Mama India! One of the most powerful holy place on the Earth. This was my first solo trip, it was challenging but I had very good time. I ventured out to Goa, Varanasi, Himachal Pradesh and I spent some time in Delhi as well. I can't wait to go back.

Nainital is one of my favorite places on Earth! The lake is so beautiful and surrounded by greenery. There is hustle and bustle in the markets and street shops, all admiring the beauty of the lake. Staying in a comfortable place perched on the hillside, you will find gorgeous views. Locals are genuine and helpful, but be aware when walking in the Tibetan market area because there is the possibility to be targeted by child pickpockets! All other areas are normal and not as congested, but that...

I was volunteering in Jodhpur for the longest time but I had a chance to do tourism during my two last months, and it was absolutely breathtaking !! I was staying in Hostels and met so many friendly people, even stayed friends with some of them. India is huge, every state is like a different country with its language, culture, food… amazing !!

You can travel 24 / 7 everywhere freely without hasitation !!! 🫶🏻 Old city is not so preferable to explore at night so explore that at a day time only ! New ahmd you can explore anytime there's no safety issues at all !!😌

I have lived in Pume for a long time almost about 13 years and I’ve never felt unsafe here when I travel in the day or at night people are nice. You’re safe. Of course as a girl, I take more care extra care about myself, but that is when you go to any other city, but in general, I would say Pune is a lovely place. It’s a very low lowkey life city.

I’ve been living here for so long that i can assure you that it’s one of the safest cities in India. It’s appropriately under surveillance wherever required, police is always on the rounds to keep checks, one can freely roam even at 3am in the night

Pichpocketing, cat calling, unwanted brushes in crowd is unavoidable. Do not trust strangers, even women. Explore in well lit and well populated areas. Don't book an accommodation in OldDelhi. You will find one auto driver or shopkeeper who is genuinely sincere. Always listen to your instinct, if it tells you to run, don't overthink

About me
Dancer at heart, researcher by profession, and traveller whenever I get the chance. I love good food (making and eating), spontaneous plans, long walks in new cities, music that makes me move, and a little bit of chaos in between. Also veryyyyyy likely to stop mid-conversation to pet a random animal.
