Finally, wrapping up my last blog for this competition with a journey filled with everlasting memories. Here's a meticulously planned two-day itinerary for a visit to Theni . 🌄. How to reach ? While Theni may not be an off-the-beaten-path destination, it's easily accessible by train from Chennai. However, securing confirmed tickets can be challenging due to the limited number of direct trains. Alternatively, you can opt to travel to Madurai and then catch a bus to Theni.

We should all accept the fact that social media has changed the way we travel. While scrolling through some uninspiring reels and blogs about Kodaikanal and Poombarai, I stumbled upon an unheard-of place called Vellagavi . Despite having no prior knowledge about this location, an unavoidable urge drove me to include it in my upcoming travel plans. In today's era, travel is often driven by a desire to discover unique, unexplored destinations, with the goal of being among the first to experience them. However, as this trend gains momentum, it is crucial to consider its impact on the socio-economic fabric of these emerging tourism hotspots. Sharing my experiences and exposing such places, like Vellagavi, may alter the essence of the location and its people. Exploring new destinations and experiences is wonderful, but responsible and considerate travel choices are essential. Allow me to introduce Vellagavi, a small and enchanting village in Kodaikanal.

Hello everyone! After a month of procrastination, I am thrilled to finally share my incredible experience of a 4-night/5-day trip to the five Kumaon regions of Uttarakhand. Packing Tips: Thermals (top and bottom, not compulsory but recommended). Gloves (essential for roaming around places after 6 PM). Trekking/Boots/Normal Waterproof shoes (important for walking in slippery or tough terrains). Woolen socks and beanies are compulsory. Winter jacket (one that can withstand temperatures below 10°C). Scarf and mufflers are optional based on your resistance to cold. Small shoulder bag for carrying essentials during sightseeing. Handkerchiefs, tissues, and Zandu Balm/Axe Oil will be helpful if you catch a cold. Carry tablets for fever and cold.
