It Took Him Only 120 Cans Of Beer To Travel From Edinburgh To India And We Are Talking 7600 Km!
Emmanuel ‘Manny’ Marshall did the most unimaginable hitchhiking experience ever! Enlisted by Scottish brewers “Innis & Gunn” as their promotional ambassador, he traveled from Edinburgh to India (7600 Km) and used the brewer’s 120 cans of “India Pale Ale” craft beer in exchange for accommodation, lifts, and food.
His hitchhiking adventure was a part of an homage being paid to the 18th-century brewers of “India Pale Ale” who used to send beers on 6 month long routes from Britain to India in the earlier times!

Trusting the power of ‘beer exchange’, Manny bartered the beer cans with travelers for food, stays, and what not. According to him, the “craft beer” was famous enough to persuade people for exchanges and looking at his awesome trip, we certainly agree!

To make people travel and see a way of life through it is what Pranav strives to achieve with his content. He firmly believes that the more places anybody visits, the better are the chances for them to truly evolve and become their best version. If he is able to make even one person get off the couch and go explore, then in the words of mighty Thor himself, he is “worthy”.
