One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Did my first Himalayan Trek in Oct 2015 to 'Roopkund' and on the last day, we trekked for 32 kms in the mountains as we got lost. But, it was an amazing experience in the end when we reached the base.

In Dec 2016, completed another Himalayan Trek called 'KedarKantha' at 12000 ft and stayed in -5 degrees.

In Sept 2017, successfully completed my 3rd Himalayan Trek 'Rupin Pass' which starts in Dhaula, Uttrakhand and ends in Sangla, Himachal Pradesh, i.e. 2 states over 7 days at 15250 ft.

Also did Leh Ladakh road trip with my parents in Aug 2016 for 10 days and successfully completed the road trip.

Have visited 4 Wonders of the world, i.e. Taj Mahal (India), Machu pichu (Peru 2023), Christ the redeemer (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil 2023), Chichen Itza (Mexico 2023)

I have visited 2 Natural wonders of the world -
Table Mountain (Cape Town, South Africa 2016) and Iguazu falls (argentina 2024).

Am part of the Guinness Book of World Records for participating in the 'Largest Backward Race' hosted in Mumbai, India (May 2017) with a crowd of 1007 people.

Visited India's most haunted fort 'Bhangarh' in Rajasthan.

Got an opportunity to visit India's highest Dam 'Tehri Dam' and also visited Hydro-Power plant project from inside which was amazing!!

I did my first solo trip (May 2018) to Spiti Valley for 10 days and it was a wonderful experience.

In Oct 2018, climbed world's 3rd Highest mountain KANCHENJUNGA Base Camp which is on the border of India and Nepal.

Climbed Gujarat's highest point GIRNAR mountain in Dec 2018 which has 10000 steps in 3 hours. Amazing experience.

My company sent me to work and stay in Uruguay in May 2022. So since then I am now staying and working in Montevideo, Uruguay.

In Feb 2023, visited Rio de Janeiro for the world famous carnival and also CHRIST THE REDEEMER which is one of the 7 wonders of the world. Amazing experience experiencing both.

In May 2023, I visited Peru and to the MACCHU PICHU which is also one of the 7 wonders of the world and other places in Peru too.

In September 2023, I visited Cancun, Mexico and ofcourse CHICHEN ITZA which is also one of the 7 wonders of the world and few more places in Mexico.

In December 2023, I visited Buenos Aires (capital of Argentina) and then to USHUAIA, the southernmost city of the world to celebrate my birthday and to the penguins island near Antarctica and to the Iguazu Falls (biggest falls in the world).

So it has been a wonderful experience travelling all these beautiful places and that's how travel keeps me going along with new friends on the journey.
