TRAVELING: AN ART OF EXPLORING SOMETHING NEW (Delhi trip)

A Journey that gives so many Unforgetable memories...  

Traveling...!Traveling is not just starting from one destination to another; for me it is a way of exploring new things that we have never experienced before, and it is also an opportunity to connect with ourselves and to become knowledgeable. what are your thoughts on this?

So why travel? There are so many people who like to travel, and they are all traveling for different reasons. Some travel to escape reality and relive their mindset; some travel to explore new cultures; and some travel to explore new adventures.

In the case of traveling, the best person that I took as inspiration is Santhosh George Kulangara;

He is the person that I started watching documentaries about. We can say that he is a real traveler or an excellent explorer; he documented the beautiful diversities and beauty of the Amazon Rain Forest through his lens, and he is also the founder of Safari TV and the author of the Sancharam series.

So are you guys ready to hear about an unplanned but memorable journey that I took in May 2023? 

So this is the time for all the exams and all the burdens of UG. It is totally cool to be home and be relieved, helping parents in their businesses, taking classes, and also traveling around to develop businesses, interact with people, and so on.

This trip was about going to Kerala and being part of an historic event that happened in the Delhi Thayagaraj Indore Stadium. The event was called the Next Generation Program, where all the second generation people in RCM business attended and showed us the big and bright future ahead of us.

This journey has head of on may 4th of 2023 with a bunch of people with different age group.

We started our journey to Delhi from the Thrissur railway station in Kerala district. We were totally 24 members total for this trip. I am still proud to say that I am also a part of this. The photo shown here shows us being ready in the railway station for this trip. all these people where from different parts of kerala

We started our journey at 6 p.m. from Kerala to New Delhi on the Kerala-Sampark train. Everybody had different coaches. I am with four other people who are the same age as me and also older than me. We haven't gotten any confirmed tickets for travel; we traveled in RAC tickets,

So the journey was quite difficult for me as well as for them too. Still, we managed to travel comfortably. and spent two days on the train. To be honest, the ongoing journey was not much entertainment because we are all likely total strangers, even though all four people who are traveling with me are my team mates, and two of them are first time travelers to such a long distance, and that uncomfortableness became a major barrier for us, but we still managed to become friends with them.

We reached the New Delhi Railway station at around 11 a.m. on May 6, 2023. Some of our team members got out of Agra railway station to visit Taj Mahal, and we booked rooms in New Delhi and got freshened up. We have some time left in our hands; we only have a program tomorrow morning ,so we decided to visit some places there.

we started our journey to visit red fort first because we only have a little amount of time to explore Delhi. we headed on two rickshaws which was kind of cheap and affordable for travelers. 

It was an awesome experience to visit such a place. From there, we went to visit India Gate, for which we took a package of 150 rupees for each member, which actually includes the whole trip to India Gate, Gurudwara, and which will guide us towards the place and also return us to our room that we had taken.

While going to India Gate, we saw the stadium, which was so crowded because of IPL 2023 on DC vs. RCB. After some time, we saw India Gate and Rastrabathi Bhavan, which was a beautiful view at night. After the delightful view, we went to Gurudwara, where our guide took us and gave us our dinner.

I couldn't take any pictures of the place because using a mobile phone is prohibited there, but it was a mind-filling moment. We got the opportunity to spend some quality time there and also good food, which was given there every day for around 8 p.m. We got out of there after some time and reached near our room and went shopping.

which was really a crowded place with so many street vendors and so many shops for tourist to purchase with a minimal budget.

 On the Next day we went to Thygraja Indore stadium where the main reason of this journey. the next Generation program hosted by UES  and all the leaders in RCM business for the purpose of reaching to the second generation.

There were around 6,000+ members who were attending the program, and I got the opportunity to be on stage and receive recognition in front of this many people.it is still a mesmerizing moment in my life so far 

This is the youth team from Kerala who attended the Next Generation program. We were looking forward to attending next year's youth empowerment program with twice this strength.

Overall, this journey has been one of the best and most memorable so far. and it will always be... I am waiting for the next journey.
