The best part of the life is when your friends become your colleagues then become the best buddies for life.

After we three moved out to different companies, we could not meet. it's been more than 2 years we have not met. This time we decided to meet before this year-end. But want to make it special, We got an idea to go on a trip and create some memories.

Instantly we three mutually agreed for this trip. As one of my friend wants to see snow and I am very fond of North Eastern part of India, So we decided to land in Sikkim for our meet-up[3rd North-East has Done].

The best learning from this trip was, to understand your buddies better, you should travel once with them. Moreover, this trip turned out be an awesome one for all of us.

The best part of this trip was the craziness for playing in snow, the lost feeling and scared face when one of our friend could not find us for few minutes. He thought we left from the place, and he lost, were parted away from his friends. When he finally found us, he was shivering and had tears in his eyes. He never felt such lost feeling until that moment. Moreover, we both were not able to control our laugh on his condition. Watching soldiers for the first time in life from that close was unbelievable.

The second best part of this trip was strangers turned out be an awesome friends and joined with us for rest of the trip.

View about Sikkim State:

This tinny Himalayan state offers marvelous landscapes, beautiful views, different shades of sunset views, magnificent lakes and mountain views. More than that Local people, they are very kind and beautiful people.

Being an Asthma patient, I was at altitude of 17800ft (5,425 m) high from sea level, was not less than an achievement for me. The Gurudongmar lake was beautiful and scenery. The view of Gurudongmar Lake made our journey more beautiful and adventurous. It was one of my dream to be there and watch this beautiful lake and it was a cherry on cake when my besties were with me when I was living my dream.

And before visiting Nathula pass, the word solider was a normal word. But, after this trip my level of respect towards them cannot measure. At Nathula pass we had tea, which was prepared by our solider which was indeed special to us [In Military canteen].

The Indo- China boarder, it was an inch away from where we were standing! Watching Chinese soldiers was an excitement for us.

Still I can recollect the powerful words encrypted on the War memorial stone, “When you go Home tell them about us, and say for your tomorrow, we gave our today” which was disturbed for us for few days.
