Abroad for the first time!!!!


Back with a totally new blog and a wonderful experience. 

It’s a craze among everyone to go abroad atleast once in their lifetime, get to meet new people, know their life styles, etc. But very few people actually get to live it. I was lucky enough to join “Team Ojas” which gave me wonderful experience of making a formula electric car and also give me the opportunity of going to EUROPE. Yes, Europe; the trip of a lifetime and that too with friends. We represented our university in the Hockenheimring in Germany.




The trip started off by taking a “traveller” bus from our university to Chennai International Airport. Everyone was really excited about the trip as it was the first time abroad for many of us. We boarded the Qatar Airways flight at around 5 in the morning. It was such an amazing flight with a hell lot of movies, TV series and songs collection and also a lot of additional features.



 The flight took off at around 6. Excitement rushed through my veins when the flight was picking up speed in the runway. The flight journey was awesome with our next stop being DOHA (UAE). Being tired from the previous night out, I fell asleep in the flight and only woke up when the flight was landing DOHA and what I saw outside my window was simply amazing. The DOHA airstrip is right next to the sea. So you can imagine what the scenery was from my window.




Our connecting flight to Frankfurt was 2 hours later. So we walked from one side of the airport to the other side for the next flight. Words will be less to express how huge the Doha airport is. With horizontal elevators and trams running inside the airport, it’s just something you don’t get to see always. After the security check in we had some time to kill. There I bought a cup of coffee for 4 €, it was no longer rupees anymore. Then it was time for us to board the flight for Frankfurt. We boarded and then got to know that some of our friends didn’t board the flight as there were some seating issues. The flight took off and some of our friends were left at Doha. The flight from Doha to Frankfurt was a 6 hour journey. I saw some movies, listened to the songs, had food, etc. The moment we landed Frankfurt we got to know that our friends who were left in Doha were given a flight to VENICE. I was like “WHAAAAT!!”.


Stay tuned for more about my small Eurotrip J
