Cross country Trip


With all the time to spare I have started planning my cross country trip. As of now one of my friends has confirmed on his joining me.

The trip will be spread across 2 weeks (15 days) and 10,000 kms. The accommodation will not be planned and we will be lodging wherever we want to. Covering most of the coast, the Deccan plateau, the Himalayas and the Rajasthan Desert. A trip that covers the whole nation and an experience that will last a life time. We will be travelling from the lowest part of the nation to the highest part of the nation from the hottest part to the coldest part.

More time will be spent driving, enjoying the environment and catching up with India. The big cities have been blocked only because of the options for our accommodation. If we have to we will even spend the night in the vehicle at the road side of a rural part of the country.

The plan is to escape from the crowd that we usually mingle in and get lost in the vast country of ours and get to know new people, places and do stuff we will usually not do.

Hope this plan materializes....

God, 10000 kms in 2 weeks is a bit of a stretch. My 3000 miles in 2 weeks was quite tiring. But I was the only driver though.

But unfair. You didn't even mention this to me.
