Vegetarian Must-Eats in Argentina
I was told that being a vegetarian would be tough in Buenos Aires, a city that is famous for steak and meat. However, I was pleasantly surprised at the options that I had while I was in the city. I was well fed all the time…rather…I was over fed all the time! As a vegetarian, here are a few things that I would recommend you to try…
Tokyo: 4 Day Itinerary
I spent about 4 days in Tokyo and had a great time. I was told that 4 days in Tokyo is too much time, but honestly, I thought that it was perfect to visit the city and places around it. In fact, it would have been great to have a couple of more days to do a few day trips.

Sintra is a must do day trip from Lisbon. The cultural landscape of the little town of Sintra, together with the colourful Pena Palace and Moors Castle, feature in the UNESCO World Heritage List and it sure deserves to be in the list.
Bucketlist 2019: Itching to Travel!
There is so much that we want to do this year...Argentina, Japan, Colombia and a few more destinations. Hopefully, we will be able to visit at least a couple of destination on our bucketlist. What is on your 2019 bucketlist?
Keukenhof Gardens: Tulips, Tulips, Tulips
Spring is here and the Keukenhof Gardens have thrown their doors open to the public. Keukenhof is the largest tulip garden in the world and is totally worth your time if you are in love with flowers. I went to Keukenhof last year in May and spent the entire day walking around the place, yet I could not see the whole garden!
Amsterdam: Day Trips
Ankur and I went to Amsterdam about 4 years ago. We spent four days in city and enjoyed the museums, the parks and the walking tours (day and night). However, we did not explore anything around the city, which is a pity, as there is so much see and do all around Amsterdam. Especially during the summer months, the beaches are great picnic spots and the wind mills are ideal for pictures. The next time that we visit the Netherlands, we will make sure that we spend more time exploring little towns around Amsterdam. Here are a few day trips that are on our mind...
Flashback 2018
2018 was a great travel year. I was based in Spain and had the opportunity to explore Europe. I used the student card and the Schengen visa to explore Western and Eastern Europe as well as the Iberian peninsula. Here is a snapshot of 2018...
RKPO Green Resort, Punakha: Review
We went to enchanting Bhutan in February 2017. Our itinerary took us to three cities - Paro, Thimphu and Punakha. In each of these cities, we stayed in good premium hotels that made our trip even more enjoyable. However, our favourite resort was the RKPO Green Resort in Punakha. The resort is green, literally. The exteriors are painted green and are adorned with typical Bhutanese paintings, giving it the name.
Here is our review of the RKPO Green Resort, Punakha.
Day Trips from Prague
I spent a few days in Prague, and fell in love it with the city. Many in my hostel went for day trips to interesting sites, but I stayed put in Prague and spent every evening on the Charles Bridge. Do I regret it? Absolutely not! I loved every minute in Prague. But if you are blessed with itchy feet and like to explore more, here are three day trips recommended by travel bloggers.
5 reasons to visit Kenya in 2019
Kenya is one of the most majestic countries in Africa and a place where a diverse range of climates and topography meet. There are loads of different nations across Africa that should be considered, but I think it is difficult to find anywhere that quite matches Kenya. Part of Africa’s stunning Great Lakes region, it is no surprise that Kenya has seen a 16% growth in tourism in 2018.
Must See in Prague!
I went to Prague and Budapest earlier this year. Prague made me feel that I was walking through a fairy tale town. There was a castle with spires and music all around. Smell of cinnamon and trdelník filled the air. The sky was blue and the I could see white clouds in all possible animal shapes. It’s a pity that I was in this beautiful city, alone. I missed Ankur and thus, I shall soon be back to make sure that the romance in Prague transcends into our life as well.
Bolivia: Packing Tips
Are you planning to visit the Salar-e-Uyuni and get some goofy pictures taken? Or do you intend to simply relax by the blue waters of Lake Titicaca on Isla del Sol, which is believed to be the birth place of the Sun by the Incas? If either of these, or both are on your bucketlist, is it evident that you are planning a trip to Bolivia. While the usual stuff will make its way into your backpack, here are few things that you must have while travelling within Bolivia. Make sure you stock up on all this at the local market in any of the Bolivian cities before you commence your soujourn.
Budapest …Best Vegetarian Restaurants
I had an awesome time sampling vegetarian food in Budapest. Here are five places that I enjoyed a good meal… Karavan: This is possibly the... Read More
Budapest…for the Vegetarian Soul
It is not very easy being a vegetarian in Europe. In Spain, when I say that I am a vegetarian, the waiters assume that I eat tuna and ham. 'Who does not eat tuna and ham?', is an oft asked question in Spain. I wasn’t expecting Budapest to be a vegetarian-friendly city, especially the local cuisine. I knew that I could find pizza places that would help me survive, but I assumed that the local Hungarian food would be meat dominated and I would end up eating pizza slices all the time that are good on the pocket but bad on the stomach.
Budapest: When, What and Where?
I have been to many cities in many countries in the past one year while I was in Madrid; none of them made my heart skip a beat…and then, Budapest happened. I spent the past three days in Budapest and I already know that I will be back soon. Budapest is like a real city, with real people…and it does not pretend to be anything else.
Day Trips from Madrid
I often get emails from my readers seeking help to plan their Spanish itinerary. Everyone wants to run to the south of Spain and hardly anyone wants to stay in Madrid. Well, if you have the same thought, think again! Madrid and its surroundings have so much to offer that you can spend about a week exploring various sites around Madrid. While I am yet in the discovery phase, here are five-day trips that I would recommend from Madrid:
Rome: Visiting the Colosseum
Last month, I went to New York for an event and had a layover in Rome that lasted 7 hours. It didn't take any effort to decide that I will run from the airport to the Colosseum to tick this item off my bucketlist. And oh...did I run! From the airport to the Colosseum and back... I ran all the way! It was a crazy day and I rushed through things. That being said, I could still spend about 3 hours at the Colosseum and am so happy about it!
Valencia: Top Things to do!
If you are in Spain, Valencia is a must do city. Regardless of your age or interest, you will find that Valencia has enough and more to keep you busy.
New York… New York!
Last month, I spent three days in New York. It was my first visit to North America. I am not sure if I love New York, but I sure am fascinated by it. Here are a few things that caught my eye:
Portugal: One Week Itinerary
Having spent a few months in Spain, it would be unfair not to visit Portugal. So, here I am... in Lisbon! The capital of Portugal has a lot to offer - amazing vistas, delightful food, and friendly people. However, Portugal has a lot more to see than just Lisbon... read on to know what I would propose for a week-long trip to Portugal.
