    You made me cry. I just came back from SDW. I couldn't finish the last 13 miles because of my foot and I was frustrated but also glad that I could make it that far.
    Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I can relate a lot to them. I love your energy and wish you the best!! 😊

    This was such an inspirational video. I probably understand what u went through when u sat down by that trail, and just let things out. I sail ships for a living and i stay at sea, leading a hectic life! On a daily, but there are times, when im by the water on the edge of the ship and the “signs from the world “ that u talked about, do show up. Love that u shot all of this on the gopro!! Its my choice of camera for the kind of life i lead as well. Almost every day that i film at sea is filmed on my gopro as well. Probably one of the best channels in india right now! Thanks for this bro.

    I don’t think I’ve watched a more wholesome vlog in ages. Thank you, Nikhil. You’ve made me want to do more of things associated with nature and this is coming from a person who is likely to be landlocked at most times in her life because that’s just how it’s always been. More power, love and adventure to you!

    Firstly, I hope you're doing better now. The fact that you posted this today is some jolly coincidence for me. My greatest desire for the past few weeks has been the urge to run, somewhere far where I could finally take a breath and ponder over life, enjoying the simple, transient moments of happiness. Now, that not being possible did send in a deep surge of nothingness alongside this constant feeling of just not being in my own skin or soul.
    I really can't thank you enough, but this video is so cathartic. It's almost as if, even for a good 34mins, I could live in and feel what I've been wanting to for long.
    It's not odd that we're all simultaneously undergoing tumults in life, but owing up to it...and sharing these stories with each other, alleviates things so much.
    Really looking forward to this hike, if I ever can.
    Once again, thank you so much for this.

  • @sheshashankar8304

    A little fact about the South Downs Way: The path that you walked is the exact same one that many ultra runners run through during the annual event. Although considered to be one of the easiest 100 milers mostly due to the flat course for most part of it, people train for this for months on end. And you decided to walk through it without any prior preparation. It goes to show the mental strength that you possess, and the sheer determination to push through some of the hardest times. Congratulations Kini, you are an absolute legend! :)
    P.S - I tend to watch so many of your older videos, right from the Take 900 days where you made a bunch of comedy sketches, your travel series from Manali and Rajasthan, etc. whenever I'm feeling low. It helps me cope with pressure and relax for a brief minute. To all the new subsribers here, I'd definitely recommend you to check some of the older videos on this channel. Highly underrated!

    I'm a recent subscriber, and this video really stuck out to me. Taking time for yourself to process is so important and I don't think it's encouraged enough in society. Love the coincidences with the flowers and the scene of your pressed flowers at the end. I also like to think the universe is watching out for us, and giving us reassurance when we most need it. We just have to keep an eye out and notice them.

    This felt so ...healing. I'm currently going through so much stagnation, due to some annoying health issues and that also means, over the past few months when I tried to runaway to the lakes or seaside to go on hikes, my body didn't really co-operate, so I just kinda thought the well atleast I can cry in beautiful places . Thank you for sharing something so vulnerable and wholesome... what you said is true, it's important to just start and take the wins and not get too zoomed in focussing on the loses. Like your wild flowers appeared when you needed them, saying you're okay... you'll be okay, you're being looked out for. I feel like this vlog was that for me. I've recently been reading When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalinithi, an incredible contemplation on life written beautifully... it's a very famous book so I'm sure you may have read it but If not, perhaps check it out. I hope you're in a better place now and I hope you're becoming the person you want to be.

    Hi Nikhil, I was a having a rough day and I happen to click on this video, it was so random but this is exactly what I wanted. It was so thoughtful of you to be so candid and be real about the way you felt throughout. Thankyou for this soul touching video, every second was worth watching. It wasn't just what you said but also every glimpse of the video that you have captured makes it so meaningful and picturesque. I think we all are fighting the same battles in our own way and when you know that someone out there is also going through the same emotions it feels somewhat weirdly safe. Thankyou Nikhil for being vulnerable and thankyou for being you!

As someone whos going to be leaving the country for studies, I've been having doubts whether I will be able to achieve it or breakdown without the constant presence of my people. But this video helped me believe that whatever goes wrong, you need to keep moving and enjoy the journey along the way.
    It felt like I was with you during this journey of yours. I'm glad I got to be a part of this. Cheers Kini

      Damn, it's been quite a journey, these 11 months. It was incredibely hard to get used to a new surrounding without the presence of your family and friends. But trust me, I loved the entire journey up until now, I had so many hard days, but eventually, you will start loving to live by yourself while building yourself up. I have done so many thing that I would have never imagined, 11 months ago.
      It has been a ride and I would never change anything in my journey if I were given a chance.
      All I would tell anyone doubting themselves when they're on the verge of moving cities/countries is that, if I could do it, you could too.
      Stay strong and have the best time.
      I'll come back to this comment a year from now.
