Day 1
22/01/2027
Arrive and exhale in Uttarakhand — Quiet river journaling

Focus: Arrival & settle Day notes: If jetlag hits, take a short nap (30–45 mins max) so sleep stays intact. Keep today light: hydrate, a short orientation walk, and an early night. Anchor: Uttarakhand. Keep the pace gentle—one good moment beats ten rushed ones. Trip notes: If something feels rushed, we’ll skip it. The goal is to come back rested, not exhausted. Weather can change plans—this itinerary has flexible slots on purpose.
