I have to confess, I rarely travel by train. My overland trips to date have all been road trips and take inspiration from my destination bucket list; I never seem to consider the option to ride the rails.

Sure – you could fly, boat, or drive your way to the world’s most picturesque locations and get to take in the scenery along the way, and you may need to in order to get close enough to start. However, to truly appreciate the sights, sounds, smells, and sensations that make our world incredibly diverse and unique, you need to strap on your most comfortable shoes, and start walking!

I can imagine that to a lot of people, travelling long-term with your significant other is a daunting thought…

Even on nights when the sky is clear and pristine, the city lights definitely conceal the innate darkness that nature has, making the vast skies look less magnificent at night.

There are many stargazing locations in the world and across India, with many stretches of wilderness which present many revealing sights of the expansiveness of the universe. Whether you would like to see a meteor shower or the Milky Way, these locations will definitely leave you spellbound.
