Travel by plane, car, or boat – What do you like?

By road is my favourite mode of travel! That way I have the liberty to stop at the scenic spots and savour them to the fullest.

Your most memorable travel was:

Of all the places I’ve visited domestically and internationally so far, my trip to Leh and Ladakh was the most memorable. It was filled with a lot of firsts for me.

My first time travelling with a bunch of total strangers (who went on to become my closest friends)

My first long biking expedition

My first time riding a motorcycle covering 3000kms

My first time experiencing nature so closely

My first most difficult yet most beautiful adventure and so on

Vacation spot you long to go:

I really long to visit Switzerland

Your favorite travel buddy:

I am my favourite travel buddy …. Lol

Styled up or Casual during travel:

I adjust my attire based on the locations I am travelling to. So when I went on the biking trip it was all about safety and comfort and I kept my styling rugged and smart. When I went to Mauritius it was totally stylish and attractive. It was also the first time I adorned a two-piece bikini ?

Your top three travel essentials:

Mobile – documents and capturing moments, fragrant body spray as I must always smell good. That’s an ocd #sorrybutnotsorry. Thirdly, Cash – the local currency is very important

Land, Hills or Beaches – your preferred choice:

I am a total mountain girl. If you wanna impress me, just whisk me away to the mountains where there’s greenery and rainfalls

Do you prefer solo travel or with someone else?

I prefer to travel with like-minded people. But if that is not a possibility then I will go solo. But travel I will ?

Any road trip experience:

I keep taking short road trips off and on, I make sure I get some time with nature every couple of months.

On one such solo trip, I was headed to Pawna Lake. By the time I reached it was past lunchtime & I was really hungry. I was keen to eat local food so Instead of eating at a restaurant or dhaba I went knocking on the little houses in the village if they’d be willing to provide me with some food.

After trying a couple of houses I finally found a family who was happy to feed me. The lady of the house actually made fresh bhakri and kadi for me & fed me like I was the daughter of that house. ?

Ever since I have gone back there several times & even taken many of my family & friends with me.

Dancing, singing or eating – your favorite habit during travel?

Oh first eating then dancing and singing. I am such a foodie. I make sure to try the local food and cultures wherever I go.
