Cultural Journey Gone Wrong - A Comedy of Errors - India Travel

From the sacred Shiva's Ghats of Kashi to the Buddha's Peace of Sarnath - during my India travel I set out on a spiritual + culinary adventure — but instead of enlightenment, I got… a gola gone wrong! 😅 “Buddha found peace in Sarnath. I found a melting gola and sticky fingers.”

A Sticky Gola Mishap!😅

1:16 – Gola Exploration Begins | Flavours, Vibes & a Sticky Twist 😅
A deep dive into the gola stall — close-ups of syrups, flavors, vendor interactions, and eventually the "Gola Gone Wrong" moment. Includes taste test and candid reactions.

This short travel food vlog takes you through the serene streets of Sarnath, where Buddhist chants blend with chaat masala, and where I attempt to beat the heat with a colorful gola (Indian ice popsicle). What happens when you try to cool off with a colorful gola in the scorching heat of Sarnath… and it all goes hilariously wrong? 😅

In this quick, quirky detour from temples and stupas, I explore the local street food scene of Sarnath, the serene Buddhist city near Kashi (Varanasi). From tangy chaats to vibrant shaved ice (gola), Sarnath’s food stalls offer more than just a quick bite — they serve up stories, chaos, and comedy.

🍽️ Street food highlights: Gola
💥 Plot twist: Gola melts in the middle of camera roll!

🎒 Part of my Backpacking India series: exploring India’s sacred geography through food, people, offbeat flavors and unfiltered stories.

🍧 Watch till the end for the unexpected twist in my gola adventure — because travel isn't always calm, even in the land of Buddha.
