  • Base camp - Day 0

    On reaching base camp (on 20th May), I registered myself at the reception and I was assigned a tent. I was sharing the tent with some 11 or 12 other people, but I did not really mind. I knew that the only time I would get back to the tent was when it was time to sleep. We were also issued a pair of blankets. I spent the first day by eating, resting and exploring the river flowing near our camp. We had dinner by 7:30 PM and then a campfire at 9. The campfire was mostly people singing/dancing/doing solo presentations etc. It was good fun. The campfire ended at around 10 PM and we went off to sleep by 10:30 PM.

  • Transcript of my Saurkundi Pass Trek

    The trek to Saurkundi Pass was organized by Youth Hostels Association of India. The base camp for this trek was the Youth Hostel situated at Babeli, a small town near Kullu, Himachal Pradesh. I took a flight to Delhi, and then from Delhi I took a bus to Kullu. All the AC buses leaving for Kullu were full and it was only by good luck that I was able to get a seat in one of them.

    The next entries are about my days during the trek.

    I really did not want to come back to Bangalore and the only good thing about coming back here is that I am getting back to work with my extremely talented colleagues

  • On vacation

    I will be on vacation (I think for the first time since I started working) from 19th May to 5th of June. I am going on a trek with the Youth Hostel Association of India (YHAI). Hopefully, being on a trek (my first one) will be an enlightening experience.

    Is your workplace as cool as mine ? Can you sit like that infront of your colleagues. I doubt it :-)
