“Humans! They lived in a world where the grass continued to be green and the sun rose every day and flowers regularly turned into fruit, and what impressed them? Weeping statues. And wine made out of water!”

The day I added Traveller to my profile bio

The Himalayan ranges surrounding it entirely, dragons and penises (Yup!) are the welcome decoration of every house. When you start walking amid the clouds, you would have landed in Bhutan 'The land of thundering Dragon '.

Inspite of the name, the people here are very polite and calm. They will help you going out of their way, and will let the pedestrians walk first, even if it meant halting the whole traffic. And ladies are just beautiful 😍😍.

Let's stop here about the country, for now. And start with the starting.

These days every second profile is that of a traveller, and every profile has wanderlust, And as described in the description, bhai tumhara peer pressure me jaan de dega, taki society cool samjhe.( Trans. : Just to be labelled as cool, I can even go any lengths)

So after 6 years years of successfully not visiting Goa, I followed doctrine of our esteemed former PM Indira Gandhi, "Chhota Parivar, Sukhi Parivar" (Tans. : Small Family, Happy Family) and lured my brother, Rijul, into all expense paid international trip and bullied and guilt my friend, Padmesh, into sharing it, aakhir dost hote kis lie h.(Let non-hindi not understand this. :P).

So all the shenanigans started in mid may, I was bored out of my mind and frustrated out of everything, and had roommates who shared a new travel story/plan every month. I decided, bhai bhi ghumega, aur international trip pe jaega, vo bhi Thailand, massaaage.... special massaaaaaage...

But return ticket was costing half my salary, and it has to be an international trip, thappa toh chahiye passport pe ( need stamp on passport), then I found out about Bhutan from a blog, an international trip you can make at the cost of Kashmir, and no terrorist either, win win. 😉😉

After extensive research for weeks, brain storming every hour and searching the shit out of Google. I finally prepared itinerary for a week long trip to Bhutan, by hiring a travel agency 😝.

Ab bhai mera ghumna aaj tak bas Apne ghar se rishtedar ke ghar ka rha h, usme bhi kabhi kabhi rasta bhatak ke crush k ghar pahunch jata tha. ESE aadmi pe kabhi bharosa na Karun, chahe vo me khud hun.

( Trans. : Jese bade videshi Aakar padh rae h)

So as a responsible traveller, I took the best possible route, paid the money and converted into a tourist. Ab itna toh chalta hai.

We should stop here for now, ek sath kitna padhoge. I will be posting for a while about Bhutan trip, even day to day experience in the following post. Aakhir bht dino Baad life me kuch exciting hua h, bragging toh Banti h.😅😅

Tab tak lie namaste, aur kya kehte h aaj kal Ciao!!
