I'm Prasanna Sanyal, a 26-year-old adventurer from Kolkata, India . Over the past 2.5 years, I have been on a backpacking journey across the Himalayan regions. From the majestic landscapes of Kashmir, Himachal, Ladakh, Uttarakhand, Sikkim, Nepal, and Bhutan, I've explored some of the most remote and untouched villages.

I've scaled some of the highest and most thrilling Himalayan treks, including Shrikhand Kailash (over 5000 meters), the Kashmir Great Lakes (an 84 km trek showcasing Kashmir's raw beauty), Gurez and Tulail Valley (the last village of India towards POK), Annapurna Base Camp (over 4000 meters), Amarnath Yatra, and over 50 offbeat treks across the Himalayas and Western Ghats near Pune and Bangalore. My solo hitchhiking adventures also led me to explore the Lahaul and Spiti Valley during the harsh winters, with temperatures dropping to around -35°C.

Since childhood, I have traveled to 21 states and 5 union territories in India and visited 6 countries. My goal is to summit some of the world's highest and most adventurous peaks, showcasing the breathtaking high-altitude beauty through my eyes. I am passionate about exploring diverse cultures, regions, and topographies, making friends across the globe, and creating documentary videos of my journeys.

I look forward to meeting amazing travelers and backpackers from all corners of the world.
