TREK THE HIMALAYS - THE FINALE.

Image
Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Natures peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. the winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy.                          This picture is forever embedded in our hearts, like the mountains are calling us. picture courtesy : Milind Nalawade   DAY -5  LAST DAY OF THE TREK Happiness is waking up with a view of snow around you, with the sweet calls of birds, with the rays of sun falling on the tents and with the gush of windy breeze. This might be the last day of our beautiful adventure but I am so sure that this is just the beginning of many more to come ahead. I am so in awe of this feeling with nature that I am just looking ahead with every kind of adventure . The protocol of our day was  7:00 a.m wake up/ tea time 8:00 a.m breakfast 9:00a.m trek by 12-1:00 a.m we reach our base came SANKRI It is not the mountain we conquer , but ourselves. The aroma of tea and the breeze is so serene that we ca

 Everyone wants to live on top of the mountains but all the happiness and growth occurs while you are climbing it. DAY 4- THE SUMMIT DAY / DAY OF CELEBRATION Finally the summit day comes , the most awaited day of our trek .It was that time when literally all that we had seen and heard is all that we would be experiencing and our spirts where super high. PROTOCOL FOR THE DAY WAS 1:30 A.M - WAKE UP CALL/TEA 2:30 A.M BREAKFAST 3:00 A.M WE START OUR TREK TO REACH THE SUMMIT POINT FOR SUNRISE Its freezing out with temperatures as low as -10*c .Waking up from our tents and going out was terrifying as well as exciting .Its so weird at times when we feel two totally contrasting emotions one where we are comfortable and one where we want to get uncomfortable and its in this transitions that we experience the growth within ourselves. It was also our D-DAY  yes its 16th February 2021 and its our 11th anniversary. One of the most beautiful days of our lives and we spent that day in the most splend

TREK THE HIMALAYAS PART 3

Image
And into the mountains i go to lose my mind and find my soul. living the rugged life Waking up in tents by the mountains and snow all around is not just a dream come true but an experience that's totally a must try for all the adventure seekers, because its not so cozy as it looks , it is freaking awesome and makes you push your levels of boundaries. so the protocol for day 2 is 7 am wake up call with tea 8 am breakfast with a view 9 am off to our next mesmerising stop that is kedarkantha base camp evening a little acclimatize walk and  later the best sunset view that blows your minds off. Somewhere between the bottom of the climb and the summit is the answer to the mystery why we climb , and its in this mystery that we find ourselves. We were at a bit better space from where we had started , soaking in all the sun that we could , trying to live the mountain life...even the smallest things like a hot cup of tea is all that we need to recharge and refuel our bodies and soul in a pla

TREK THE HIMALAYAS ( PART 1)

Image
 Hey all,    How often we find ourselves reliving few memories and moments from our days of past ? I would like to share one of those memories today with you all and that is of my  travel expedition /trek that i had done few days back. After a lot of asking around for company I decided that i shall do the trek with my sole mate as a companion and explore the wanderer kind of life ,and believe me we would always and forever look back on this trek. We had selected TREK THE HIMALAYAS for our beautiful experience and they did a wonderful job by adding stars in our trek. Trekking as such is not an easy task we need weeks and months of preprations for it. Our bodies should be well maintained and we should have been doing regular exercises. We were not a pro of those but were decent enough to try it on. We had selected a winter trek because both of us had not had a experience in snow and it sounded so dreamy and perfect. We had selected our trek in Uttarakand state and the trek was of KEDARKA
