Be careful what you wish for, they say. We all wished to work from the comfort of our homes, but we forgot to ask that it should also be easy and without the danger of a pandemic hovering above our heads. So then wishes should always come with a disclaimer like the ones after mutual-fund advertisements.
Why are we talking about this randomly, you ask? Well, as we write this, we are sitting in the middle of what is a limitless expanse of white salt flats under an infinite sky. To not wax philosophical is a waste of this glorious moment. At this point, we are at peace, as well. It is a happy, satisfactory feeling. All of this was possible thanks to the Hyundai Venue parked just a few metres away from us. Without it, this unforgettable experience would not have happened at all.
With empty roads beckoning us, it was high time we reconnected with ourselves and the world around us. And what better place to do that than at Sambhar Lake? This time, it wasn’t just about the highspeed runs on the glorious salt flat, it was about something far more serene. We took our trusty Hyundai Venue in search of pink salt and flamingoes.
