PLANNING THE JOURNEY

Friends,
After the wedding of my daughter Maya to Kiron on 21 August 2010 in Trivandrum and before I get into the next professional engagement, I have decided to tour the entire country. The program is elaborate and the journey on a shoestring is expected to be completed in about four months. I will be travelling alone in a Maruti Swift and will stay with friends and well wishers. Apart from the objective of appreciating the diversity and magnificence that is Bharat, I would like to report my observations of ordinary Indians that make up this great land.

  3. What a wonderful idea...though apprehensive for those who will be concerned about your long journey...

    You are so very welcome to the financial capital of India.....

    As you journey through our wonderful country I look forward to reading about facts that are educative, disheartening and exciting...

    Good luck and God speed.....

  5. Great, my friend. A Bharat tour after getting your daughter married off. You are the same young man I met 40 years ago in the St Joseph's. Great to know that even your kanjoosi too has remained the same. Shoestring budget, staying with friends, and traveling in Maruti swift all alone even without wife...Anyway looking forward to travel with you digitally.

  9. Hi Chetan,
    There are very few who actually get an opportunity to do exactly what they want to do, atleast once in our lifetime. Go for it , but keep safe and keep well. We'll journey with you in spirit.
