TRAVEL DIARIES — LADAKH | DAY 1

 🏔️ TRAVEL DIARIES — LADAKH | DAY 1 🚗


Delhi ➡️ Jalandhar


Maybe this is my 13th or 14th trip to Ladakh… honestly, I have lost count. 😄

But this one is special.

Because for the first time, my wife and my two daughters, Riya & Diya, are joining me.

A promise made to them long back… “One day, we’ll do Ladakh together.” ❤️


And as always, an adventure road trip doesn’t really start when you turn the car key. It starts weeks before that!

Long leave sanctioning, work adjustments, convincing parents 😄, arranging someone to look after them while we are away, planning safe stays, packing, repacking… and yes, somehow managing IMA Dwarka work in between all this! 😅


There were quite a few hiccups before the trip, but thankfully, one by one, everything fell into place.

And then finally… WE STARTED! ❤️


Travelling with the girl gang has its own challenges though.

The amount of luggage!! 😂

The car has already stopped looking like a car and started looking like a moving house… or maybe a dustbin! 🤣

“Ye bhi le chalo… kya pata zarurat pad jaaye.”

And of course, the final decision is always: “Sab kuch ghar se hi le jana hai!” 😄

But honestly, seeing the three of them excited and happy makes all the preparation worth it.


Today we reached Jalandhar and checked into the BSF Officers’ Mess — a beautiful and peaceful officers’ institute.

Day 1 was easy.

The real adventure begins from here. 🏔️❤️


Sharing a few pictures from the first day.

Stay tuned…

I’ll try to share our journey every day, network permitting! 📸🚙
