Whenever I travel, I become a part of various stories I come across.
These strangers are more than mere unknown faces. As an artist I have always studied them so deeply, which teaches me a lot about life.
Once I was so negative that I felt suicidal, but unsurprisingly God was there to hold me firm again like always.
I was travelling to my hometown, while sitting inside the train I saw a blind man who was selling pens in train. There was no hopelessness on his face but the determination of working things his way. This experience filled me again with love of my life.

Its little strange but sometimes I like travelling in general class, you see so may different characters, so many people looking for survival of one seat. There is so much to adjust, sometimes people fight, then I see mothers carrying small kids but still manage to make room for them to sleep.
People come for selling things and that is what is their daily earning.
Travel let us experience so many untouched and unseen things of life, how people behave.
Sometimes when I am feeling too bored , i like travelling in train, I have often found it very interesting.

So do I. Travelling that too with a lot of people from different spaces is altogether a mesmerizing experience the ones who have traveled in train has really missed out a lot to experience.
Also I have met various people who ask you about your destination and the talk starts with some common subjects and it may go a long way all through your journey.
I mostly travel solo and so observing the people is one of my favorite pastime in my journey.

@kaanchi Yes , it is when we start travelling solo that we get to observe so many people.You will observe that the train route defines the kind of people. You may observe stark difference between people and their dialect, language , lifestyle even within train, when it is going towards north from Mumbai and then you go to a train travelling South like Chennai, Trivandrum or Bangalore.
Each has its own unique set of passengers.
