Alhamdulillah. Selesai entry 10days journey to Kashmir & India golden triangle. What a wonderful experience. My 1st time join geng backpackers & they are awesome. Rezeki mengenali geng travel yang best! Few days after trip, i write a review in my fb. So i wanted to share it here as my epilogue entry. And i'm gonna add up few other things yang dirasakan sesuai dan relevan.
It was a wonderful experience. Being the 1st timer, travel backpack with the people you don’t know, I would say, this is a good start & not bad at all. Being extrovert is an advantage for sure. Haha. Secara keseluruhannya, I have no problem with the trip even ada things yang dah plan tak bole buat, ada add up kos sikit-sikit, biasalah tu. Namanya pun travel. Expect the unexpected dan berlapang dadalah. Dramas? Well, what do you expect..Jalan 9 orang kot, macam-macam hashtag keluar, tapi all in all, semuanya OK je. This is part and parcel of the journey. Life pon macam tu kan? As long as semuanya boleh manage, kira hokey sangat lah tu.
For those yang senasib dengan saya, having backpain/slip disc, this backpack style mungkin agak mencabar since we cannot carry heavy things. My two sisters keep asking me, are u sure K.long? Backpack? Mukatamad ke ni? Can u just bring beg troli tu? And the answer is NO. huhu. If u have slip disc tapi nak cuba juga, please ambil vitamin/ubat untuk saraf 1 month advance sebelum trip, at least pain tu bearable. Do consult your doctor. Do your physiotherapy. Minimize barang-barang yang nak dibawak. Opt for something pakai buang. Alhamdulillah, as for me, backpain attack few times tapi masih boleh control. Thanks to neurobion & bekalan ubat yang ada. Do some walk to train your body, ni untuk makhluk2 yang kurang berjalan. 1 month before ku jalan-jalan pusing tasik 3kali seminggu. Haha. Know our body condition and do whatever we can supaya kita tak menyusahkan orang during trip. Well, at least we can minimize it. Muka cekodok penyet kadang2 tak boleh elak bila tengah menahan sakit tu kan, tapi apekan daya. Budak pipi tembam with mata teduh menyebabkan muka macam mintak nyawa je bila tak senyum dan tengah gangguan emosi. Haha.
As for Kashmir & India Golden Triangle, just like what I discover when I was in Chennai, same goes to Kashmir, Delhi, Agra & Jaipur. I learn about survival. I can see different kind of survival. Orang di Kashmir survive dengan cara berusaha gigih, do whatever they can to earn money in a more “clean” way, scam ada jugala kot sesikit tapi di Golden Triangle, aiyyo… scammers are everywhere.. cheating all the way..kena be extra alert dan jangan mudah terpedaya. Berjalan ke tempat yang less fortunate dari tempat kita mengajar kita erti syukur, don’t complain much sebab orang lain rupanya lagi susah. Then came the ayat “Maka nikmat Tuhan kamu yang manakah kamu dustakan?”. Pastu rasa macam kena lempang laju-laju sebab selalu lupa diri, focus pada benda yang kita takde padahal benda yang kita ada banyak lagi. Sepanjang jalan-jalan dan lihat kehidupan mereka yang susah, I understand the true meaning of “We define our own happiness”, walaupun macam-macam benda kurang but they can still have a good laugh, play around and have some fun. India is such a wonderful country, tapi sayang, keindahan dicemari dengan sikap rakyat yang kurang civilize tu menyebabkan ku rasa kalau nak repeat pun, Kashmir je kot. And definitely akan try pergi kawasan2 lain pulak like shimla, goa maybe, jodpur & many more. Keadaan india yang nampak serabut, banyak orang susah dan gelandangan, agak kotor dan berbau mungkin sebab penduduknya terlalu ramai, masalah kewangan yang kritikal & macam2 lagi. Kalau yang kaya, kaya sangat. Yang miskin, miskin amat.
For gang trip karipastijadi. Thank you very much for everything. K.Maya & Nana untuk tunjuk ajar macam2 since before trip start lagi. Roommateku Thirah almost everyday tolong letak minyak and massage belakang, nasibla kan thirah dapat roommate yang macam2 penyakit since start sampai abes trip, huhu. Ketua trip a.k.a Zaha yang makes this trip happen walaupun macam-macam dugaan dan cabaran sehingga right before flight take off, huhu. Geng-geng lelaki Ibnor, Jack, Qayyum & Zul yang tolong angkatkan beg, jadi body guard, tolong nego harga, tolong bebel “ko dah letak rub kat blakang blom?” dan macam-macam lagilah. It is so nice knowing u guys!
I wish them all the best in what ever they do. So sorry utk apa2 salah silap atau kekurangan. I take full responsibility for what ever mistake and misbehave that I’ve done sepanjang trip. They are owesome people. I believe Allah let me know them so i can learn from them. Seriously, everyone of us has our own life issues, survival story, amazing life experience (personal or work) and insyaAllah we learnt something from each other. Hopefully..ada rezeki, panjang umur we can travel together again. InsyaAllah.
Trip karipastijadi signing off. Thanks for the memories and Alhamdulillah for the opportunity. =) =)
