Around the World-Truevelife: Sangla Valley: Part 1 (The Beginning..)

http://truevelife.blogspot.com/2012/07/sangla.html

Sunday, July 1, 2012. Sangla Valley: Part 1 (The Beginning.). Himachal Pradesh (HP) is one of the states in India which is always bustling with flocks of tourists and travelers round the year.And why not? I love to go to the places which are relatively less known. After reaching there, I felt that many of the people visiting HP were also not aware of Sangla valley, looking at the number of tourists at Sangla and comparing it to the number of tourists visiting rest of HP. A church at the ridge in Shimla :).

Monday, May 2, 2011. Ladakh : Part 2 (Kanpur-Srinagar). If I had eight hours to chop down a tree, I'd spend six sharpening my axe.". A very well said quote in fact! I experienced it.To plan a trip of 15 days, it took 2 months. Preparation details. Boarding on Duronto.Fun forever :). And the best part of the whole event was the road trip than sightseeing! Yeah, it was the crux of this odyssey :) Whenever we six guys discuss this trip, the most fun appears at the transition part from one place to other.
