Vietnam wasn’t even on my list. Booking was an accident really. Saw cheap flights, figured why not. Sometimes those random decisions hit different. Hanoi traffic is something else. Motorbikes come from everywhere. To cross the street, you just start walking. Slow, steady. They flow around you. I stood there for like 10 minutes the first…
so georgia. where do i even fucking start man. ok so i landed in tbilisi and honestly? i was not ready. the airport is tiny af like its a bus station with a runway. i walked out and this old dude just comes up and goes “where u from? welcome!” and gives me a glass…

Okay so. Rishikesh. Honestly? I went there expecting just another tourist town. Maybe some cool river views. Maybe a few temples. The kind of place people put on their bucket list and then move on from. I was SO wrong. And I’m not saying this in that Instagram captions way. I mean it genuinely. Rishikesh…
Look. Bangkok airport arrivals. 2AM. My brain’s fried from the flight and I’m staring at this taxi queue that goes on forever. Some guy in a uniform asks where I’m going. I show him my phone with an address. He laughs. Then he points. There’s a meter taxi right there that I completely missed. That’s…
Okay so Amarnath is wild. You climb to like 13,000ft to see this ice lingam. Not made by humans. Nature made it. And it grows and shrinks with the moon. How? Nobody really knows. Hindus say its Shiva. Science says something about water freezing at that altitude with specific conditions. Either way, standing there in…
ok so slovenia wasnt even on my list. honestly id barely heard of it. saw some random photo of lake bled on instagram and was like where even IS that. turns out its this tiny country wedged between italy and austria. and omg im so glad i went bc it completely surprised me. landed in…

Dude. Kedarnath is something else entirely. Not gonna lie, I thought it was just another temple. But standing there at nearly 12,000 feet, looking up at those snow peaks, something shifts in your head. The 16km trek from Gaurikund? Brutal. No sugarcoating it. But also? Worth every step. You see pilgrims in their 60s and…
slovenia travel: wtf just happened …and then i was like WAIT is that a REAL CASTLE on an island in a lake?? like i wasnt even drunk yet (ok maybe a little hungover from the night before) and i just stared at lake bled for like 10 min straight with my mouth open like a…
