The Hippie Trail

Three people, each with their own reasons, journey through India's backpacker circuit, only to stumble upon love, friendship, and family.
A coming-of-age adventure drama, Hippie Trail takes the reader on a journey
across India's famed backpacking circuit, in an exploration of the human need for connection and the unknown.

Main characters:
Vinay- A gossip columnist who aspires for freedom, and feels that family and
personal relations are a hindrance to living life fully. He is ambitious and willing to take risks to
be the best in his profession. Gets irritated easily, speaks with little respect for others, is
arrogant, and is the perfect alter ego to his best friend Thomas.

Thomas: Vinay's college mate and best friend. A calm and serious person who has grown up in a
tumultuous family. A part-time cab driver, his father passed away right after his college,
making him the sole breadwinner of the family.

Miranda: A half German, half Malayalee girl, who is traveling across India to visit the destinations that her parents had journeyed together in their youth. With her parents now getting a divorce, she
sees the trail as more than just a path for adventure.
