Hello friends,
My name is Sonali, by profession I am banker. Since childhood I have been good in creative writting and anything which requires creativity. In school days I used to write poems in Marathi as I have studied in Marathi medium. Then I tried to write in Hindi and then also in English.
I got a stable job in very early age that was my necessity also. As I was self dependent from the age of 21, I could able to bear my expenditures. For the first time I went out of the state for the sake of my orientation training programme held at Goa. For the first time I was without my parents. For the first time I was out of my comfort zone. I enjoyed a week.
After that, I got so many friends in my institution with whom I went on weekend to explore getaways near Mumbai like Lonavla, Mahabaleshwar, Matheran, Alibag and so on. With time it became an addiction.
After three years in my organisation, I got promoted as an Officer and was sent to Amaravati near Nagpur for rural assignment for around 6 months. For the first time I lived far from my parents for so long. But I learnt a lot in that phase. I made local friends with whom I explored Chikhldara, Gajanan Maharaj Sansthan in Shegao and other places.
During same time I got short duration institutional classroom trainings at different places like Gurgaon, Hyderabad and Indore. In this time I made friends from every nook and corner of the country. I came back to Mumbai and after some two years I got posting in Goa.
I spent Five years in Goa. Many times my friends came at my place with whom I had many unique experiences, some times I just went solo. I used to search places on Google and used to head towards it on my TVS Wego which has witnessed all my adventures.
It was the time when me and my friends decided to do something big and consequently made DIY plans for Rajasthan, Kerala and then Ladakh and successfully executed it. It boosted our confidence.
Meantime I got married and luckily my husband supported my wanderlust . I told my husband about my desire to explore the world and he stood strong behind me. With my husband I explored many places in Goa when he used to come to visit me on weekends. We also did Hampi, Pondicherry, Gokarna, Murudeshwar and so on
I even went with my friends to Himachal Pradesh after my marriage, all thanks to my Husband. Me and my husband went to Sikkim and darjiling for Honeymoon. On our first anniversary we made a trip of three South east Asian countries - Singapore, Malaysia and Thiland.
We keep exploring world together. Now I have come back to mumbai. From last year there is little break as we are blessed with new baby explorer. Can't wait more to have our first trip after her birth.....
