Hills that kisses clouds

I didn't expect to find India

Taking pictures while traveling is a piece of good memories that we can admire but travel writing is living that moment which makes us capable to admire the same feeling which we have experienced. Travel writing is converting the beauty of nature, the mist, the murmering music of rain drops into words which can only be done by a person who can understand the nature as well as understanding the audience. India is a place with full variety of cultures, language, religion but still live in harmony which only a handful or less countries have. We have sweat absorbing heat of the sun in West- thar desert Rajasthan and blood Freezing climate in the Himalayas to humid sub tropical climate in North East. Kerala, a state in the tail of India is famous for its peaks and also backwaters. Munnar a popular hill station on India is home to the tallest peak in South india and is known as 'anamudi' it's a word in the local language meaning elephant Mountain. It's situated at a elevation of 2695 metre above sea level. A person who has love for open view, peaceful atmosphere will immediately fall in love with this place. It's a perfect spot to hike and get in close contact with nature, the place with no network will be the most beautiful which only a person who has experienced will understand. A person who like to travel and person who love to travel will experience it in almost two different ways. You will need a perfect companion to live the trip to its fullest, if you can't find like minded people like yourself make your pen and book your companion which will know your emotions. No one knows you better than yourself if you love yourself there will be no need to worry, in fact in the end what you only have will be yourself . Travel with the intention of creating and making memories that last for a lifetime. When you travel solo you can get a chance to know yourself more if you have not experienced it, trust me it will be major drawback in your lifetime. If you have any bad memories, the magical hills will take it away from you , you will be weightless all your ego, sorrow and all bad vibes will be worthless and you will be free. Literally if you understand these there is nothing more worthier than this in the whole world. After you hike and reach the top the view form above will absolutely mesmerize you. The wind which blows through the sweat you have shed while hiking will make you more cooler than the temperature at the top. You can spend a lifetime at the top watching the sun melting in the fog , the rays of the sun is giving multi colours to the fog and the sky which makes it a must one time watch event in every persons life. Until that moment it was all a dream for me but after I saw that it became or created a special place in my life which will be irreversible. The saddest part for me was leaving the magical hill which give me a something which nothing else in the world can replace it that too in just a few seconds or few minutes. There will be many places like this but the only thing that can change is the way you see it to be. If you love it with all your heart and you go somewere, after all its only you who is experiencing the moment no one else will do it for you. So more important is not the destination which you go but which person you become while going. What you have seen is beautiful, but what's more beautiful is what you have not seen. Keep traveling make more memories than money live the life to its full potential. Traveling may be a hobby for many but for some it will be there life, they create or give new meaning for that word.
