Adyaway is a possibility, not just a brand. A possibility for everyone to explore and contribute. As a curious kid, who wanted to learn, travel and explore, my interactive journey as an entrepreneur started at a young age. Moving from Bihar to Lucknow and later living in Delhi for education, I experienced various different locales and cultures while travelling across the country, this helped me to shape my perspectives and knowledge. I saw two extremes of life, making me question my entire journey. This holistic learning experience gave me several opportunities to interact with the finest people coming from different backgrounds. I firmly believe whatever I have learnt in life is from the experiences I have lived, the people I’ve met, and the places I've travelled to Vipassana and daily practice of meditation has also played a major role in shaping my character.
2020 offered me an opportunity to spend time alone with myself, and led me to closely connect myself with nature, in Kasar Devi, Uttarakhand. Various incidents and conversations during my stay there reminded me of sitting in front of my father’s bicycle as a kid and traveling daily to our land where I saw him thriving to deliver the best quality and most authentic produce, which he cultivated with utmost dedication. He wanted to grow the best harvest. My father is the first farmer I know! In my closer interaction with farmers I saw their hardwork and patience, but what amazed me the most was their selfless act of making a choice everyday to give back to nature. This experience made me believe whatever we receive in our lives, we owe it to nature and we must give back to it.
“Isn't it beautiful how our journey is parallel to the journey of a river or a road! We originate from nowhere, and disappear to be complete, but what remains with us is what we return on in this journey, we fight our way through the mountains, we rush through rough and smooth places and sometimes we remain calm and keep moving towards the ocean. But the only difference is, we are capable of making choices where we want to flow.” The vision of Adyaway relies on the belief and faith of making the right choices, being fair and giving back to nature.
