Vellingiri
February was crazy. Between studying for my AS Level Chemistry and Maths papers, my brain was totally fried. I really needed a break from the textbooks.
So this weekend, the crew (Shankar, Sabarish, Gayathrri, and I) decided to hit the Velliangiri mountains. If you know Velliangiri, you know it’s no joke. It’s super steep, rugged, and completely exhausting—but honestly, that’s exactly why we love it. Sabarish and Gayathrri kept our pace in check so we didn’t burn out too fast on the way up.
The views were amazing, but seeing plastic wrappers everywhere always ruins the vibe. We pulled out our bags and packed out a bunch of trash on the way down. It feels awesome to add that to our 17 kg total!
My legs are completely dead today, but my mind is finally clear.
Who’s hitting the dirt with us next time?
