Friends,
I have never written a travel experience before though traveled many times to many parts of India. Before initiating my experience here, let me tell you all, my intent of writing this travel log is, just to bring forth the beauty of places which have more to them than just roads and unruly traffic. It is the life’s pace that is worth noticing and the natural beauty that catches your eyes when you travel to places which are probably not as modern like Bombay, Delhi, Noida, Gurgaon and many more. I just out of the blue planned a one day trip to Bareilly i.e the city in U.P where my relatives stay. Idea was to unwind from the regular life of metro and be calm and in touch with the relaxed life style of this city. People over here in the city enjoy each moment of their lives and not like us metro guys, who sadly are often occupied by appraisals, meeting and presentations. Bareilly is not really expensive in terms of stay and food and one can have a good meal for as low as Rs. 150/-. There are many food outlets located near the railway station and out of all the hotels existing in Bareilly, my patronized one is Swarn Towers. Best part is that next to my hotel was a MSIL stockyard. The first thing I saw after removing the window curtain of the room was that only. Apart from that outside my hotel saw the Hybrid Ciaz in evening. Being a petrol head such sighting keeps one engaged to his hobby and passion while enjoying the ease of life there.
What I am going to share with you is a travelogue cum photologue of the same in a best possible narration which would include conversations with my nagging dad and always wanting to get me married mom. The route was NH-24 all the way. It took me 6 hours to reach my hotel. The road condition of the route is quite good for cruising at 80-90 km/h and toll tax paid for one side is 295/-. Moving ahead, I traveled alone and had my chauffeur for company. I was amazed to see the sights of lush green fields which earlier used to be either soaking in water or remained un-used. Yesterday, I saw this NH-24 not as a road filled with traffic and other imperfections, I tried to catch what lies between traffic and other imperfections on that route.
The story begins!!
I am sitting and watching the serial, Thapki Pyar ki. 7:15pm is the time. As soon as there was a break in the episode, I made a sulking face so that dad could take notice and ask me.
Paa: Kya hua? (What happened?)
Me: nothing just feeling bored. Bahar jaana chahta hu (I want to go some place out)
Paa: Open the main door and go out for a stroll
Me: I want to leave Delhi for a day or so, I am bored of same type of routine.
Paa: You want to spend time with yourself Right?
Me: Ya kind of!
Paa: Talk to Pallavi
Me: She is busy with her music sessions.
Paa: So where you plan to go?
Me: Bareilly or may be Jaipur!
Paa: Dekhlo!
Me: Ya! I am off to Bareilly tomorrow.
Paa: Inform Sheeshpal (My chauffeur)
Me: You do so!
To be continued!
