Harihara Mahadevan M
Tutor In The Tour

We were all enjoying the conducted tour to a summer resort organised for our friends' circle by our Achu mama; that is how we all call him affectionately. A towering personality, who is jack of all trades and master of all too! You name a topic and he will talk for hours, that too with amusing anecdotes. If there is a problem in our laptop he will be the first to volunteer and make it alright within a very short span of time. A retired English professor with a hale and healthy body, even in his early eighties. A highly disciplined man with healthy food habits and regular yoga exercises, it is no wonder that he can be free from all diseases. When we were hesitating to go for trekking in that resort, he inspired and led us with contagious enthusiasm. He used to organise each tour, employing meticulous planning with minutest details.

For the present tour, he took along the owner of a small restaurant, started very recently in our area along with their cook and an assistant, for preparing the food of our taste. “We should not go to any hotel there. It would be very costly. Why should we waste our hard-earned money and get into health issues? We can have our own menu and eat fresh hot food” he said. But the resort management did not allow us to cook or serve the outside food at their premises. So, he fixed a place in a nearby mutt for preparing the food and planned to serve food there itself.
