A wise man once said, "no one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow."
Picture of the Week #41
Mr. Gogawale ("mountain man") baba resting on Mt. Kamalgad. He is the care-taker of a temple on this mountain and earns his living by playing host to trekkers. He also acts as a guide. The 81-year old gentleman has the stamina of an 18-year old!
Mr. Gogawale held a Masters degree and had spent a majority of his life in the mountains. His love and passion for nature was awesome! His biggest fear was the densely forested plateau of Koleshwar becoming "New Mahabaleshwar".
