Hi Guys, I'm Ricky. I'm a budget traveler. After traveling in India i decided to travel the world and wanted to see how beautiful this world is. My main intention is to motivate and encourage all those people who had never traveled or are willing to travel but are a bit scared or nervous. Mostly people are thinking that TRAVELING is expensive but in reality it's not. I'm traveling the world with minimum possible funds and trying to show people how smartly we all can travel. In my videos, I try to show people that how we can TRAVEL for free, STAY for free and EAT for free :) #Rickyreach #camping #incredibleindia #maharashtra #camp #campinglife #couchsurfing #india #hiddengems #intothewild #wild #wildcamping #campinginforest #campingovernight #naturelovers

"Laugh" It's feels good being with such friendly people. Having a good time here Camping for the first time But having a lot of fun too That's "Shekhar" you met earlier Who brought a mini house with him Actually he has brought a small resort Yes, he has also brought a small resort with him. So i am busy enjoying with them It's 7:15 in the evening, an
d as you can see, it's completely dark in here. this is a lifetime experience yeah it's the experience of a lifetime we're living right now You should also experience these things only then you will be able to learn a lot. so he's our teacher for tonight Yeah! He is our teacher He's our Guru....Guru "Basil" our delicious snacks is ready Someone is trying to steal my food so let's try this Paneer. Very tasty They grilled this paneer over wood fire, so that's why it tastes delicious See "Biswas" s
itting behind me & enjoying the food Our organizer "Gauri" was busy cooking some delicious dinner for us And some Couchsurfing members were busy having fun 1...2...3 Sorry It's 10:40 pm now and finally our dinner is ready So guys let me show you what's on my plate... This is Bhakri (Roti) And this is Dry Mushroom gravy And these are all Couchsurfing members who came camping with us That's "Shekhar" you met earlier And here we have some more Couchsurfing members And she's our organizer woohoo You
came camping and you don't sing, this can't happen at all Singing (Marathi Song) Good Morning Not at all "Laugh" It is 7 in the morning now and I am standing right near "Gadeshwar Dam" and this is the tent i was staying in Can you see that big tent behind me... I was living in that same tent That tent is so big that 7 to 8 people can easily live in it. but we were only 6 people who slept in that big tent so i just came out of the tent so i could do some videography because last night i couldn't
shoot anything because it was too dark It feels good to be here This place is really very peaceful If you want to spend some peaceful time with your family then you must visit this place This place is very beautiful. From here you get to see many beautiful views This place is about 8 km from Panvel bus station. You can come here by bike or car It will take around 30 minutes to reach here But I have heard that there are buses also which leave from Panvel bus station after every one hour. But I'm
not sure But I have heard that there are some buses which drop you near Gadeshwar lake but I am not sure If there are some buses then you can come here by bus As a budget traveler traveling by bus would be the best option This place is on the outskirts of Mumbai but this place is really nice and peaceful So do visit this place Right now it's so cold here If you come here during monsoon specially in June-July then this place is going to be very green But do not visit this place during monsoon as
you will not be able to camp Right now there aren't many people here except us But there are 3-4 families but they are camping on the upper side But we came down and we pitched our tent near the dam As i said that this place is really very beautiful, So do visit this place You can visit this place during summer but it is going to be very hot here The best time to visit this place is during winters So now it's time for me to shut up and start showing you some of the beautiful views of this place
As you can see that there are some fisherman over there They're too busy fishing on the swim tube And on my left is a beautiful mountain, just behind this mountain is "Matheran". And "Neral" is right behind those mountains The fisherman has finally caught some fish and so he is going back home He was fishing while sitting on that back tube which he is carrying along with him This water leads to Dudhani You can swim here if you want but we decided not to because the water is kind of muddy Actual
ly... there are corals under water that's why the water is looking kind of muddy But if you want then you can definitely swim here There are no charges at all It's totally free there is a campsite right in front of me They are developing that area especially for tourists So I think within a month or two that area will be completely turned into a campsite And if you want you can stay there too but then you have to pay for it But I would advise you to pitch your tent here in this field because fro
m here you get to see the beautiful view of this place You can also bring your bike here And here you can see some fellow couchsurfers sitting inside a tent We came to this place yesterday evening and they're basically all couchsurfers So this is how you can spend your beautiful time at this beautiful place So friends, it is 8:15 in the morning and the sun has come out. so now it feels good because now the climate is perfect So now we're going to make some coffee and after drinking coffee, we wi
ll spend some time and leave from here. And here you can see some fellow couchsurfers Good Morning Very good morning What a terrible night So freezing cold Couldn't sleep Not even for half an hour Finally we got a nap when the sun is out And now we're out Going out right? Yea! Can't sleep anymore Cannot sleep The guy you were listening to is "Shekar" And this big tent behind me belongs to "Shekhar" Even he came here to enjoy but none of us thought that he has prepared so many things for this cam
ping event He brought so many things for everyone And so I want to thank "Shekhar" from the bottom of my heart And btw the Gadeshwar dam is named after Gadeshwar temple So guys, I am having breakfast now And for breakfast I am having Roti and some vegetables that were cooked last night and so i am enjoying having this delicious breakfast So Guys! Now it's 10 in the morning and so i am enjoying having this hot tea So now we're busy packing our stuff And two of the couchsurfers are about to leave
And the rest of them are busy packing their stuff So now it's time to leave Btw right in front of me is a "Chanderi Cave" So if you want then you can go there as well Chanderi Cave is right behind me There is a flag over there. I'm not sure if you can see that flag So if you want then you can go there as well But you'll have to do some trekking But to reach that place you have to be a hardcore trekker Mostly only village people are going there or some hardcore trekkers prefer to go to that place
as it is kind of risky So it's 11 in the morning and now it's time to leave We were supposed to leave at 10 in the morning but we are leaving at 11 And this place is very quiet. there is no one here except us So i enjoyed a lot here And I hope to meet these couchsurfers again in the future If there is a camping event with these guys in the future then I will definitely attend So how was the event? Oh! I did fabulous. It was amazing Boys are happy Boys played well Amazing and chilling right? Yea
They did good. They behaved, so everything is fine. We slept not well but it's okay. So would you like to join this kind o even in the future? I mean, you might ask if I'd want to organize this kind of event again yea yea Like i did...Oh yea yea I owned this event and will own it again Gauri was the organizer but in reality you owned the event I owned this event So yea we'll do it again unless i am in India Yea yea So it was a pleasure meeting you bro Awesome.

Yea definitely It was so good It was awesome and a bit chilling Big chilling and we did all the things ourselves It was a very good experience So would yo
u like to join this kind of event in the future? Yes yes for sure so i had a great time with Subhash too So here we have two more guys On the right is a guy from Kerala and on the left is a guy who came late at night like a ghost What's up Guys So he is a hardcore trekker Not hardcore Heavy level He had been to Chanderi caves which is actually very risky So should people visit "Chanderi Caves"? They should So can anyone go there? Just prepare everything before going to Chanderi Caves Be prepared
physically & mentally He is not a couchsurfer but if he joins couchsurfing I am sure people will definitely follow him instead of following Gauri He might become our new organizer And he is our cute Kerala guy Hi So how was this camping event? It was beautiful and the place is really beautiful too it was a wonderful experience So would you like to get settle down here No i can't settle here But you enjoyed a lot right? Yea i enjoyed a lot here This place is also very beautiful This place is goo
d for Nature lovers Nature lovers must definitely visit this place Can visit during holidays or weekends This place is also historical You can also see some beautiful view points from here. This guy from Kerala knows more than me and this guy knows more than us So do follow this guy, The day he joins Couchsurfing, I'll let you know This is the song from 90's Cool Very old melody This song is actually of 1962 So I'll show you how the melody comes from guitar And then how does it change Okay So fi
rst we'll sing it in melody I greet these humor and this game, Just these chats are of use to me. Someone will glance back and see, Some gaze must be there to my name. Now when it comes from Guitar I greet these humor and this game, Just these chats are of use to me. Someone will glance back and see, Some gaze must be there to my name. Beckoning, I roam on roads, on lanes of florets, For, just a glance of love, just a shade of plaits. Beckoning, I roam on roads, on lanes of florets, For, just a
glance of love, just a shade of plaits. Beckoning, I roam on roads. Please do not go away like this and make me restless For my sake, please come back May they not steal away the clouds of your hair May they not steal away the clouds of your hair For my sake, please come back to me The limit of waiting has been reached Come on everybody I haven't heard any news of my beloved I have faith, That she is not unfaithful. Then what is the reason, Behind the wait One more The limit of waiting has been
reached I haven't heard any news of my beloved
