Goal number 35 from my list of 100 goals became reality in April 2026 — I completed the Govardhan Parikrama in India.

Very early in the morning, before sunrise, I started the parikrama barefoot together with a local girl I met a day before. Even though we came from different backgrounds, we shared this special spiritual experience side by side.

Walking barefoot around Govardhan Hill felt magical. The morning air was cool, the atmosphere was peaceful, and slowly the world began to wake up around us. There was something very simple yet deeply beautiful about walking quietly, feeling the earth under my feet, and being surrounded by devotion and nature.

This experience was much more than just completing a goal. It became a memory filled with connection, spirituality, and gratitude. I will always remember that peaceful morning in India and the feeling of doing something so meaningful together with someone I had only just met.
