Subrat SaurabhAuthor of Kuch Woh Pal
As I wandered through sacred paths, small villages, and living cultures, I witnessed both beauty and fragility. I saw how tourism, when unmindful, can erode what it seeks to celebrate—but I also saw how conscious travel can heal, empower, and preserve. It became clear that the true traveler is not a visitor but a participant, one who walks lightly, learns deeply, and gives back generously.This book is born from that realization. It is a reflection on the kind of travel that transforms rather than consumes, that nurtures rather than exploits. It is for those who believe that sustainability is not a trend but a way of being; that every journey, no matter how small, can be an act of reverence—for nature, for culture, and for humanity.
