Hi beloved Local Guides,
The meetup I’m writing now the recap of was originally scheduled to take place on 22nd September, 2024. This meetup we have meet at the Mahatma Phule Museum [https://g.co/kgs/cDNFhF1].
Just a small photo dump from visited Museum.
Visiting the Mahatma Phule Museum during our Local Guide Meetup was a memorable experience, not just for the rich history we encountered but for the shared sense of discovery among us. Exploring the museum with @TusharSuradkar @ShubhamWaman @SatyaAuti @Prasad_Shinde @MerlinThomas , and the rest of the group added a layer of connection as we dove into the exhibits together, each offering a unique perspective on the artifacts and stories presented.
Joyful experienced:
The museum, a tribute to Maharashtra’s industrial and social journey, showcased everything from agricultural innovations to the inspiring life and reforms led by Mahatma Phule and Savitribai Phule. As we wandered through the gallery of early tools, textile displays, and engineering models, our discussions became animated, each of us reflecting on how these innovations shaped the modern world we now live in.
What truly tied the experience together was the camaraderie and collective learning. It wasn’t just about seeing history; it was about interpreting it together. The museum visit left us inspired, connected, and motivated, as we reflected on the roots of innovation, progress, and reform, knowing that, like the exhibits, we each bring something valuable to the table when we come together as a community.
Post-Museum Exploration: Food, Fun, and Connections:
After our enlightening visit to the Mahatma Phule Museum, our adventure took a delicious turn as we set out to explore the flavors of Pune’s vibrant food scene. But this wasn’t just any ordinary food walk—it became a wonderful extension of our Local Guide Meetup, where food, conversation, and fun seamlessly blended.

1. The Culinary Journey Begins
Our first stop was Jhanvi’s Corner, a humble yet iconic eatery where we found not only great food but also a cozy space to unwind. We sat together, enjoying the warm company of fellow local guides, exchanging stories, and diving into lively conversations that reflected our shared love for exploration. The cold coffee and veg cheese sandwiches made for the perfect refreshments, adding to the joy of the moment.
2. Fun and Games with a Twist
What made this experience even more memorable was the spontaneous quiz we organized. By the way, I emerged as the quiz winner! The quiz wasn’t just about knowledge—it was about camaraderie, laughter, and a bit of friendly competition. We exchanged gifts and memories, making this moment much more than just a gathering.
3. A Celebration of Connections
As we wrapped up the day, it was clear that our time together had created more than just memories—it had forged new connections. What began as a simple visit to a museum had blossomed into a day filled with learning, laughter, and lasting friendships. The food, the quiz, and the shared moments all came together to form a perfect conclusion to our meetup.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined the meetup, whether you were there in person or connecting virtually!
