Another trip

As promised i am back here after my next trip to a small place called Jibhi in Himachal. Though the journey by road that is 11+ hours (please remember the kind of roads we have here) proved to be really tiring but our state changed as soon as we touched our place. Its a very small place mainly visited by foreigners in search for peace and thats the thing one can get there. It was an amazing combination of wild forests, huge mountains, fresh air, river minus the city chaos or for that matter any hill station. There is a huge difference in hill stations like Simla, Nainital and a small village like Jibhi n hills. One needs to visit to appreciate the place. There was nothing called market, just small shops for basic things. We stayed there in the lap of nature for almost 3 days with none of the things available that we claim we cant live without. We also covered a mountain trek which led to a small lake, of almost 10 kms and to my own surprise it was fun though we were dead tired by the end of it as we are not used to such long walks on even plains. Apart from untouched beauty of the place, the other thing worth admiration was the warmth that natives come across. 3 days was too short of a trip to visit such a place. Though while coming back we did plan for our next trip, but i cant wait.

Bye for now.
