How do you feel when you are going to the road almost all the kids you see are waving their hand on seeing you with the innocent cute smile..
How do you feel when the people are seeing you like a hero when you cross them on road..
How do you feel when the people you never know are taking your interview about your experience whenever you stop by..
How do you feel when you started hearing the beautiful birds singing alone the travel and you are completely free from all vehicles and machine noise..
Finally how do you feel when you take a mission at 29000 feet which you thought is beyond your capacity but you achieved it with your hard work..
I'm Pretty sure you will obviously feel amazing..
such a experience i got while cycling through the beautiful mountains of himalayas. I always ask myself 'What is life?' At different times life gave me different answers...these days at living in the mountains gave me one different life lesson..Let me share that with you..
The mission is to cycle 90+ kilometre in three days at 30000 feet height mountains...
At the first day it was really really hard my entire energy was not enough to complete the first day target...my lungs were almost came out of my body for breathing, but somehow i was able to complete the day's targeted distance which was 18km..after cycling many of them got back pain foot pain head ache...to be true we don't believe we can able to finish the next day target 34 kilometers..more than feeling of happy about the first day's completion we were in a fear of how tomorrow is going to be...
As earth never stops revolving for anyone the tomorrow came at exact time (14-10-2015)9.30 we have started with the cycling..to be true i was thinking how today is gonna be..but at that time i don't know that experience is gonna be my best day of my life...
After crossing some 7 kilometers i was cycling aloe as different people are going in different speed..i stopped to drink some water...suddenly i was able to see there was a school..some kids are smiling at me and waving their hands towards me...WOW..!! The moment was....
The morning sun rays was falling on that place through the mountain peaks..The green trees are reflecting the sunlight with the snow which was stored on their leaves yesterday night...it was like the trees are smiling at the sun rise...and the river in the left side with pure water flowing and making nice music of the nature...with white rocks reflecting the sun rays...and the kids wearing the red color uniform smiling and waving their hands at you and saying "ba bayy" wow...What a beautiful day to start with :) :) :)
I stayed in that place for some time to enjoy the moment the school prayer started they sung some beautiful songs then slowly i crossed the place with complete happiness...when you are happy you tend to do more work than you usually do..same thing happened there also..i cycled more time and the uphill started..i crossed another 10 kilometer then there come across the bridge above the river...
The place was like the side of the mountains was craved to give the place for the road...it was like you are cycling through a half cave..you can see many such places in himalayas...After taking some selfi's i was eating some yummy apples which my friends plugged from the trees yesterday...It was so yummy and juicy...After crossing the place i was entering in to solan vally uphill..
Which was almost free from traffic and the place was surrounded by mountain peaks at each uphill we are gaining more height if we fall from the edge even fevi quick cant fix us back :P but the view was awesome..it reminded me...at sometimes we need to get out of comfort zone to find some beautiful things of life...
After some more travel on the beautiful road i reached solan vally..I have joined with my friends who had already reached there before me..At the time climate was started to change..The temperature started reducing ...We could see the snow fall was there in mountain..I'm seeing the snow fall for the first time in my life..it was like....


The chilliness in the air i breath went through my lungs and transferred it to my head...I can feel the blood started running through my veins with chilliness..in some time my entire body from head to feet became soooooo chill...it was sooo coooolll!! after some time my hands and legs started shivering automatically...wow another awesome experience :) by the time the mountain has fully covered with snow...the purest white snow and the rocks black color in some places surrounded with tall green trees...gave a perfect visual treat..it was like we can stand there and see it for hours and hours...After completing the lunch there we started down hill through offroad..
While starting the little rain droplets started pouring on us from sky...it was like somebody is ouring fridge water on you...by te time rain started hravely..the water was so chill out fingers are unable to even change grears...while on the way we crossed apple trees and got some for free :P On the rainey roadswe were very careful to ride the cycle and reached the base back...the same day we got many different experience snow rain and sunny...it was the best experience i ever got..by the second day ended after leaving some memory which going to be everlasting in my life..
The mission is half completed only one day to go..!! 38 kilometers today it was a sunny day...we started by 9.30 from the base...Today the magic happened like in 'avatar' what ever the rider feel the dragon will understand...today we started understanding our cycle...we have no confusion in changing gears..it was automatically happened it was another good feeling..

while going many kids were smiling and waving their hands :) I understand the power of smile that can bring us...it actually gives power,confidence & happiness..when i was cycling on the villages with helmet & gloves many villagers used to look at me when i smile & say hi they also smile ..It is nothing harm..But i actually learned through my experience something worth wile for life.when i was in delhi on the small tour..the guide was telling 'when some people smiling at you and talking be cautious' they might rob you...i was thinking the power of smile is being used for some wrong intentions..but they know the secret..that thought took me how many times i had smiled at strangers..i was shy or afraid what if they did not smile...but it is ok with no expectation something should be done..

Then we have reached the place called 'Art Gallery' at the mountains..it has all the paintings of himalaya's by nicholas..since we have seen those mountains in ral by seeing the paintings we are actually able to merge both experience and enjoy the painting...this is the first time i ever enjoyed the painting..I was thinking where would he be sitting and draw those paintings..and how beautiful the environment was at that time..Sometimes its so good to fall in our own imagination world...I realised enjoying a painting is actually depending on our own imagination...It opens your imagination to discover new things about the painting...it was like a time travel for me at that art gallery...then we started down hill after the final day experience...
We all came back in 2 to 3 hours in last day almost 17 kilometers...after that i was thinking nothing is difficult..! with proper logic and aim anything can be achieved...!! and its our mind which has to be changed & challenged..!!
By this travelling i come across some interesting people too..one girl was from taiwan she came alone to himalaya's and obviously she dont know hindi..I was inspired by meeting such a travers...and one friend was beautifully drawing the travel experience in the dairy...i was privileged to see that..one guy came to the adventure against his family & relatives...i was surprised to see a person like him...and a group of friends...who made the entire trips so fun and entertaining..like these i meet many interesting people in each of my travel..
I learned everyone is good..everyone is ready to talk...its like who starts first makes the difference.Be the first..!!
Our interest of travel starts when we seek the window seat when by the time we were kids...aspire to travel is in our soul...its the best food for this life time...!!
Lets keep moving..!
I dedicate this blog to my friend shraddha who the is main reason for my dream trip to himalayas..!
