What unfolded is unexpected -Travellig scene
Last two days I have been travelling and next few days too is not going to be different. It is going to be some grueling days with lots of trekking and travelling in the hills. So either I miss out on posting content or curating content on #hive.
I left my place yesterday, with some nice weather but the moment I landed to big city, the temperature is extremely worse. Anyway, the fun part of travelling in India, is to explore many places as well as to know more about other people. And todsy this is what I notice, in a jam packed train coach.
At first sight I was mistaken the person as being hanged, with a piece of cloth, but sooner I realised it is his way of relaxing. This is called Indian Jugaad. The train is a local coach with only sitting arrangement made and some luggage rack on the top. It was quite a crowded place with loads of people travelling. This type of coaches are meant for short distance travelling.

Generally, there are no resting support provided in the seat, neither there are any head support provided. I such case this old person found his own way of arranging the head rest. He made use of cotton towel also locally called gamcha. It is generally a long piece of cloth. He made use of the luggage support iron rod and tied them on his head.
He can put his head on it and take his part of power nap. Being a cloth support, it provided ample support and didn't harm him anyway. He can keep his head in any way, either on the window or lay down in front. This is unique way where he made use of his brain.
While the whole train was struggling to adjust themselves comfortably, this guy is busy in his nap. No matter what the other passengers are going through. This is surely a better way to relax when no provision were made. A good head support and proper way to enjoy a ride. This is just a glimpse of little part of India.
He looked for the best way to be comfortable among so many people. You have to look for solutions and be comfortable with what you have.
Need is the mother of all invention and this is not different....he needed a nap and without any support he quickly made his own brain for an invention
Haha, that's an innovative bloke right there, and I think he should patent it and start producing them for sale!
No need....most older generation usually carry such lengthy scarf like cloth...which is very thin piece of cotton cloth and have multi utility....but first time I saw ...it being used handsomely
Ok, there goes my business idea. 🥺
Hahaha....visit here you will get N numbe4 of them...😉
Lol.
It's very curious and quite unusual, but human ingenuity is truly infinite.
I admit that at first it cost me a bit to understand the photographs, after looking better I managed to see the man.
Human inventions of another level he ha ha.
Thank you for sharing such interesting photos.

Thanks for the ecency support @manclar even it took me few min to understand....I was sitting few seats back and only went to figure out....he is genuinely a better head on his shoulder...
Yes, and from what you can see he is an older man, so that type of rest suits him.
