In country like like India... Where women are still not allowed to travel alone.... I fought for my journey to kashi ji Varanasi.... Shiv nagri.... Year 2017 ....nothing was planned.... It was just a stranger thought in my mind..... What I am doing.... Why I have to wait for someone to go with me... Why I need a company to go somewhere.... Why I have to consider others choices where we should go..... And I just booked my train tickets for a festival called Dev deepavali In the month of November celebrate in Varanasi.... And the day came when I have to leave for Varanasi... And the finally the time had came when I had to inform my family about my trip... And I told my mother that I am going Varanasi... and when she asked with whom... I said alone.... I said my tickets are booked and bags are packed.. I have to leave in the evening.... Every family member was shouting me...and I really don't know from where I find my courage... I said I have to go no matter what you say.... I am not asking I am informing you.... Ahhhh I still remember that scary silence. My train shiv ganga had to come around 6:55 in the evening... So I left around 5 pm on 1st Nov 2017 ..i said bye mom.. She didn't replied anything... Neither I waited for her answer... My eyes were full of tears that mix feeling of fear, excitement and sadness... Haha... I took auto for new Delhi railway station... I was somewhere around dhaulakuan and suddenly I started laughing.... That feeling of freedom that I think every Indian girl wants from their parents and relatives... I wiped out my tears and I was smiling continuously.... You did it you did it darling.... Next 5 days is all yours pretty... And Varanasi is not an ordinary place... I went there twice.. Met new people local people... Group of photographers that gathered there to capture that festival... Tired bhaang... Haha... Shopping.. Tried their local food... And best food joints... Bought banarsi saari... Boating... And I have attended that beautiful aarti at dashahmesh ghat... I was wearing lal sari with backless blouse... So eye catching I was.... Hahah I think people should travel more and stop wasting their money on unnecessary thinks. We should stop wasting our money on things that we buy only for show off and we actually don't require People should travel alone sometimes and by experience and I can tell you that it is way more interesting and adventurous... I love planning thinks and it really feels good when there is no one to influence you for trying something new...book your ticket and hotel pack your bags ...try something that you have never experienced before.... There is hell lot to say and express... But I am ending my speech here by say travel as more as you can... and you will experience that how beautiful life is... And trust me mother earth will leave you speechless.... Thanks Priyanka Bhardwaj
