I am sharing my experience of being on the Maiden journey of Taurus in Nov last year. I came to know about Capt. Sharma and his ambitious project Taurus through a common friend. There were two main reasons which made me decided to board Taurus –
1st. Captain Sharma’s inspiring story as how he went about following his dream against all odds. I visited his facebook page and was impressed by his simplicity, honesty and strong drive and ambition and of course his massive fan following.
2nd. I have never ever experienced travelling in an Over Land Truck ever before so the adventurer in me got all excited and charged up.
The entire trip was for 10 days starting from Pushkar and culminating in Jaisalmer. I was not aware of the detailed itenary as it was a Test and Trail trip for Taurus so every day was full of excitement and new discoveries. As Captain Sharma believes in under promising and over delivering.
Taurus is equipped with all the facilities, high class equipment’s and an amazing kitchen which makes any journey very comfortable for all those who love and are used to outdoor travel and life. We travelled in the interiors of Rajasthan and visited less travelled and unknown but amazing places.
Spending a night under a starlit sky in complete silence is an experience I will never forget. I experienced the RURAL LIFE first hand when we were invited by a local Camel Trader from Pushkar to his village, the personal interaction with BSF people working in harsh conditions, enjoying the hospitality and unconditional support of Indian army and sharing interesting conversations about life with capt. Sharma has made his trip an unforgettable one for me.
I love travelling because more than seeing new places, meeting new people, exploring local culture, food etc; for me its more about SELF DISCOVER and INNER JOURNEY. I thoroughly enjoyed myself.
I wish Capt. Sharma the very best in life and would love to go for more trips with Taurus in future.”
