  • Just when I thought I was done with trying out any new kinda adventure, I went and did this!! . . Small confession though, I am petrified of heights! 😬 So much that going on escalators or even glass elevators gets me a bit anxious. So trying out paragliding really was a huge deal for me and I am happy to report that I did it WITHOUT PEEING IN MY PANTS or crying out loud (like that guy in the paragliding video that recently went viral 😁😁). . . Plus it is Pokhara! No one can say no to paragliding in this beautiful Himalayan town. It is no doubt one of the best places in the world to try paragliding. Imagine gliding over the gorgeous Phewa lake and the green lush valley tucked in the lap of snow peaked mountains. This place really is pure ❤️ . . . . . . . . . . . . . #paragliding #adventure #nepal #himalayas #phewalake #himalayangirls #himalayangeographic #outdoorgirl #neverstopexploring #womenwhoexplore #himalayas #sheisnotlost #sheroamssolo #nerdyadventuress #travelstoke #travelstories #thevisualyatra #hippieinhills #tripotocommunity #mountainlove #mypixeldiaries #travelgram #igersofindia #lifeofadventure #indiatravelgram #nepaldiaries🇳🇵
  • Can't believe that it was just five years back when I was here, shivering at minus ten degrees, at 5000m asl, middle of the night, staring straight at the North Face of Mount Everest! . . This was probably the most epic road trip I have ever had and it is times like this that fills me with gratitude. Always thankful for whatever I have been given, what ever I have worked for and what ever I could do. Life is hard for everyone and I'm thankful to be here, to be able to choose my own direction, to breathe, to laugh, to travel, to love and be loved! . . Lately, I have been rather asocial, sorry about that but I am back and can't wait to share all that I have been upto in the last few months! 😁 . . #GratitudePost . . . . . . . . . #MountEverestBaseCamp #NorthFace #Rongbuk #Tibet #himalayas #yourshotphotographer #mypixeldiaries #travelgram #womenwhoexplore #passionpassport #MountainLove #himalayangeographic #hippieinthehills #tripotocommunity #globewanderer #nationalgeographic #lonelyplanetindia #travelstoke #insta_himalayas #bbctravel #nerdyadventuress #roadtrip #natgeoyourshot
  • ~ Monday Morning Rush ~ . . 😑 . . . . The Changpa herdsman told me there were about 200 Yaks, sheep and Changthani pashmina goats (this is where authentic cashmere wool comes from btw). The Changpas are a nomadic tribe who live in the unforgiving high altitude terrain between 12,000 to 16,000 feet, and it is amazing how they do not fear the extreme cold and icy wind and live in harmony with the unpredictable nature of this place moving from one pasture to another, everyday, year on year. . . . And here we are, cribbing about going to work on a Monday! 🙄 *Sigh* . . . . . . . #mountainlife #changpatribe #changthang #tibetiannomads #ladakh #himalayas #lifeinthehimalayas #himalayangeographic #lonelyplanetindia #lpin #natgeotravellerindia #natgeoyourshot #yourshotphotographer #mypixeldiaries #_woi #tripotocommunity #hippieinhills #thevisualyatra #storiesofindia #igersofindia #indiatravelgram #travelstories #incredibleindia #womenwhoexplore #pashminagoats #tsokar

  • The last time I was at this remote Himalayan village was in the first week of January last year. Yup. The peak of winter in Ladakh where the temperature drops down to MINUS 25 to 30!! 😬 I thought I would die of the extreme cold but surprisingly I managed to get out and promised myself that one day I would come back here again..when it is warmer! 😔 . . What I didn't know was it was going to be this soon! . . Last time around Hanle was brown and white but this time this beautiful village was full of colours and blooming! Most tourist don't bother coming here and those who do only come because Hanle has one among the World's Highest Astronomical Observatory at 14,800 feet. . . But I come here because I love this village. I love the road that leads to this village, the beautiful people here, the wildlife in this region and the dramatic landscape around it! I come here and do absolutely nothing and for some weird reason, it makes me very happy! . Do you see my happy village just beyond this colourful bridge?! 😊 . . . #Hanle #motorcyclediaries #bikergirl #himalayas #himalayangirls #himalayangeographic #royalenfieldhimalayan #puremotorcycling #ridepure #royalenfield #womenwhoride #outdoorgirl #womenwhoexplore #sheisnotlost #tripotocommunity #natgeotravellerindia #lonelyplanetindia #travelstories #travelgram #indiatravelgram #indiapictures #_woi #mountainlife #travelstoke #glt #bikerni #neverstopexploring #nerdyadventuress
  • When I told my friends I want to ride down to Tso Kar, almost everyone told me, "It isn't really worth it!", "There is nothing there" or "It is a dead lake, hardly any water also". Etc. Etc. 😔 . . But I had never been to Tso Kar despite coming to Ladakh region multiple times, so I decided to make this my first stop from Leh, after crossing Tanglang La. And I don't know about you but I thought the landscape here was MAGICAL! ❤️ . . At 14,860 ft asl, it is a lake with hardly any water but it was far from being dead. The marshland of a lake had so much life going on if you really look. The Changpa herdsman with his 200 odd sheep, goats and yaks, rare birds like the black neck crane and brown headed gulls, the Kiangs roaming about and much more. I loved the serenity of this place! 😍 . . So really, what might not be beautiful for someone might be beautiful to you. Best is to see it, to believe it! 🤙🏼 . . . . #tsokar #changpa #ladakh #marshland #highaltitudelake #himalayangirls #outdoorgirl #sheisnotlost #travelstories #travelstoke #nerdyadventuress #natgeotravellerindia #natgeoyourshot #lonelyplanetindia #tripotocommunity #hippieinhills #himalayangeographic #himalayas #mountainlife #incredibleindia #igersofindia #indiapictures #passionpassport #indiatravelgram #_woi #neverstopexploring
  • Just three friends trying to get a quiet drink at Cafe Himalayas before Monday hits us all! 😬😔 . . Btw, those are Kiangs or the Tibetian Wild Asses. They are kinda cute but from what I heard, quite useless too because they cannot be domesticated and are found in abundance in the Chumathang area of Ladhak. . . While riding to Hanle, there was a moment when a bunch of them were galloping next to the road and then crossed right in front of me! It was like a scene out of a Hollywood movie, you know where a bunch of gorgeous horses gallop alongside the road, everything in Slow-Mo and some sweet music in the background! Just that these were a bunch of asses and not horses but it was a nice moment nonetheless! 😁😁 . . . #roadtrip #bikeride #hanle #kiang #tibetianass #chumathang #ladhak #himalayas #himalayangeographic #womenwhoexplore #indiatravelgram #incredibleindia #natgeoyourshot #natgeotravellerindia #lonelyplanetindia #indiapictures #igersofindia #hippieinhills #bbctravel #travelstories #travelblogger #travelstoke #himalayanlover #outdoorgirl #neverstopexploring #tripotocommunity #nerdyadventuress
