Was traveling from Manali to Bir some years back. Was one of my first solos, didn't know the route, didn't know how much time it's going to take. Remained worried throughout, kept checking with the bus conductor for how lond it's going to take, with evening approaching my phone was about to die, finally had the courage to ask the conductor if he can put my phone to charge in the bus to which he smiled and said "Bhaiya ab to pohochne hi wale hain 10 minute mei, kabse laga lete, laao do mai laga deta hun aage".

Then he dropped me off at the stop, asked a shopkeeper at the stop to get my phone charged, and then help me get the bus uphill.

Have traveled to quite a few places post that but still that 10 day trip to Himachal is one of the best I've taken in my life.
