I m back home after completing the task of getting my brother settled in his new place of study. Dad gave me this responsibility and his theory was that he did these things for me and now i should do them for my bro. Moreover he also told me that this could me a vacation for me.
I stayed at 4 different hotels, traveled by 4 different trains, ate at the expensive and at not so expensive places, traveled by best and worst of the buses, visited 5 places... and did all this in 14 lazy and hectic days.
Although i love trekking but a perfect vacation for me would be when i have nothin to do but relax... so this trip which my dad called a vacation was far from it... i had to interact with so many people of all age group, although not necessary but i also had the responsibility of finding the best for my brother... i visited so many houses, looking for PG accommodation, ragged so many students (i would call it ragging as i used to hate it when guardians used to quiz me about places and subjects etc.), asked for directions to every 5th person (dont ask me why this was required), gave gyan to people double my age... but it was all fun.
The train journeys were eventful and would write another post on it... train journeys in my colorful country has its own charm, someone gives me choice between free flight ticket and a free train ticket... i would choose train.
