cultureLost in the Misty Valleys of Himachal

It was supposed to be just another weekend getaway — a quick escape from the chaos of the city. But somewhere between the winding mountain roads and the scent of pine in the air, Himachal whispered a story I’ll never forget.
The Journey Through the Clouds
The bus climbed endlessly, the valley below shrinking into a blur of green and gray. I sat by the window, watching clouds drift past like lazy spirits. When we finally reached the small village of Jibhi, the silence hit me — a kind of peace you can’t find in cities. Every breath felt like inhaling freedom itself.
A Night by the River
That night, I stayed in a wooden homestay by the river. The only sounds were the crackle of a bonfire and the murmur of flowing water. Locals shared stories — of love, loss, and mountains that had seen it all. Under a sky heavy with stars, I realized travel isn’t always about finding places. Sometimes, it’s about finding parts of yourself you didn’t know were missing.
