Hello Readers,
“Travelling - it leaves you speechless, then turns you a storyteller.” - This famous quote from the historic world traveler Ibn Battuta is very true, as I have experienced myself. I love to tell stories, especially when I am accompanied by my friends. One of my hobbies that I developed back in school Days and still love to continue is chatting and gossiping with my old school friends whenever I visit my hometown. We would meet and hang out every evening over a Tea stall where we would talk about random facts and news, share our personal experiences, or sometimes we would even start debating on something silly. But whenever the topic of gossip comes down to Travel, I get more interested in listening or sharing my own experiences, because I really get thrilled to visit new places and build unique and fresh memories, or even when hearing stories about it. Not only that, I also sometimes watch. Travel Vlog videos on YouTube to experience foreign countries, especially mountains and Beaches, as I love nature over city life.
After a long time since my last trip, I was fortunate enough to finally plan and go on a short trip again and just yesterday, I came back from that trip with lots of memorable, enriched and funny moments. This time, I went to a nearby Beach with my Wife and 2 other friends and their wives too and together, we spent an unforgettable time and enjoyed these 2 days enjoying the beach, trying out seafood and visiting side attractions for tourists. After my college days, I hadn't gone on any trips with friends and after so many years, we were finally fortunate to execute the trip, so all of us were really happy about it and though we went for only like 2 days, We pre-planned the whole trip and also booked our hotels and sorted some other things beforehand to make it sure that we enjoy this trip with a full blast.
The beach was a 5 hours bus journey from the city, so I started the journey with my wife and reached there at around 10 pm, where I met with my friends and their wives. We were 3 couples coming from different places and decided to meet at the hotel which we booked around 7 days before the journey. As we went during the weekend time which is obviously a peak time, The hotel rent was much higher than weekdays because of the insane traffic from local Tourists like Us. Gladly we booked our hotel before or we would not have even gotten one room on arrival, as all the rooms were booked. Anyway, after getting refreshed, we couldn't resist ourselves anymore and went out at night time to enjoy the night beach view. It was around 11.30 pm so the beach was almost crowd-less and I had never experienced the beach so empty before.
Anyway, after walking by the beach for some time and enjoying the cold breeze, we came back to our rooms and started our adventure the next morning. First, we enjoyed a nice time at the swimming pool and then went out to visit all the local beaches and tourist attractions. After enjoying the whole day exploring the beaches and getting super tanned, we returned to our rooms at night and ordered food from the hotel’s restaurant, as we were too tired to go outside again. The next day we again went out together and explored the apparel shops and gift item shops on the beach and took some mementos for ourselves and relatives. After having a good lunch, we finally packed our bags and left the place with a little bit of sadness in our hearts thinking if we had some time to enjoy the trip a little More. Now, I will start saving money again to prepare for my next trip, and let’s see when I can pack my bags again and go out!
