    For those who follow me on Instagram this isn’t new but I really wanted to do a post around beautiful places I’ve been to lately and for which I’m incredibly thankful! Even when I didn’t go to Europe, I knew I would fall in love with that place because it gives me a feeling of belongingness.  And I was right, all this time I really wanted to go and when I was finally there – it felt like I’ve been here before. It was such a homely feeling! We landed in Vienna and were only there for day – we took a tourist bus and covered as much as we could in a day. I think that was the best thing to do because Vienna is huge and there are so many castles and palaces to see. It’s gorgeous! Also, there were tons of vegan restaurants which was amazing!

    Brno in Czech Republic was our next stop where we were going to stay at our friends house. So before the trip, I was told – ah you will love Prague so much and you wouldn’t wanna come back. I obviously was expecting the same. But honestly, I really liked Brno, It’s a city where you can see yourself living. I loved the vibe of the place – may be it’s because our friends were showing us around but I like cities. Cities with good vibes and you fell safe and confident. It was extremely comfortable to roam around alone in the city which I personally really enjoy doing.

    We had 2 days in Prague. We were staying very close to Charles Bridge, As expected I obviously fell in love with the city – it was dreamy ( I’d recommend going in off season – it will be much nicer). Every street is beautiful, amazing scenic beauty. Live music on Charles Bridge is really really awesome. It gives you goosebumps! I loved it! But there were too many people! It’s really overwhelming when you go there but after a while it gets to you. People people everywhere! We had gone to Charles Bridge so many times in two days that I didn’t want to go there anymore. It’s very touristy! May be when you start living there it’s different. I liked the most on Sunday when it quite and calmer and it also looked much prettier! From Charles Bridge – it’s a sight at night though! Out of the movies!

    WEEKEND TRIP TO THE PINK CITY!

    So last weekend husband and I went to Jaipur. Both of us have been to Jaipur before but we were going there together for the first time. I really like Jaipur, but this time I was more excited about the hotel we were going to stay in. We were going to stay in Fairmont, we got a gift card from our very good friends on our birthdays a couple of years back. We never got the chance to use it, but now with direct flights from Chandigarh to Jaipur – we really wanted to use it. Though this wasn’t the best time to visit Jaipur, but we really wanted to go because both of us have been extremely busy and we really needed a break. And it indeed turned out to be a really good break! We started our trip on Saturday morning and and were in our hotel by afternoon, which was really awesome and we felt really fresh. The whole process was really easy and not tiring at all. We quickly got fresh and chose to ate in the hotel itself. Even though we really wanted to explore eating places in the city but our hotel was a little far from the city, we were sure we couldn’t wait that long!
    So Fairmont is a huge property and they have done it really well. We loved staying there, food could have been better though! But what bathrooms man! So bloody gorgeous. First day we could only explore market in the evening and we could find something really interesting things. We bought a couple of old Mughal art paintings with something written in Farsi and we got old postcards. Oh and I went to a planetarium for the first time. It was so cool, reminded me of La La Land so much! Never thought touristy things can be fun too. Next day we went to Albert Museum which was really awesome. So Jaipur has some fun rooftop restaurants to try, I’m glad we could try a couple and they were really good, but nothing beats the STEAM! Steam is a life-size steam engine themed lounge & bar on wheels, and trust me, if you go there – you are in for a very fancy ride. But honestly, the highlight of the trip was light and sound show at Amber Fort. It was really outstanding, they did such a good job! It literally takes you to another era. It feels like the fort is talking to you. It’s unreal! Here are a few snippets from our trip, I hope you enjoy it 🙂
