Hi
Friends!!!
Another weekend
comes and will go past as fast as it can. I am sure you are dropping the burden
of worries, and have plans to rock this weekend. The major plans for all guys
would include IPL for sure. MI is my pick again for this season, loyalties to
the Master, as always.
Coming back
to beautiful world of Travel lets discuss today new trends or ways of traveling that add to the time you spend and help you come back with renewed
energies and an open mind. The travel industry and the travelers are caught in
a mindset now days. It’s the concept of days and nights and itineraries. Cover as much as you can, value for money etc.
This takes you back to your routine life. Running and stressful. Make your
holidays short but relaxing. Try to cover more but not making one holiday
hectic but try and chip in small breaks and travel more.
As the
heading goes want to share some unconventional ways of spending vacations, away
from the hectic itineraries and the fixed departures.
Tents for Camping |
1.
Camping in the Himalayas: A picturesque view of Himalayas behind
you. A serene landscape and amidst the beautiful valleys you find your tent.
Wohh...a dream vacation for me. The weather, the atmosphere, the calmness just
make you feel you are in a different world altogether. Accompany the same with
Trekking, Kayaking, and Rafting for adventure enthusiasts. Nothing like it.
Plan and customize your vacation, no hurrying group travels, and no fixed
itineraries. Sounds interesting, it will be more than that trust me. Clubbing
an IPL match in the evening at Dharamshala...will that add to the fun? You can’t
ask for more.
Sky Diving |
2.
Love Flying Experience Go Sky Diving:
Ever wondered
how the birds fly and enjoy the beautiful nature from their bird’s eye view.
Felt like breaking all shackles, have wings and fly in the sky. We all did as
kids, but the ones who still have that feeling with them, should try Sky
Diving. A growing adventure sport in India helps you learn various other
aspects like, team work, learning new skills, developing an alert mind and
finally leads to flying. The adrenaline rush of diving from 10000ft and landing
with the parachutes is awesome. The training schedules help you learn and the
instructors make it safe for you. You need three days and bit of guts to do it.
Not eating much of time into your hectic schedule and giving an experience of a
life time.
Mountain Cycling |
3.
School Buddies Planning a Get together, Try Mountain Bicycling: Remember the old school days, we as a
group of friends cycling to and fro from school. Racing with buddies and arriving
in style. The buddies are same but the moments are gone. Today the best way to
connect is Facebook or WhatsApp. Bicycling...can’t imagine with friends as city
life doesn’t gel with it. Fine just pick up your phones, talk and plan a 4-5
days vacation. Enjoy Mountain Bicycling in the foothills of Himalayas in Kumaon
region. Camp in deep jungles or hill top lodges. Get nostalgic and race again
with the same friends in the best adventure cycle tracks the country has to
offer. Believe me you will
spend the best moments of your life and cherish them for the times coming
ahead.
Camp Sites |
4.
Camping in Jungles with Rappelling
& Trekking:
A wildlife fan and have visited some sanctuaries before? Try this, away from
the regular and monotonous visit to sanctuaries and forest reserves. Leave the
conventional ways of moving in the jungle with big vehicles or jeeps and trying
to capture whatever you can. I would suggest spend sometime in the jungles. Try
activities like trekking into deep forests and spend time understanding them.
Activities like rappelling across waterfalls, body surfing in village canals or
swimming in river pools. Exciting and never done before stuff, leaves you with
great memories and an superb experience.
Moving back after activities mentioned above, will only give you one
thought, the next trip is just round the corner. These unconventional outings
would enforce the words I stated above that you will be back with renewed
energies and an open mind.
Any help or information required to plan any of the above just write in
to us at Ratnesh@indiakhoj.co.in.
We would be happy to help.
Get unconventional, explore the unexplored.
Keep Traveling and do share your comments and experiences.
Cheers!!!
