The Himalayan Marmot is the new mascot for Kunzum - Give it a name and win a book
The Himalayan Marmot is the new mascot for Kunzum.com. Do you like him? But we want to give this cuddly mammal from the squirrel family a name. He has feelings too – and would like an identity of his own. Can you suggest one?
If you do, and we select it, you get to win a copy of Ajay Jain’s book, Postcards from Ladakh. Delivered anywhere in India where courier services work.
All answers must be left in the comments form only. And the competition is open till we find a suitable name. The early bird gets the book. Your time starts now!

And try to drive yourself; there is a different thrill to it than being driven by someone else.
I did so myself in July 2008, and the journey came with some learnings as it has its own challenges. Here is a practical plan you could follow to get from Delhi to Leh: [continue reading…]
