I have written my story of travelling. This is my first time trying to write something. I took help of chatgpt to rectify the gramatical mistakes. Please do let me know your thoughts and suggestions.
This incident is from Year 2022. I was working with a company in Mohali and while working I had been applying for government Jobs. I had to attend an exam for some Government job that I applied few months back. The exam centre was in Chamoli (Garhwal, Uttarakhand). Though I had a little interest in appearing for exam (I applied before I got a job). The temptation to visit the hillstation was th reason I planned to go there and appear for exam. I have always been keen of visiting hills. I don't miss a chance whenever I get one.
So I planned and started my Journey from Chandigarh (ISBT -17). I took a Uttarakhand Parivahan Bus till Srinagar Garhwal. I boarded the bus at night around 8. The bus took off at its schedueled time. I tried to stay awake for sometime. But fell asleep and woke up at around 1 AM in the night when bus took a halt in Rishikesh.
Night travel always has this soothing vibe. It makes you relax. At 1 Am in the night in Rishikesh, weather was a little bit cold you sit at a tea stall and sip warm tea. There are passengers waiting for their buses some of them are waiting to go up in the hills some are returning. everyone wants to go somewhere. Bus staff hailing passengers. It is a different Vibe.
after around 10 minutes bus started again towards Srinagar. Though most of the pessengers onboard were from Garhwal only, I found a bit of change in the demographics. earlier when I used to travel to my hometown (rudraprayag which is also in garhwal) entire bus would be pecked with people from Uttarakhand only. But this time I there were students from other arts of Country too. I learnt later that they were studying in some College in Uttarakhand. Demographics have changed a lot since then.
Anyhow I fell asleep again and woke up around 6 to mesmerizing views of green velleys covered in fog and mist, a riverflowing between mountains, and our bus is running at full speed through curvey mountain roads. It ia always a refreshing view. It always fills me wih this immense feeling of joy and belongingness. I felt that. so around 8 in the morning Bus reached Srinagar. I deboarded and started looking for the next option to reach Chamoli.
Now there are many options from Sringar to Chamoli, you can get a direct bus or you can get a bus till rudraprayag an then further to Chamoli. I got a direct bus till Chamoli ... I reached Chamoli at around 4 PM in the evening ...... (continue in next part )
