Dear Postcrosser,

I'm thrilled to have this opportunity to connect with you. I hope you and your loved ones are doing well.

My name is Vaishak, and I hail from Kannur, a city in Kerala, known as "God's own Country" in the beautiful map of India.

For 12 years, I had the pleasure of working with Marriott International. However, at the beginning of 2022, I decided to take a break and embark on a two-month motorcycle journey across different destinations. It was an incredible experience! Following my adventure, I joined Aster DM Healthcare, and currently, I am based in Kochi.

Life has always fascinated me, especially the moments of solitude that I cherish. When I'm back home, I find joy in the company of my parents and my collection of vintage motorcycles, scooters, clocks, postcards, and radios. These are my treasured possessions that keep me connected to the past whenever I'm on vacation.

During my travels, I delved into subjects like Ikigai and Emotional Intelligence, and I'm passionate about spreading knowledge on how to live a blissful life. In Sri Lanka, I undertook a Cross Country ride, covering 1311 Kms on my Peugeot 1985 Bicycle in 11 days, to raise funds for the Cancer Hospital run by the Government. In India and its border regions, I embarked on a 12500Kms ride in 50 days on my 1965 Jawa Motorcycle to support a Leprosy school. My latest adventure of September 2023, where I Hitchhiked from Singapore to Sikkim 55 days covering 10 countries.

When it comes to postcards, I don't have any specific preferences. I would love to receive a postcard that showcases your goals and dreams because when we write down our aspirations, they become affirmations that will one day come true. However, if you're someone who prefers to go with the flow and not focus on the future, I would be delighted to hear about the most memorable moment in your life. I find great joy in reading such stories.

While you upload your postcards picture try to post a photo of you holding that postcard and that would be something i would love to treasure digitally along with what you are otherwise sending.

During my free time, I enjoy writing quotes, poetry, and documenting my travel stories on Instagram. You can find me at www.instagram.com/shorestopinnacle.

Sending you love and warm regards,
