🌄 Rajasthan – Rangon Ki Kahani, Ret Ki Diary Aur Yaadon Ka Safar

(A Real, Heartfelt Travel Story You’ll Want to Read Till End)

"Mujhe yaad hai wo pal, jab pehli baar Rajasthan ki mitti ki khushboo mehsoos hui thi… ret uda, hawa chali, aur mann kahin kho gaya tha."

Kabhi kabhi sochta hoon, zindagi mein travel ka asli maza kis cheez mein hota hai? Shaayad woh jagah nahi, balki woh ahsaas jo aap us jagah se le jaate ho. Aur jab baat Rajasthan ki ho, toh kehna padega – ye ek riyasat nahi, ek jazba hai.

✨ Rajasthan Kyun Chuna Maine?

Honestly bolun, toh maine Goa aur Kerala ke beech decision lena shuru kiya tha. Lekin pata nahi kyun, ek din randomly Instagram scroll karte karte, Jodhpur ka ek blue city view dekha – aur bas, wahi se Rajasthan ne dil chura liya.

Rajasthan ki baat hi alag hai – yahan:

• Sheher nahi, kahaniyaan baste hain.

• Haveliyaan nahi, puraana waqt saans leta hai.

• Aur log? Ek baar mil lo, zindagi bhar yaad rakhoge.
