First Trip to Goa with Friends: Epic Adventures and Hilarious Memories I'll Never Forget
We’ve all planned trips that never happen during our student life—unless it’s a so-called educational trip or some “oh-so-important” excursion. But how many of you relate to this? “Goa chalte hein yaar”—a phrase every friend group has heard at least a hundred times. I’m no different. So today, I’m sharing the tragic saga of our ill-fated Goa trip. After navigating the emotional pyaar bhari dhamkiyan from my mom (“Woh Goa wale bacche ache nahi hote!”), my dad’s financial lectures (“Do you think money grows on trees?”), and the constant tang Adana by siblings (“If you go, I’m telling Mom you failed that test”), we finally made a pact. Fourteen of us—10 boys and four girls—decided it was now or never: A grand five-day trip to Goa!

The Not-So-Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani Manali Trip
Hey folks, listen up! First things first, I’m not some influencer or celebrity getting free sponsored trips—let’s clear that air. My story is a little different. So, let’s rewind to the pre-COVID era, back when sanitisers weren’t something we carried in our pockets (correct me if I’m wrong!). It’s November 5th, 2018, exactly the day after our third semester exams wrapped up. That’s when the big Announcement made me more popular! Our department dean casually announced, "So, you all need to plan an excursion trip and Adya will lead you all."
