A Solo trip was one of the things that I had wanted to do for a long time, I wanted to feel th quiet of nature and just sit in front of a great view surrounded by nature in solitude and just enjoy t wind on my face, enjoy the natural voices and forget all the shit that has been going on in my life. But there were always some distractions or fears that forced me to procrastinate my plans.  So one fine day at 3 am in the morning (don’t ask me why I was awake till 3 am that’s another story 😜) I don’t know what came on to me and I said to myself “ Khud ko ch*tiya banana band kar aur abhi ticket book kr wrna kbhi nhi japayega, hmesha tere bahane chlte rhege ”. So I did all the planning and booked the return tickets and the hotel as well on the same night. The effect of this was from the next day I forgot all about the sh*tstorm my life was at the time and all I could think about the trip, how will I reach there, what would I do there, what are all the places there t...

  Dear Geet I have missed a couple trains. Trains that could have led me to destinations that would've been better for me?. Or maybe not. But I probably shouldn't think about it, no? Because jo kuch insaan real mein chahta ho, actual mein, vohi unhe milta hai. Toh tension kyu lena?! Chhodo.
