From Warm Welcomes to Whacky Road Trips

Huber’s adventure began in Delhi, where he was embraced with unmatched Indian hospitality. “As a white bhai, I was immediately welcomed with incredible food, deep conversations, and lots of laughter,” he shared.

The journey took a dramatic turn when his overnight road trip to Dharamshala hit an unexpected bump—literally. The car suffered a blown tire, leaving the group stranded on a highway in the dark. “Imagine being stuck on an Indian highway, in the pitch dark, as a white bhai on his first visit. It felt like a Bollywood thriller with Amrish Puri lurking somewhere,” Huber humorously remarked.

The night ended with the group sleeping in the car, which Huber described as both “surreal and unforgettable.”

The car stopped dead on the highway!

Tire? Gone. Blown out.

Imagine stuck in the middle of the highway, barely outside of Delhi, a white bhai in the dark night, and my first time in India?

Felt like a bollywood movie with Amrish Puri (villain) lurking in the shadows.

Dharamshala: Serenity and Spice

Upon reaching Dharamshala, the chaos gave way to serenity. Huber was mesmerized by the scenic mountain views, the genuine kindness of locals, and even a playful prank by his friends involving spicy Indian food. “These bhais thought I couldn’t handle it, but I survived – barely!” he joked.

Huber’s highlights included playing football on a mountaintop, an experience he called “wild,” and trekking Triund in the Dhauladhar mountains, which left him deeply moved. “Words can’t describe the feeling,” he said.

It is WILD to even think about this.

We played football on the mountain top!

Another incredible experience…

A Heartfelt Farewell

As his adventure came to an end, Huber expressed gratitude for his unforgettable journey. “I’m deeply thankful to everyone involved. Can’t wait to return to my bhais in India in 2025,” he concluded.

Finally, on my last day, we climbed Triund together. Words can’t describe the feeling.

Deeply grateful for everyone involved!
