“Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.” -Gustav Flaubert

“What you’ve done becomes the judge of what you’re going to do — especially in other people’s minds.  When you’re traveling, you are what you are right there and then.  People don’t have your past to hold against you.  No yesterdays on the road.” -William Least Heat Moon

Now here I am at Kashmir. Words are never sufficient to describe Kashmir and its breath taking beauty. The green and beautiful mountains covered with blue skies are worth admiring, Here are few pics when I came here few months back. So I came here only to see my father and then left for Leh.




When I left the Kashmir City and started towards Zozilla pass, the view started getting better and better. Being September and tourist season you may found lots of tourists, bikers, motorcyclists, backpackers. Its an thrilling feeling to meet so many people from different backgrounds, origins, locations, countries.  Would suggest always go for small food stops and shops as you will find better stories and memories over there.  And yes make sure to carry multiple camera batteries which will help you a lot.

Anyway mine whole ride was kind of different, with no fixed destination and timing. I stopped where ever I feel like, went where ever I enjoyed.

Zojila War Memorial

 One of most sentimental  moment of journey, when I reached here at Zozila War Memorial. As it was getting dark and temperature was decreasing, sun was setting slowly and I was here.

These are the people who goes to a tourist place, take lots of selfies with their DSLR to be posted across social media.Being a traveler is hell lot difficult task and for me this is what I am. I loves exploring places in the way, I interacts with people, talk to them, capture emotions , stay with them and this is what makes my trips different and this is why I travel solo.

This is my story of Pune to Leh and back a solo trip of 8500km across many cities including Indore,Chittorgarh, Jaipur, Amritsar, Pathankot, Srinagar, Leh, Kargil, Manali, Chandigarh, Delhi, Agra, Gwalior, Mathura, Jhansi, Bhopal, Nagpur, Bangalore. It took me 3 weeks approximately 24 days to complete the whole journey and while on the trip, I came across 100s of stories which changed the way I use to travel and see things.
