Travel & Music || Enchanting Himachal and its Charming Songs

For the past few years, I have taken to Himachali music. I first got introduced to it during my wedding, when a constant background music of women singing Himachali wedding songs, made the simple ceremony even more beautiful.

And this also gives me a great advantage - when I sing these in family gatherings, VJ's side of the family is unfailingly impressed by a non-Himachali knowing so many Himachali songs :-P.

Sikkim - The Land of Lakes, Rivers, and Waterfalls

It had been a while (more than two years) since VJ and I had gone on a vacation together. So when an opportunity to take a vacation at a very short notice came knocking, we decided to make the most of it. We did not have enough time to plan, so we had only two options - purchase a really expensive itinerary from the likes of MakeMyTrip or head out without much planning and decide the itinerary on the go.

Dera Kumbalgarh Resort || Exemplary hospitality and perfect location for a relaxing stay

After almost 9 months of exclusively eating home-cooked food and being practically cooped up in our homes thanks to the raging Covid-19 pandemic, we were starting to terribly miss the outdoors by December 2020. We had done pretty well so far - managing to effectively work-from-home, managing family, household chores, and also maintaining positivity and sanity, in general. But cracks were beginning to appear now - evenings had become more dreary, the drive to try new recipes had waned, and home-cooked food had lost flavor.
