I'm not a full-time travel blogger. I'm not a digital nomad. I'm a regular 9-to-5 tech professional who squeezes trips between deadlines — long weekends, public holidays, and the occasional PTO stretch.
This blog exists because every time I plan a trip, I spend hours searching Reddit, blogs, and YouTube for the same basic questions: Where did you stay? How much did it actually cost? What would you do differently?
Most of what I find is either outdated, vague, or written by people whose budgets don't match mine. So I started documenting my own trips — with real numbers, honest reviews, and the stuff I wish someone had told me before I went.
What you'll find here
- 💰 Real cost breakdowns — every rupee and dollar accounted for, from stay to chai.
- 🏨 Honest accommodation reviews — with booking links and Google Maps pins, so you can check them out yourself.
- 🔄 "What I'd do differently" — because hindsight is useful, and I can't just redo the trip next month.
- 📸 Photos from the trip — no stock images, just what I actually saw.
No sponsorships. No fluff.
Everything on this blog is self-funded and based on my actual experience. When I recommend a stay or a route, it's because I genuinely liked it — not because someone paid me to say it.
If my notes help even one person plan their trip better, this blog has served its purpose.
