Once upon a time in the desert l Wanderlust & desert dust l Journey to the golden land of Rajasthan

This is one of my favorite movie of all time and my best solo cycling adventure through the Indian desert landscape. On this trip, I felt more loved and connected than on any other my travel adventure. I never lost my confidence, and most of the time, I felt deeply connected to myself. I found myself falling deeply in love with myself. Every day, I Seeing the animals and trees filled me with boundless happiness, and I carried a smile on my face the entire tour.

The feeling of forgetting the world and being completely present was on a different level. It felt like I found my true path by losing this world. This journey truly gave me a unique and spiritual experience.

On my previous trips, I sometimes felt thrilled, suspenseful, or afraid. But this time, every step I took was towards happiness, peace of mind, and love. On this trip, it felt as if I had taken this journey before like it was a path of my own. Sometimes I sensed a long, old relationship with this place.

I am truly grateful to every person I met and to all who showed me kindness. I will never forget the souls I encountered on this journey.
