Bora Bora Beckons….Where Art Thou?

At times I find myself being possessed by Mr. Bean. And what’s so wrong with Mr. Bean also if the names of places were such that you would just want to go on repeating them like a moron again and again. Now take for example – Rabo. And now keep saying that name a million times to yourself. Like not slowly…go fast and there will be the place of your dream vacation spot. So, yes…go Rabo – Rabo – Rabo – Rabo – Rabo – Rabo – Rabo – raBO – bo-RA – Bora – Bora – Bora. Woah, yes that it is!
The very first image to weave on someone’s mind would that be of a sultry spot nestled right in the heart of the Pacific. Well, am not on any honeymoon before you might think so. Like stereotypes are a little hard to put with at times. And one [...]

The Machu Picchu doppelganger

If you were to talk about Peru and lost civilizations that are visited by people the world over, the first name mentioned by anyone worth the stamp on their passport is that of Machu Picchu. The tragedy, however, is that no one knows of the “other” Machu Picchu that far many hikers are now preferring. We are talking about Choquequirao, literally meaning “The Cradle of Gold” and this is a trail that is wild and feral, untamed by time and loved by hikers for its remoteness and distance from the commercialism and popularity of Machu Picchu, its more celebrated cousin. Located in Southern Peru, this Incan city’s remoteness is its strength as the few that do make it here are treated to a world trapped in time and far from the madding crowd.

In structure and style, it bears a markedly strong resemblance to Machu Picchu and is littered with architectural [...]

Trotting to Tanzania

Think of Tanzania, Think of Safari. This synonymous approach strikes nine out of ten people (you were one of them, weren’t you?) In the whole of Africa, animal habitat over here is the best than anywhere else. Nestled in the southern part of Kenya, Tanzania is known for its natural beauties and variedness. The cultural vibrancy of this exotic destination spans from the woods of the animal kingdom, the tribal folks inhabiting small villages to the leading urban parts of Tanzania. This cultural amalgamation spread over the shiny and the rugged parts of Tanzania attributes the experience to be so unique and intriguing in its own ways.

Visiting Italy and miss the Leaning Tower of Pisa? Naa! Visting India and miss the Taj Mahal? Naa! So, how can one visit Tanzania and miss on the African Safari? Hell No! The best place to spectacle the animal kingdom is at [...]

Lost and Found in Lagos – Portugal

Spain may emerge as a snooty neighbor who sort of dominates over the picturesque Portugal, but even then the place doesn’t hold back from attracting a million travelers each year. Much like a proud feather in the cap of Europe, Portugal boasts a winding historic past and came to be discovered in the 15th century when Portuguese were on their way to find a route to hit the Indian shores. It is during that search for an access to Indian territories that marked the discovery of Portugal. A perfect vacation in the historic and archaic city would begin from cobblestone streets that meander in to the nooks where significant monuments and architectural styles vivid in the construction of the buildings paddle one back in nostalgia. The best way to explore the city is by hiring a bike on an hour basis which can be easily found by the streets. This [...]

Not entirely a vacation spot, but to spectacle the legacy and the cultural vibe of the city that is ever moving and [...]

Cast under the Spell of Cambodia

Cambodia is generally underestimated and ignored when it comes to the travel front. A trip to Cambodia most certainly has to include the key destinations of Angkor Wat, Phnom Penh and also the pristine Mekong Rivers. A vacation to Cambodia, as the place is further explored unraveling the wraps of fascination, is marked by tours to places like Sisophon, Battambang, Kep and Sihanoukville.
Although, once viewed as a notorious and perilous place, ever since then, Cambodia is in the process of establishing itself as a rather more tourist-friendly destination and fostering a friendly travel experience opening a gateway for people from varied origins to learn about the culture and history of Cambodia by coming here. As seeing is believing, maybe this is how steps are taken to over rule the infamous past of the destination.

In order to reach Cambodia, many tourists treat the place like a stop-over on their ways to [...]
