Sir, thanks for all the informations. (A short message... Hope you will read it😀) Your dedication to explore, unique way of parlance, friendly behaviour, detailing about each and every traditional cuisine, volant expression of joy may it be in the lap of nature or in a sacred place and last but not the least your hearty smile are beyond to express in words. At least I have not seen such a channel so dedicated to explore a particular destination along with their food, culture and tradition. Your tireless work is not only providing us "jankari" and "awesome" videos but also catering the message of love all over the India through your honest and polite behaviour. You have taken a great stride towards promotion of a positive tourism. I should also appreciate the efforts of your camera persons. They are also doing a great job. You'll be pleased to know that "Visa 2 Explore" has taken a permanent place of entertainment in our dining time. My father and mother have become a fan of you. Hope "Visa 2 Explore" family will soon reach the 1 million subscribers and keep growing up. Wish I will meet you on your next visit to Kolkata. Cordially invitation for you if you manage to come at our place(in Birati, Kolkata ). Please let me know your response if you read this.😀 Thank you, Love from Kolkata (West Bengal)

Plus your videos are full of every single detail and you visit most unexplored places in the country with full details of foods and lifestyle and culture. Hats off to you for bringing out our diverse culture from every corner of India and then sharing it with us. And I am just loving this North East episode mostly. I have never been to Meghalaya and Assam so I was not much aware about this zone. But after watching your videos on North East zone I got to know so many places and such diverse culture of this zone. It feels like that I am visiting these places in my mind.

Dear Harish Ji : This video is the best amongst the tour of Meghalaya. It was an opportunity to see Gibbons for the first time. The food is distinctly different from the north Indian food. Culturally also it is different and a very green and clean place. It is an honor to be felicitated with the "ang vastram", bead necklace, wooden carving. The Meghalaya state tourism department should take your help to promote tourism as most of the places looked empty. Honestly, travelling alone is more self-liberating and fun. Does these places have the problems of bugs and mosquitoes after sunset? Best wishes from Mumbai.
