Samruddhi Mahamarg road trip Featured · Travel

Five days, three states of mind: Mumbai to Ellora to Shirdi

The Samruddhi Mahamarg at cruising speed, rock-cut impossibility at Ellora, a dawn queue at Grishneshwar, VIP darshan logistics decoded — and every roadside thali we could justify stopping for.

Ujjain road trip Travel

Three states, one car, and the annual escape

The boot packed past all reason, three border crossings before the first proper chai, and Ujjain waiting at the far end of it.

Sandakphu trek Trek

Sleeping at 3,636 m on the Singalila ridge

The Human Migration — book cover
The book

The Human Migration

A disarmingly honest walk into the Garhwal Himalayas — cliff-edge Bolero rides, the thermodynamic betrayal of a sub-zero bucket bath, and the Swargarohini peaks over ancient Osla village.

You will feel like you are panting alongside Girish on the trail — and learn that the hardest paths end in places you cannot quite take with you, nor entirely leave behind.
