Travelogue by Rishi Biswas I will script on those hanging clouds Tales of the rolling meadows, Of skies bluer than my cityscape, Of the hills and their mystic chants... It's more than a piece of reality Maybe an infinite loop of dream Pushing for an ageless escape, Hallowed by nature's trance… Endless miles, cobalt-blue lakes, azure skies and meadows rolling at my feet. I found myself leading a wallpaper lifestyle like a nomad amidst flocks of sheep and hordes of horses. Wearing the utter nonchalance on my soul, I realized that it has been one month since I returned from the Paradise on Earth ..read more

Preparation of Trekking: It all began on the evening of Jan 11, 2022. After a good walk with my cousin’s wife Veena, she asked me if I would be interested in a trek. It was exciting to hear that word and watch people do it, but I was not confident that I could even attempt it. A month passed by. During another evening’s visit to her house, she shared with me the trek leader’s number. On my return back home, I was mulling over things I have heard about trek from many others but still messaged the trek leader with many questions and also spoke to him that night of February 16, 2022. All my ques ..read more

MulKarkha Lake Trek Since childhood, the stories of Himalayas ran through my mind as my mother was a trekker and she used to tell me stories of her treks. So it was always a dream for me to go on a trek once in a lifetime. And it happened when I got in touch with some like minded people, who turned friends and now a family. A summer trek was organized by an organization (consisting of 20 members including 5 veteran mountaineers) and I was selected to be the part of it. And was highly excited about the trek. Day 1:(NJP - Rhenock by bus-Trek to Lingzey)(4km trek): It was around 9:00 AM when we ..read more

পাহাড় বলুন কিংবা পর্বত দুটোই অনেকটা নারীর মতো। কখন যে মুড swing হবে আপনি ধরতে পারবেন না। প্রেমে পড়লে তো আরও মুশকিল। কারণ বুঝতে হবে আপনাকেই। ওই একটা গান আছে- "এই ভালো, এই খারাপ/ প্রেম মানে মিষ্টি পাপ।" কিন্তু পাহাড়ের প্রেম মানে বৃষ্টিপাত, তুষারপাত, এপাস ওপাস আর ধপাস। কিন্তু প্রেম তখনও থেকে যাবে। Full Team ( From Left:- Krishanu Biswas, Priyanka Chatterjee, Sourav Shankar Basu, Pritam Sarkar, Souriddha Sanyal, Puloma Mukherjee, Arup Samanta, Ayanangshu Maity, Gautam Bhattacharya, Shubhojit Adhikari, Samir Banerjee) (Seating:- From Left, Dhrubojyoti Chatterjee, Ashim Kumar Biswas ..read more

Kuari Pass Pangarchulla Trek "The Mountains are calling and I must go" After the Phokteydara trek, as I pledged to return to the grand Himalayas, I planned to join the upcoming Kuari Pass-Pangarchulla trek on March 2023. We met our trek leader (TL), Dr. Sourav Ray, in Haridwar, who led us to Tugasi village, en route Devprayag, Rudraprayag, Karnprayag & Nandaprayag along with pristine scenic beauty which was enough to get rid of travel fatigue. Devprayag, the sacred place of merging of two visible heavenly rivers, Alaknanda and Bhagirathi, to form the holy Ganges. From Tugasi we were abou ..read more

Standing Infront of Sleeping Buddha from Aahl আমরা বাঙালীরা কমবেশি সকলেই ল্যাদখোর। একটু ঠান্ডা পড়লো, কী পড়লো না ওমনি মন বলে কম্বলের তলায় ঢুকে একটু ল্যাদ খাই। গরমে বাইরে যখন সূর্যদেব তার রুদ্র মূর্তি ধারন করেন তখন ঘরে AC চালিয়ে মনে হয় একটু ল্যাদ খাই। আবার বর্ষার দিনে যখন মেঘের মধ্যে ছিদ্র হয়ে যাওয়ার কারণে চারদিক বৃষ্টিস্নাত হয়ে থাকে তখন মন বলে গরম গরম খিচুড়ি আর সাথে বেগুনী, ইলিশ মাছ ভাজা সহযোগে মধ্যাহ্ন ভোজন সেরে একটু ল্যাদ খাই। মানে season টা যাই হোক না কেন ল্যাদ খাওয়া টা mandatory. কিন্তু অদ্ভুত ভাবেই এই বাঙালীরাই হচ্ছে সব থেকে বেশি ভ্রমণ পিপাসু মানুষ। Adventure ..read more

Entire Team on the Summit of Kedarkantha প্রতিটি মানুষের জীবনে একটা ইচ্ছা থাকে, একটা স্বপ্ন থাকে যা সে পূরণ করতে চায়। সবাই তাদের সেই ইচ্ছা বা স্বপ্নকে পূরণ করতে প্রতি দিন প্রতি মুহূর্ত সংগ্রাম করে চলেছে। তারপরও কারোর স্বপ্ন পূর্ণতা পায় তো কারোর মাঝ পথেই তা ভেঙে যায়। তেমনি আমার জীবনেও একটি স্বপ্ন ছিল থুড়ি এখনও আছে, পাহাড় দেখার। সেই স্বপ্নকে অনেক সময় ভাঙতে দেখেছি কিন্তু কখনো হাল ছাড়ি নি। মনে বিশ্বাস ছিল নিজের স্বপ্ন টা একদিন পূরণ করবই। আমি কখনই শান্তশিষ্ট ঘরোয়া জীবন ঠিক চাই নি। সব সময় একটা adventurous life ..read more
