Explore Santosh Gauriar’s India journey in his debut travel book, blending real experiences, nature, culture, and personal stories from across the country.

This blog is an invitation to explore Santosh Gauriar’s India journey—a journey that unfolds not just across landscapes, but through stories, people, moments, and quiet reflections found along the road. Rooted in real experiences from his debut travel book, these writings go beyond destinations to capture the essence of travel as a deeply personal and transformative act.

India is vast, layered, and endlessly surprising. From bustling cities to remote villages, from mountain roads to coastal paths, every mile traveled brings a new story. In this blog, Santosh shares those stories as they were lived—unfiltered, honest, and grounded in observation. Each post reflects encounters with nature, culture, and everyday life, offering readers a window into India seen through the eyes of an explorer rather than a tourist.

The India journey documented here is not about ticking places off a list. It is about slowing down, listening, and allowing the road to shape perspective. Sometimes the journey reveals itself through a conversation with a stranger, sometimes through silence in the wilderness, and sometimes through unexpected detours that lead to the most memorable experiences. These blogs embrace that unpredictability, celebrating both the planned routes and the accidental discoveries.
