Imagine walking barefoot on sun-kissed rocky paths, the sun's warmth transforming you into an unrecognizable adventurer. Drifting into a dreamy sleep in the heart of the wild, with spirited horses and enchanting spirits swirling around. Each muddy bootprint leaves a mark as you venture on, your breath echoing the thrill of the journey. Surrounded by kerosene-green waters mirroring the star-studded sky, the winds roar like a majestic anthem. This is merely the opening chapter, the prelude to a narrative waiting to be written.
As my 29th birthday approached, I couldn't help but reflect on how the pandemic had left its mark on our lives, both physically and mentally. You see, I've spent the majority of my adult years away from home, chasing dreams and pursuing various endeavors. However, the concept of travel, especially solo travel, always seemed like an unattainable goal due to concerns about safety and my status as a student.
Coming from a middle-class background in India, the notion of travel was anything but spontaneous. It involved meticulous planning and rarely left room for impromptu adventures. Solo travel, particularly for a woman, felt like an uncharted territory that I longed to explore.
I clung to travel channels and vlogs, yearning for the day I could break free. It was through these digital escapes that I discovered a fresh perspective on travel. It's not just about ticking off destinations on a checklist; it's about becoming one with a place, immersing yourself in nature, celebrating diverse cultures, and relishing the sensory delights that make each location unforgettable. This kind of travel has the ability to shape and redefine who you are when you return. Thus once the world opened up so did my journey.
