My adventure suit

What are your two favorite things to wear?

I love to hike and trek in the mountains. Whenever I am in the wilderness of the Himalayas with my favourite trekking shoes on ,I feel I am in a fictional world full of excitement.

I really love my High ankle, waterproof trekking shoes and my trek pants with 4 chain pockets. I keep my pocket friendly gopro cams and sometimes my gloves in those pockets. It really gives me the feeling of a warrior on a mission.

When I am not hiking , just the glimpse of my shoes and trek pants give me a hell lot of positivity, as if I am transported in the shelter of nature, looking at the broader picture of life.

There are certain things in life which give us true happiness, not because we use them but because we experience something greater because of them.

Can’t live without technology

What technology would you be better off without, why?

I took a lot of time to write this post  . I thought of all the technologies around me and wasn’t able to detest any. I mean how can I face the heat of North India without an air conditioner. Then I thought of smartphones, TV , information technology, internet, all of them made our lives so easy.

On one hand it has helped us so efficiently in COVID times , on the other hand it has made us lazier . We hardly walk or cycle to go from one place to another. We hardly read books to get the answer, when it is easily available on the internet. 

You can go on and on talking about the pros and cons of technology but just like the fundamental rule of nature , balance is the  solution. We should avoid the excessive use of technology and constantly check our over dependency on it.

A Place which Feels like Home

Every now and then we feel the urge to stop doing whatever we are doing and get away from the rat race of the cities. The tension, the chaos, the worries all take a toll on us. That’s the perfect time to connect to mother nature, the wilderness, the place from where our species evolved.

That’s what I thought one month ago and decided for the Buran Ghati trek which starts from the janglik, a remote Himalayan village in the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh.

I will write about the adventure and challenges we faced during the trek soon. Till then enjoy the poetic video i posted above.
