Spiti Road Trip (Day 3) – 14,100 Feet Closer to the Moon

Chandrataal isn’t a destination, it’s an experience.

Lungs burn with an intensity you’ve never felt before, and your heart thumps so violently against your ribs that it echoes in your ears. Every ten steps on the narrow dirt trail is a test of human endurance. Passing this test meant, you could witness a natural wonder like no other, failing it would be appreciated by your body.. what would you choose?

To understand how we ended up frozen to the bone at the edge of a mystical lake, we have to rewind twelve hours to the morning, when the sun was bright, our lungs were full, and the road ahead promised nothing but grand horizons.

Spiti Road Trip (Day 2) – Kaza and Beyond

Waking up in Kaza is an exercise in slow motion. You don’t just jump out of bed, you sit up, wait for your racing pulse to settle, take a deep breath of ice-cold air, and remind yourself to move with intention.

Today’s itinerary was a punishing loop through the highest inhabited pockets of the world. We were leaving the valley floor to push our bodies to the literal ceiling of the earth.

Koraput – How we experienced a piece of heaven

Koraput, a land blessed with incredible nature and innocence had always been a dream destination for me. It sports an endless vista filled with greenery, wildflowers, waterfalls and dense forests, everything that a nature lover would drool over.
The air is so clean that it almost tastes sweet and the views are completely free of any kinds of distractions. Most of Koraput is clear, pure, and exactly as nature had created it without any human adornment.

Daringbadi – Experiences, Best Resort and Tourist Places

Darigbadi is undoubtedly the coldest place of Odisha, so much so that whether there was Snowfall in Daringbadi or not has lately become the parameter of deciding if the winter was strong enough. In my eyes however, the raw natural beauty of the place is what makes it a must visit for everyone.

Perched atop 3000 ft, this quite hill station of the eastern ghats, is blessed with thick rain forest, coffee garden and green valleys all around. Even the roads are as scenic as they can get. Meandering through a think cover of green, with hills and valeys playing hide and seek with every passing kilometre, one can only praise the person who coined the term Kashmir of Odisha, to describe this gem.
