Why I love travelling

Travelling = Self confidence + Explore + Discover + Character + Extrovert + Emotions + Talk with Self = Perfect Human

To save money was my passion before travelling becomes my passion. 

I born and brought up in middle class family. I had seen many good and bad days(mostly bad days). Whenever some good moments or happiness would coming (like going for watching movie, going to school, tuition tour, friends outing, etc), I thought about saving money.I never tell at home that I need some money for this, this, this, etc. Due to this nature, I avoided going outside. I became introvert and I was being alone at my teenager age(18–25 age). When I started to earn, I paid education loan back. I only completed my responsibility till age of 26. I had completed my 3 years of career, but my salary was very less because of lack of opportunities in my town. So I became frustrated many times and asked my self what I have did in my life, what is my life, Will I be succeeded in my life or not.

Now I thought about solution, how can I solved this problem. I come to point that to get money, I have to improve my career and should leave my hometown due to lack of opportunities. So finally, I restarted my career in other stream from zero at age of 26 and for that I left my home, hometown and shift to first Pune and then Mumbai. In Mumbai, I have to travel too much by train and I had to make conversation with many people for daily needs. So I learnt many things here like self confidence, be motivated, to do fight to get something in competitive environment or city. This things came to me after leaving my home, shift to new city and doing small amount of travelling in train.

If you miss train, then your whole schedule will be disturbed. To catch train, i have to fight with public to enter into train. That’s train life in Mumbai.

In starting 2 years in Mumbai, My salary is just okay to survive my self in Mumbai. As I have 2 days off, I mostly avoid for friends trip in this time due to lack of money and I came to my home town every weekend. That travel was also memorable because I have to change 3 train. I never became too fast in my life. I thought in train many times that my life was started to being changed. Whenever any problems I had to face, I always thought that ok, no problem, I can solve this. This attitude came to me. Whenever I frustrated, I visited Marine drive in Mumbai, sit and starred to water of tide and talk with my self.

After 2 years in Mumbai, I switched to another company and made 2 switches in 1 year and get 3X hike in 1 year (This happened due to self confidence and ability to fight) and Now I felt that I could start to fulfils my dream. 

I started to make friends in company who loves travelling and small weekend trip. I started to go for trekking, outings, exploring new places, etc… 

I liked to explore new thing on real worlds as well as virtual world (Internet). I tried to explore new things blog, vlog, etc. I came with interest to make my own vlog, blog but I didn’t have writing skill, editing skills, camera skills, not having good phone or camera. But ok… no problem…. What I knew and what I had, started with those skill and resources… I started to going to malls to record video for youtube or make train video while I was on platform. To learn new things about travel blog, vlog, I usually watched travel vlog in free time. Such a way I fall in love with travelling.

Now I came to home in weekend less frequently and I explored new places near Mumbai with friends or now I had also guts to go for solo trip. 

If I tell about my first experience of trekking with friends on Irshalgadh fort in monsoon, then It was amazing experience. We faced many hurdles on trek like very fast rain with wind when we have no place to even standing up on mountain. I can still feel that trekking experience while writing this. When I reached destination, I felt amazing, wonderful, confident (yes…I done it and I feel like water falls full of confidence falls in my heart), etc… This experience inspired me to travel a lot.

So after this experience, I started to find new places and made plan for weekend or long trip. I feel like that it was time when I never enjoyed life or can not do any thing self and for now I had ability to make trip plan my self for friends. This confidence power I built up with help for small small travelling experience. Now I started visited many places for photography or solotrip.

My last trip was to Manali in feb-2021 after lockdown. It was amazing trip. That trip was also solo trip and I joined others for camping. I made new friends and learn new things from them also. 

So about my last 2 years of experience in travelling especially trekking, I like to mention here what is benefits of travelling in our life.

  1. People 
    Meeting people from all over the world is the most rewarding part about traveling. The conversations will build knowledge and may lead to bigger opportunities. Networking is becoming a powerful tool and communication is valuable for travellers craving new experiences.
  2. Food
    The taste of an authentic dish from a different part of the world is both scary and exhilarating. For me, I enjoy tasting unique foods and some of the best meals I’ve had have been from places I typically would not consider.
    In other side,
    In our gujarati, there is saying like ‘ચાલશે, ફાવશે, ભાવશે’. This describe spirit of let go. If I don’t get this, ok, no problem, I will handle it, If I don’t like taste, ok, no problem, It is for energy not for taste. I developed this type of spirit in me. I will not become sad if I don’t get required things.
  3. Exposure
    Exposure to new environments is fulfilling and educational. Traveling takes me out of my comfort zone and it allows me to communicate to natives with different religious beliefs, cultures and ethnicities.

4. Beauty, Nature
The picturesque landscapes enhance every traveller’s experience. I enjoy taking photos and when I travel, I try to capture the natural beauty of the place I am visiting. I like sharing my photos to help bring my story to life and after getting the perfect shot, I quickly turn to my notebook to check another breathtaking site off my bucket list.

5. Chance To Build Character
In my case, I have a nature of more extrovert. Before that I had nature of very much introvert. Even I couldn’t express my feeling to any one. But I can express my feeling, talk with anyone. It gives confidence to our inner soul.

I clearly see difference between what I was and What I am now.

I love travelling now as much as I started my vlog, blog, very seriously. I made account on social media about travelling. I connected with many travellers on social media and continuously I am searching for new places on social media to visit when I get opportunity to visit.

I made following formula from my travelling experience:
