MY RED LETTER SOLO TRIP
Storizen|July 2023
Who does not like to travel? We all have wanderlust in us. When you get time, we look forward to traveling to a beautiful place. In this hectic schedule, it has become extremely essential to fly our minds to a place where we can rest our minds and body.

MY RED LETTER SOLO TRIP

We get so occupied in our daily activities that we forget that our mind need rest. To unwind, you block a date in the calendar and travel to an enchanting place.

It goes without saying that travelling instills a new wave of energy in us. Whether you spend your holiday on a beach or on a hilly region, we all feel relaxed in the lap of nature. When you travel to a new place where you have never been before, you learn many things about the place. At times, life gives you a chance to learn lessons while you are travelling to a place.

It was the month of August when I was traveling to Ratnagiri by train. Ratnagiri is one of the most bewitching states of Maharashtra. In the summer season, you will find mango plantations in many places in Ratnagiri. During the monsoon, the same city turns out to be most beautiful and refreshing. Plants, flowers, fruits, and veggies all seem to be so fresh.

When I go on a holiday, I usually go with friends or with my parents. This time I decided to go on a solo trip. I booked a seat in Ratnagiri Express for myself. Although people prefer flights these days to travel to their destinations. Traveling by train has a different charm. As I stay in Mumbai, I prefer traveling to the nearest places by train. I love enjoying the journey on the train where I can sit near the window and watch the pleasant views outside the window.

As I was enjoying the views, an eighty-year-old girl and a 10-year-old boy sat opposite to my seat. They were siblings who work as child labor in Andheri. The hometown of two little kids is in Ratnagiri. They used to stay with their parents in the small village of Ratnagiri. For the last year, the kids have been working on a construction site with their neighborhood uncle. After many months, the kids were returning to their hometown to meet their parents and relatives.
