In this life full of responsibilities and hectic routines, we don’t find time for ourselves. Sometimes we forget to breath in the fresh air, we forget to give time to ourselves and ignore our health. Going out in some different environment is necessary to keep our minds fresh and to realize that there is a world waiting for us outside these walls.

Rana Resort

Outdoor Session

It was after many months that I went somewhere out of city. As our final outdoor session, we went to Rana Resort. It was my first experience to be there. My exposure to nature made me feel pleasant and helped me release the stress of my daily hectic routine. It was one of the best tours of my entire life. From boating to playing cricket and from horse riding to riding a pirate boat, everything was full of excitement.

Best moments

I just love animals and I have no words to describe my feelings when I saw the deer wandering around.

Whenever I see horse I never miss the chance of horse riding so riding a horse in the amids of nature was another best moment of the tour.

“No journey is too long with the right company”

The enjoyment, the singing, the dance and everything we did on our way to the resort were memorable moments of this tour. I sang my lungs out and did not sit quiet even for a minute. It was the best time.

Guiding the Tour

It was an amazing feeling being a tour guide. I felt I can do much more and go where ever I want. I was more confident. Guiding others about the tour was a different yet amazing experience.

Things learned

Among many lessons learnt during this tour, the one stood out for me was how to accept challenge and face my fears. I’m afraid of height to death but I took the challenge of riding the pirate boat. I finally did it but it would be good to stay silent on what happened next.

Another thing I learned was that it is necessary to go on outing to develop a strong bond with friends, exploring new places, experiencing new things together, having some quality time and sharing memorable moments.

Friends for life

Work-Life Balance

This activity was a reminder for us all that how necessary it is to make some time for ourselves. To work properly, even a machine needs some rest. Similarly human body also needs some rest from the monotonous routines. If we are giving time to work, we have to give time to ourselves, to our family and to our friends as well.

I will definitely try to make some time every few months and take my family and friends out. Spend some good time with them and explore new places and make some good memories.
