LIKE EVERY INDIVIDUAL IS UNIQUE, EVERY EXPERIENCE OF HIMALAYAS TOO IS UNIQUE. YOU'LL FIND SCORES OF VIDEO STORIES OF HIMALAYAN TREKS, NIGHTCAMPS, ROAD TRIPS ON YOUTUBE BUT WHAT YOU WILL NEVER FIND IS THE EXPERIENCE, FOR IMAGINATION AND STORIES ARE CIRCULAR, THEY NEVER LEAD YOU TO THE POINT OF EXPERIENCE.
Himalayas are known world over for their ethereal embrace, that gleans and evokes emotions from deep within. It gives the seeker what they want from it, some go for the sight seeing and the sights are all there to see, some are lovers and seek love in its lap, some are in search of motivation and you'll see them lost looking through the verges and creeks of mighty mountains as if searching for something, some are friends to the mountains who throng the himalayas on wheels with happy adrenaline filled faces, some are seekers of truth who worship the himalayas for it is the repository of enlightenment, but then there are some like me who wants a taste of everything, leaving nothing for tomorrow, a mix of all, just the way himalayas are, a mix of beauty and beast, a sight so lovely yet fearful at times, as if it wants to shake all that you hold within , to show you how big you can be yet how small you are, a place of lovers and yogis, everyone fulfilling their thirst from the sap of himalayas.
These are stories from past but what is happening in himalayas these days might just change the perception all together.!
What has changed ?

As every facet of the world and human involvement has transpired into something new altogether with the advent of new generations and technology shaping the way how we connect with reality, spirituality, reason, world and its culture, we are witnessing a new class of generation never to be found before in himalayas which was although present before but scattered, has managed to carve out a niche of its own, an ecosystem of seekers who wants to taste the all....just like me.

Just imagine a "Tomorrowland" concept in the real deep lush green landscape beside a roaring gushing mountain river, and people from all walks of life , from monks to fashion designers and DJs , of every possible color and creed, trespassing classes and nationality, there are these young folks who don't believe in boundaries and are here to share all that they can being a nice human being.
These people do not carry the baggage of past and borders, rather they are united by goal, a simple and palin goal, a goal of love. Love that we have talked about but never could manage to feel. you'll see in this corner of himalayas the "rainbow of highs" , people tripping and sharing in happiness , psychedelic happiness, sober happiness, musical happiness, sexual and spiritual happiness, happiness of food and nature, you name it and these valiant marchers filled with their youthness wants to taste them all, no one judging anybody as preached by baba BOB MARLEY and yogis alike, SHIVA the ultimate lord here, and love is the only prerequisite.

How it is different? The answer to this is one and only HIMALAYAS. Pay a visit because all from Mark Zuckerberg , Steve Jobs, The Beatles, and many more, but they all left. What matters today is who stays. Who stays to work out the change that this generation believes in , and for once the aim of love could be brought to reality. THE HIMALAYAS IS ALL HIGHS, in literal and metaphorical sense, whatever suits you , you'll get what you'll ask for.
