  Bhutan got added to my bucket list only during my last year trip to Spiti. There were a bunch of Travel enthusiasts who had been to Bhutan and they spoke so much about Tiger’s Nest hike that for a trek lover like me, just couldn’t resist but keep this on top of my bucket list for 2019. So here I am, with another travel tale, taking you all to Bhutan, the Land of Thunder Dragon. By the way, does anyone know the reason why it is called “The Last Shangri-La”? Shangri la is a place where everything is perfect and exactly how a heaven is supposed to be. Amazingly Bhutan has conserved its resources so well and used its resources so wisely that it has been called the last Shangri La due to its richness and a sense of attachment the country has for its nature and environment. I chose to visit Bhutan during March since the weather is pleasant during this time of the year. Few of my friends had already shortlisted what places needs to be covered and when we sat down to check

Honestly Hampi was never in my bucket list because I am not a history loving person. But thanks to my friends whom I met during my Spiti trip for making this happen. It was a plan made 6 months back and was executed really well. Kudos to my girls J Our plan was to visit Hampi, Pattadakal and Badami. So we had planned a detailed itinerary of 3 days which we felt was sufficient to cover the important attractions we wanted to see. After the planning, next steps were to arrange for travel and accommodation. We hired a car from Bangalore so that we can tour at our own pace and there is not much hassle.   Next we wanted to ensure that we chose the right place of stay. One of my friend suggested Hotel Malligi which is in Hospet. Distance from Hospet to Hampi is just 10 km distance which hardly takes around 15 minutes’ drive by car. So we made reservations for our stay here. Day 1 :   Starting our Journey to heritage trail We started from Bangalore at 6 am. Took one stop break

Gokarna Beach Trek and Camping – Sept 29 th and 30 th 2018 When we hear about treks, we imagine lofty mountains or lush green hills. Well, if you want to try something entirely different, then you must read this blog on Gokarna Beach Trek. You must be speculating what is there to trek around beaches. But trust me by the end of this blog, you will add this place to your bucket list. Gokarna   is a small beach town on the coast of the Arabian sea, home to a must-visit Hindu Pilgrimage site – the Mahabaleshwar temple. This quaint little town gets equal attention for its many calm and clean beaches; tourists from across the country, as well as foreigners, are drawn to the beauty of the town. To really experience the sanctity and sight-lines of Gokarna, trekking along the coastline and exploring one striking beach after another is recommended. You are bound to be a victim of love at first (beach) sight! As part of this trek, we covered the following beaches along the coas
