Around half the world in 40 days?
Drupad Mistry, a design consultant, had been living in London, but when he decided to return back to India, he chose a rather adventurous journey.
Ditching the boring old flight, he decided to travel only by public transport and took 12 trains, 35 bus rides, local shuttles, taxis, cycle and bike rides, and even camels to reach India. Sounds quite exciting, doesn't it?
He ended up travelling across 14 countries and 8 time zones, covering a distance of about 21,000km in 40 days. But, he wasn't alone; he brought along two friends – Raul and Vanetia – on this adventurous journey.
While talking to Deccan Herald, he said that along with making new friends in different countries, he also enjoyed eating vegetarian food. He said, “Being a strict vegetarian, my friends would warn me not to make this trip. But interestingly I crossed half of the world and just ate good vegetarian food.”
