Origins

This blog is about togetherness,exploration, documentation, appreciation and savouring the small pleasures of life while visiting the remotest yet beautiful corners of Northeast of India. It will include the beautiful scenic places that we have explored, exploring or will explore gradually.

Traveling gives us a perspective to feed our intellect to the extent that we barely try. It is with this intellect and a sense of responsibility towards the tourism potential of Northeast of India which eventually led to the creation of this blog documenting every planned and unplanned journeys we undertook.

What we did






Brahmaputra again but in Guwahati with Zakir


It was a just another usual Sunday morning when my phone rang and the words i heard after that assured that I can still transform the normal day into a day full of adventure and fun. On the other side of the phone was my friend Zakir who wanted me to accompany him to a Ferry boat where we get to sail on the Brahmaputra and savor the fun and frolic involved with it. I could not resist the offer and jumped into it. What happened after that is better described through the pictures in my next upcoming posts.



 





Before we called it a day


Just some random Pics

The river has always been an integral part of the Assamese and Brahmaputra is just an extension to the Assamese culture and history. The Gamosa tied on the boat is just an indication that the boat belongs to an Assamese son of the soil.





The sky changed colors throughout the day and played all the tricks to make the day an event not just a journey.





Just a piece of wood or something else...





Feeding the snake is not fun....




The dusk, ferry and the Brahmaputra cast a spell on us. It made us fall in love with the place all over again and again.




Traces of anonymous things on the sand




                          Cigarette ..

On a rampage friends

 We were taken aback by the nature around us and just posed
 And it was time to celebrate the moment with a couple of pegs
GULP.....
 Tired of roaming but not posing
 Then we sat and spoke to each other
And then  we drank again

Something we did as Bachelors

 On the banks of Brahmaputra about 25km from Doomdooma we rode on our motorcycles towards Dhola Ghat or the river banks of Brahmaputra.

In Myanmar

After a journey of 7 hours we finally reach our final destination MYANMAR

 We posed...

 We ate, dank, discussed, shopped and admired
 The clouds and the Lake of no return in Myanmar took our breath away...
 At 3727 feet and still climbing further
The cigar
