Solo traveller Yati Gaur is travelling on foot across the country
The Hindu
Travelling slow is as much about experiencing the destination as it is about savouring the journey, he says
Yati Gaur likes to walk. So much, that last September, he walked over 40 days and 520-odd kilometres from Rishikesh to Badrinath, via Kedarnath, Tungnath and other spots. In January this year, he walked around 800 kilometres in Rajasthan — starting from Jaipur and covering places such as Ajmer, Pushkar, Mount Abu, Jaisalmer, Barmer and Bhilwara. Right now he is walking through Himachal Pradesh. “I am not a tourist. I want to know the people in my country,” the 23-year old explains over phone about what drives him. Meeting people, making friends, sharing stories and experiences are part of the pay-off for him.
