Ski Trips I’ll Always Remember
I’m a university student, and most days my head feels full before I even get out of bed. There’s always an assignment I haven’t finished, a reading I skimmed too quickly, or an email I’ve been avoiding. Winter is when that mental noise gets louder—but it’s also when skiing gives me a way out.

Manaslu Circuit Trek
The 11 nights 12 days trek in the Manaslu conservation area of Gorkha district is one of the best multi day trek that trekkers can do in Nepal. Manaslu Circuit Trek is an incredible choice for off-the-beaten-path lovers. It is the best alternative for those who want to avoid the more touristic trails like Annapurna and Everest. Mt Manaslu, with a height of 8,163m, is the main attraction of the trek, and the trails encircle the Mt Manaslu clockwise, so it is called the Manaslu circuit trek. With the Mt Manaslu trekkers can see the peaks like as Mt Manaslu 8163 m (26,781 ft), Himalchuli (7,893 m (25,896 ft), Ngadi Chuli 7,871 m (25,823 ft), Buddha Himal 6672 m (21889 ft), Cheo Himal 6,820 m (22,375 ft), Manaslu North 7,157 m (23,446 ft), Samdo Peak 5,177 m (16985 ft), Naike Peak 6,211 m (20,377 ft), Larke Peak 6,249 m (20,505 ft) and many more.

Jhalana Leopard Safari is Jaipur’s best-kept natural secret, offering travellers a rare chance to experience wildlife without leaving the city behind.

Netravati Trek – Where Misty Hills Meet Silence. AI-Generated.
Some treks are about conquering heights. Others are about conquering noise—escaping it, stepping away from it, and rediscovering a quieter rhythm of life. The Netravati Trek, tucked away in the Western Ghats of Karnataka, is exactly that kind of journey. It’s where misty hills stretch endlessly, silence feels comforting rather than empty, and nature still feels raw and untouched.

Every pilgrim, while performing the sacred journey of Umrah, wishes for all the perfect moments. But in reality, Umrah was never meant to be perfect. It was meant to be sincere. Pilgrims arrive in Haram, carrying many expectations.

The Genius Idea of Stopovers in Warsaw
Normally I aim to spend anywhere from two to three hours between connecting flights at international airports before moving on promptly to my final destination. In the adventure my wife and I undertook, we had a stopover in Warsaw of a whopping seven-and-a-half hours **during the day**. There is no way any airport is so good to spend that much time there during the day, so we were definitely going to see the city. But was it worth it? Could we see something and get back to our connecting flight without being frazzled?
