A place to write down trips — where I went, where I stayed, what it cost, and what I'd change next time. Written between weekends and deadlines.
A relaxing offbeat trip to Tirthan Valley, Jibhi, and Shangarh with office colleagues — riverside vibes, meadow treks, and poker nights. The kind of trip where doing nothing is the plan.
A week-long family trip to Bhutan via train and road. Thimphu sightseeing, Chelela Pass, Tiger's Nest viewpoint, and an honest breakdown of what it actually costs to visit Bhutan in 2026.
A 10-day trip with friends through Cebu, Moalboal, and Manila. Scuba diving with sardines, canyoneering at Kawasan Falls, Osmena Peak, and honest costs of doing the Philippines on a budget.
A company offsite turned into a proper Dubai experience — Dubai Frame, Global Village, desert safari, Burj Khalifa, Ferrari World, and an honest take on what's worth your money.
4 days in KL — Batu Caves, KL Tower, Petronas Twin Towers at night, Genting Highlands gondola, Chin Swee Caves Temple by van from Awana SkyWay, and getting around on a budget.
5 days in northern Vietnam — Hanoi's Old Quarter, the famous train street, a Halong Bay cruise, Ninh Binh boat ride through karst mountains, and a full city history tour. All costs and tips included.
A quick winter trek to Nag Tibba — the highest peak in the lower Himalayas of Uttarakhand. Sunrise at the summit, sunset on the way up, and a weekend well spent from Delhi.
10 days across Thailand — Walking Street chaos in Pattaya, Bangkok nightlife and skyscrapers, Phi Phi Island kayaking, and a Phuket half-day tour. Full cost breakdown included.
5 days in Singapore on a company offsite — Changi Airport attractions, Gardens by the Bay, Singapore Zoo, Universal Studios, Marina Bay Sands, and a night safari. Full Klook cost breakdown included.
A winter trek to the Kedarkantha summit — freezing winds, a 2:30 AM start for sunrise, snow-covered trails from Sankri, and camping at base camp. One of the best winter treks in India.
Two treks in one trip from McLeodganj — the 13 km Kareri Lake trek with snow and hailstones, and the classic Triund ridge overnight with sunset views over Dharamshala. College trip on a budget.
A spontaneous trek from Rishikesh to Chopta — the world's highest Shiva temple at Tungnath, Chandrashila summit, zero light pollution, and clear night skies in the Garhwal Himalayas.
