you in his company.

The view is the most beautiful thing at the top. It looks as if the earth is smiling when the camera opens up to the broad valley. Well, I have to say, that moment took me by surprise. It is the kind of scene that makes you put your phone aside for a ​‍​‌‍​‍‌while.

Meeting the People of Nagaland

Nagaland​‍​‌‍​‍‌ is always associated with a rich culture and nice people. Nishant does that in an excellent way. Simple conversations. They smile softly. The slow manner of life. Everything seems to be very truthful.

It is obvious how the villagers throw their love at him in a very warm way. Their houses appear to be unpretentious but are still brimming with life. Their dishes look like they are made from pure and traditional ingredients. The vlog makes you feel that people here still value real human connection.

I kept thinking that life here is so serene without a doubt. It might be the mountains. It might be the people. It might be the culture which has been like a fortress for its roots. What is your ​opinion?

The Head Hunters of Longwa Village

The original video here is just amazing. Longwa village is located right on the border between India and Myanmar. Are you kidding me? The chief of the village actually lives in a house that is both in India and Myanmar at the same time. So, having breakfast in one country and dinner in another is totally okay. Insane, right?.

Longwa is the home of the Konyak tribe. Once upon a time they were the head hunters of Nagaland. Their history is ancient. The tattoos on their body are the symbols of their history. Nishant comes across the elders who have these stories engraved on their skin. Their faces are covered with wrinkles. Their eyes are full of experiences. Talking about old days, it sounds like you have opened a history book.

The vlog also shows their respect to these old people. No dramatics. No pretension. Just plain storytelling. Their lifestyle is quiet now. They are not fighting anymore. They are mostly doing their jobs, farming, and inviting the tourists to experience their culture.

This definitely makes you think how much time can change a place. The one village that was known for its brave warriors is now opening its doors to curious travelers with ​‍​‌‍​‍‌affection.

Culture That Stays With You

This is a video documented journey that not only displays the view but also shows how well the culture of a place can influence your soul. The music. The rituals. The eating. The antique carvings. Every second of the time it takes you back to the fact that Nagaland is a very story-rich place.

Nishant is all these things but not in a heavy and formal manner. It really seems as if you are with him. By the fire. Asking the villagers. Walking through the foggy trail. Having tea after a long trek. It is his intimate sharing with you. It’s his truth.

I want to convey this idea very strongly. Sometimes the most beautiful places in the world are those which are not popular. Those where people still greet strangers. Those where the natural environment is still unspoiled. Those where stories continue to exist ​‍​‌‍​‍‌silently.

What This Vlog Really Teaches You

Travel​‍​‌‍​‍‌ is not just about seeing the views. It is about meeting new people. The silence you experience. The stories you hear. This vlog definitely conveys that. Nishant demonstrates how ordinary moments can turn into lovely memories.

Also, you get to know that Nagaland is way beyond what is written in textbooks. It is a place full of culture and charm. It has villages that are located at the border of countries. It has tribes with an ancient history. It has valleys that are incredibly beautiful.

Honestly, towards the end of the vlog, you may feel like going on a trip. I was similar. Do you want to think of it standing at Dzuko Valley and seeing the clouds slowly moving? Or sitting with the elders of Longwa and listening to the stories of the past ​‍​‌‍​‍‌world.

Conclusion

This is a vlog you have to see if you are a fan of such vlogs that are genuinely real and from the heart. It moves very slowly, but in a nice way. It is tranquil. It is filled with both culture and nature. It presents Nagaland with sincerity and affection.

My point is that there should be more vloggers like him who depict the world as it really is. Simple. Quiet. Beautiful. Nishant is the one who thinks and acts just like that.

Therefore, spend a few minutes watching his trek in Dzuko Valley and Longwa village. I guarantee that you will feel like you have been to these places, although you didn’t leave your room.

What is your opinion? Would you like to visit Nagaland ​‍​‌‍​‍‌next?
