Ladies of Hive Community Contest #211 - Adventures of Life

avatar

For this week @LadiesofHive - Contest - #211 the questions are:
1️⃣ Skydiving, Treasure hunting, Deep Sea exploration, Space Travel, Excavating archeological of ruins, or any adventure. I recently mentioned about my adventure in paranormal investigation as an exercise in overcoming fear of the unknown. What would you challenge yourself to do as an adventure to remember?

2️⃣ How did you and your family celebrate this year's Harvest Season? As Halloween, La Dia de Muertos, All Saints day, Samhain, or something else?

I have not been much of an adventurous person. Actually I am very scared of adventures, but as time goes by in my life, some times I feel that it's worth trying out a few things in a manner that I feel safe. I did make a list of few things to do on my bucket list. Like one was I wanted to do Deep Sea Diving, I do not know swimming, so it was challenging for me. Though nowadays even if you do not know swimming you can do diving. Here in Oman we do not have that as yet. Last year I attempted diving at the Aquarium. The set up there is huge. To someone it may sound very childish of diving in the Aquarium tank, but trust me it is a huge one and gives you the feeling of being out there in the sea with of course limitations. The whole experience of getting under water was new for me and I was scared, I kept coming up and the instructor had to put good amount of effort on me.

The other adventure on my list was to trek up to the Everest Base Camp, which I completed this year. Oh my god, this was one heck of an adventure, it was just not about the trek, but dealing with the climate, altitude, lifestyle, food, everything was on the table to deal with. Honestly I still cannot believe that I did it, feels so unreal to me. With the amount of complexities that the trek had, this has been one of my best adventure so far.

The other adventure that I would really desire to do is Space Travel. Don't know in my lifetime it will be ever possible, and if possible will it be affordable is the big question. But if both of this works in my favor then this is something I would want to absolutely go ahead with. I have always had this fantasy of watching Earth from above. I want to explore space, see that darkness in it and feel the magic of the stars and planets much closer.

I am not in to the Halloween celebrations, it's not a part of our culture, though since a past few years it is getting famous. During the Halloween time we also have Diwali which is the Indian festival and that is celebrated with lot of joy in our home. This year for Diwali I had my friends come over from India to stay with us. During the day time we were out, up in the mountains and in the evening we had Diwali celebration party at one of my friend's place where we were all supposed to dress traditionally.

Diwali is not a one day celebration, it starts from few days before only and we have dinner parties at each one's place in turn. Normally I make Rangoli on Diwali at my door step, but again, this year I could not do it because of time constraint. I did light some Diyas in the evening. So that's how my festival day was celebrated.

Thank you for visiting my blog. 👼🏻👼🏻💖💖🌹🌺🌸

"I am very scared of adventures, but as time goes by in my life, some times I feel that it's worth trying out a few things" congrats on overcoming ur fears, "diving at the Aquarium" never thought of that, "adventure that I would really desire to do is Space Travel" that's completely another level i hope u make it 1 day, it's a dream for me too i hope humans will make stations on the moon & on mars n near future where visiting those places will b a normal thing to do on vacations & maybe settling down for a while. oman is a nice country salalah is my fav it's very beautiful. well done again & have a good day

That's how exactly I was till some years back, but as life is going by I am feeling that it is ok to take some risk and do some real tough adventures in life.

Wow my friend, the experience of going up to Everest Base Camp must have been incredible. I think this is what we were alive for, to live and try every challenge that makes us feel unique experiences. A pleasure to read you, greetings.

Good for you! That is much further than my learning to Snorkel diving where I plan to book when I get actual vacation time in the Caribbean for some shallow reef diving.
Deep Sea diving does have many preparation safety protocols, far more time spent there than the actual dive itself. A local club practices at a community pool on a regular basis but they say that diving in the open ocean or shoreline can easily be a different thing with many variables and hazards. Everest base camp, wow! Elon Musk may be looking for volunteers to go to Mars.

Diwali, sure! Vancouver is fortunate to have a big Hindu Community and it is well publicized in advance taking well over a dozen city blocks not including residences. And the aroma of lots of yummy traditional foods.
Thanks for sharing @nainaztengra

I would be the first one to volunteer...hehe.
You bet diving has it's own complications and lot of preparations to be done.

For a second there, I thought that was you on that mountain top, then I saw "source." Would've been nice to see pictures of you on these adventures. I for one am very big on adventures, but I haven't been on many. At not daring ones, but oh my bucket list, both imaginary and real, is seething with adventures. Looking forward to those times.

Kudos to you for your bravery. It's not common. And congratulations on your nomination for Writer Of The Week. 🌻
