#TravelStory | A trip that I will never forget...
A trip that I'm never going to forget is when I went to this night trek in Maharashtra, which is Kalsuvai trek. It was a night trek, and trust me, it was very scary, but it was also very life changing. I'm never going to forget that scene where, you know, the moment I would turn off the torch, there was nothing that I could see, not even the people who I with. So it was quite scary, risky, but I totally loved
Hey, that does sound like quite an adventure. I've heard of the Kalsubai trek. If I'm right, that's one of the highest peaks of Maharashtra. And that whole trekking takes around five to 6 hours, right? I'd love to know more about how you went about planning for this trek. Did you go this a group? Or was it like solo trek sort of thing? So do tell us more

And then we woke up at 03:00 a.m. To complete the balance ascent. So then at 03:00 a.m. We started and oh, my God, I remember that part where there were these really long iron ladders which were connecting one peak to another and we had to cross that. And in one hand I was having torch and from another I was holding that rail and it was super scary. But by the time we reached to the summit, it had started to. We were seeing sunlight and all

And so he kept encouraging us until we reached the top. And like how you said, once you're there and you get to see those breathtaking views of nature, mother Nature around you, that is when it really hit us. And I think it was totally worth all the trouble and effort that we took. And thank you for recommending me to also check out the Kalsubay trek. Definitely will. Thanks for sharing your story. It's definitely sparked this sense of wanderlust in me

Do you want to come back? And we were three girls, and we just looked at each other, and it was so unanimous. We were like, you know what? We'll continue the trek. It was just this calling that we just kept listening that there is something for us waiting on that submit, and we want to meet that. We want to meet that part of us who really wants to see that. And luckily, nothing happened
