## About

Namaste Everyone, I am Harsha, a 22 year old solo traveler, walker, cyclist and an avid adventurer\. I lost my father at a very young age and was raised by a single mother\. Growing up, I was an active student at school, was a volleyball and cricket player and meeting new people was always something that excited me\. Over time, I realized that fitness and travel are 2 things that I'm very passionate about and started working towards realizing my dream\. I wanted to solo walk across India from Karnataka to Kashmir and bring awareness regarding fitness, sustainable travel and the culture of Coastal Karnataka\. I started my walk from Brahmavar ,udupi dis\. on September 19, 2021 and traveled through Goa, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Haryana, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh and finally reached Jammu & Kashmir\. I covered a total of 2,800 Kms in a span of 56 days, covering almost 50 to 60 kms per day\. My homes during this period of travel were tents, police stations, railway stations, petrol pumps, dhabas, temples etc\. I met so many kind people along the way who accommodated me, showered me with kindness and provided me with food and water\. The highlight of this trip was when I presented ‘Pili Yesa’, which is an integral part of Tulunadu culture in Lakhanpur in Jammu & Kashmir\. There was a gathering of more than 100 people who were truly entertained and were so curious to know about our culture and traditions\.
