Q1. Why did you start traveling?
Farooq Ali - I have many reasons to start traveling, such as to experience new cultures and ways of life, to relax and get away from daily routines, to learn and grow, or to make memories and experience different cultures, customs, foods, and ways of life. It can also be a great way to create memories that will last a lifetime.
Q2. What made you fall in love with it?
Farooq Ali - When I travel I feel completely free and comfortable making myself learn and grow in my personality that's why I choose to travel.
Q3. How often do you travel?
Farooq Ali - Every month I like to travel, specifically when I am free with the daily routine of life and have a good budget to cover my expenses. So, I started traveling on my motorbike and my Isuzu pickup.
Q4. What’s your favorite place you’ve visited?
Farooq Ali - There are many favorite places but I like Deosai plains, Skardu, Sharan valley, and Soon valley for hiking. I love trails 3, 5, and 2.

I also enjoy meeting new people and making memories with loved ones. Adventure, relaxation, and learning new things are also big inspirations for traveling.
Q6. How did you get into travel blogging?
Farooq Ali - I had always traveled with a passion. I travel to many places, so I thought that let's share my travel experiences with people around the world, especially people of Pakistan because most of my content is in Urdu, our local language that people can understand very well.
Q7. Have you ever come face to face with some extraordinary experience? What was it?
Farooq Ali - During my camping, I always face many extraordinary situations like sometimes there is too much colder weather, and sometimes I ride my bike in hot weather. But I always handle these types of situations in a calm and peaceful manner. These are things that make me strong and make me learn how to take control of my emotions and everything that I face.
Q8. What has been your most rewarding travel moment?
Farooq Ali - Traveling could be very rewarding based on your current situation. I personally motivated many people to start their travel life as it makes us learn more and grow faster. Traveling is not just about visiting places and taking pictures, it is much more than that. It helps you to build the story around and live those stories. When you grow old, what are you going to tell people are your stories.
Q9. Would you like to share some traveling hacks and tips with our readers?
Farooq Ali - There are many, but I mentioned here some:
1. Pack efficiently to save luggage space
2. Download offline maps because you won't get lost if you do this.
3. Put Together A First Aid Kit. Always tell your destination to your family or loved ones.
4. Use good gear, especially if you are camping. Bad gear makes your trip worse.
