Amrita, you surely have turned my dull day bright 🙂 Taking forward the concept of Liebster Awards, here are my answers to the questions asked by Amrita 1) Where is your favourite place in the world? Why? Undoubtedly Goa. It is like a second home to me. I am most relaxed and at ease when I am staring at the vast ocean with a book in my hand and the time flying at my sweet own pace. No other place has given me that feeling, yet.
3) Which are your top 3 favourite travel bloggers? The Lazy Travelers Shooting Star Empty Rucksack 4) If you were not travelling, where and what would you be doing? I would’ve been desk-bound planning and executing marketing strategies and crying over it 5) What is your favourite memory from your travels? This is a tough one. There are numerous. But one that stands out is my first Himalayan climb to Bhrigu Peak. Standing 14700ft above sea level, I was looking down at other peaks. Those few minutes atop I did not sense any feeling whatsoever. I felt I had achieved Nirvana. 6) What has been the most challenging experience yet? My mom used to send me to trekking camps as a kid. I used to hate rock climbing. As a frail 8 year old, pulling up myself was probably the biggest challenge for me. In later years, facing the Bhrigu Peak, it was a huge test to let go of the fear. 7) Which is the one country you haven’t been to yet and would love to go to? Tough decision but I guess Amsterdam 8) Pick one- mountains, forests, cities or beaches? I am a total beach babe.
9) Which are your top 3 favourite destinations? Goa, India Ladakh, India Pokhara, Nepal 10) What does blogging mean to you? Blogging is such a great platform for individuals to express their talents.
