I wonder how many times I have spoken, planned for randomly heading off to some place, soak in the beauty around me, ,roam around or just be a spectator to some unknown way of life in some land somewhere. No fixed plans,just do what you feel like .

But this time I was just gonna act upon it..I was set for complete madness...Yuhuuu!!

Armed with just a backpack full of bare essentials and a tourist's roadmap the random journey started.The destination(s) was unknown;so when it came to looping in all our friends,(no guesses required, is'nt it?)just about everyone refused. So it was just two of us, me and Sam ,my partner in crime..and probably this added to the fun all the more :D

Our rules were very simple,
1. Budget travel..so we boarded only State Transport /Asiad buses buses ..and trust me we werent disappointed by this at all.. :)
2. Whichever bus picks us first ,we board it and hit that place!(...it really aint dat bad..at all..)

That was all we knew of what we were gonna be upto for those 3 days..!

The only moment when I probably wondered if we had got it all wrong was on Day 1of our journey @ 5:30 a.m. ..we had just landed in Devgad ,a small village in the coastal belt of Konkan.




It was pitch dark..the sun was yet to bbring in its shine and our company was some of the bus depot staff .I only manged to ask them was fr a restroom..(lolzz..just didnt knw wat to ask fr..).The empty Bus stand, Us ,and a couple of donkeys, wasnt it just perfect?? !
We stood there staring at the time table fr 5 mins..no words said..and suddenly we burst out laughing..We were alrite..All wud be well..:)

At the end of day 3 we had manged Mumbai-Pune-Devgad-Kunkeshwar-devgad-nandgaon-tivare-Kolhapur-Panhala-kohapur-Mumbai.......



Loved every bit of being a fOOtLoOse!!
Would recommend it to just about everyone, anyone.....Atleast once in a lifetime aisa karneko mangata !!!
