A couple of young friends explore the breathtaking Dojanga and find perfect beauty, stillness and solitude in the heart of Kamrat
The sunlight came through the cloud in patches. I began to run again. I looked everywhere; I tried to remember everything.
I was running every night that summer, more than four miles at a time. When I finished, I stretched my legs in front of our house. An empty street, this would be late at night, the air like a weight pressing on my lungs. I looked at the traffic. I had never been in better shape. I massaged my ankles and spoke to them.
travelogue
Travelling with like-minded girls, all with a shared passion for adventure and discovery, was a tempting idea. After seven years of trekking experience of mountains above 5000 metre high, I started posting my travelogues online for the adventure travelling community, I talked to many young women who had never gotten the opportunity to travel. Whether it was the lack of permission from their families or not having the right budget and resources, they had never been able to travel despite having the passion and drive. Whereas I have had the privilege to travel all across Pakistan all my life. That’s when the idea popped in my mind: I wanted to take these girls along on a trek. This was in month of June, 2019.
