About the Host
Born on a floating phumsang hut on Loktak Lake, Tomba has spent 22 years advocating for sustainable wetland ecology and introducing travelers to the living culture of Meitei fishermen.
"My forefathers built floating islands with woven aquatic reeds and sediment. For our family, Loktak is not just water—it is our sacred mother and our home. When you come with me on the canoe at 5:30 AM, you see the mist lift from the phumdis in complete silence. You learn how we trap fish using organic circular rings without depleting the lake. Sharing our lifestyle through 10TAG ensures that our traditional floating culture can endure sustainably."

"Gliding silently on the canoe through the morning mist with Tomba was pure magic. Stepping onto the floating phumsang and tasting hot fresh tea made by his family is a memory my partner and I will cherish forever."
"Deeply authentic, respectful ecotourism. Tomba explained the delicate balance of the phumdi ecosystem. You will not find this anywhere else on planet Earth."
