Solo

You can say the effect of western movies, but I have a bucket list of my own. It has a lot of crazy stuff, and one of them was solo trip. Yeah! you read right, 'It was', cause I have marked it complete. And this post is to let people know, what they are missing.



We, people, are often afraid to meet the unknown. May it be places, people, roads etc., but these unknowns are the one's who brings the most unexpected memories you can have.

So what's a solo trip? First misunderstanding is solo is alone. Trust me, solo trip isn't a lonely trip. It's just full of new people, you may never meet in your routine. It's that trip, where you make so many new friends, from around the world.

You may meet a married couple, both stay in different cities, and meet each other in different places, every weekend. And you might have fun hanging out with them. You may meet few crazy girls from a college, and you might dance with them. You may meet a group of crazy cousins, bit drunk, and you may play Foosball with them.

You may go to a unknown trek with unknown travelers which ends up in a boat ride, And find yourself amazed. You may listen stories from other solo travelers at night, in the warmth of bonfire, and might sing a little. You may learn few lessons of life along the way, while talking with a girl who traveled thousand miles to be there.

Before ending The post, I'd like to mention a quote, one of my fellow travelers said.

" Fall in love with places, They never change! "

P.S.: Check out the below pictures with all the people mentioned above

The Book Thief

There are stories. There are good stories. And then there are stories which touch your soul. One such story is written by Markus Zusak, named as The Book thief. Narrated by the death itself, it's a story of a kid from Nazi Germany. Her name is Liesel. Living in a foster home, with her new Papa and Mama. But life is not fair with her. She has memories of a brother, she lost on a train. Her new mother is awful cook and pretty tough on her. She has nightmares every night. As she starts to live this new life on a place called Himmel Street, stuff keeps happening. She makes a best friend Rudy, who's has crush on her. Her father teaches her the art of reading from a book she has stolen from grave yard. And hence the title, the book thief. And then there's another important character, called Max. Who is a Jew in a Nazi Germany, who is given shelter in her basement. You go on a journey from a train, to a football match on street, to stealing apples and bread. From playing accordion...

Writer's block

It's a phenomenon which a writer stumbles into once in a while. Basically s/he is not able to write anything. Somehow, the thought cycle which connects to words resulting into something meaningful is broken.  In other words, Monday blues. Unable to work. But this is little different with a writer. In an office, there will be an external enforcer (a Boss, in fancy words). But with a writer, it has to be a force within. An Intuition. But that's the thing, right? The urge, the motivation, the intuition, at times, just fades out, once in a while. When the linearity of life just stops bothering you. You fall in love with the concept of dormancy. Basically you become a couch potato (Until your mom starts to scold). But I feel, sometimes this block is a necessity. In terms of  industrial engineering, it is called mandatory buffer. A system should never be run at its max capacity all the time, or it will fail. Just like humans.  In life too, we keep figuring out what's next, all ...

The Good, The Bad and The Corporate

I have often heard that, people don’t come in Black and White; they are always in the shades of grey. Confused? Let me explain. Like the old good Hindi movies, there is no absolute goodwill hero or absolute evil villain. Everyone belong in between, the scale which connects the absolute good and pure evil. But that’s something you already know, don’t you? Of course you do, because at times we behave good and bit evil as well. And this evil doesn’t mean being a bad person, it just means “Not waiting for the signal to turn green”, or “Throwing the garbage on the road” (Cause there was no dustbin around, so lame reason, Lol). My point being, everybody is bad sometime and vice a versa. So that covers the good and the bad, but what’s the corporate ha? Now these are the strangest but the smartest people on the earth (at least they think so,Lol). So being in corporate life for almost two years, I observed many people. People of my age, little bit seniors and highly seniors as well. And ...
