“The beauty of travel is that someone’s ordinary becomes your extraordinary.”
Thank you for stopping by the travel blog. We are a family of 3 living in Atlanta, GA and I am the queen for getting the best out of travels and enjoy going to new places.
We have visited about 30 counties and most of the trips are 1 weeklong to fit into the school schedule. Some trips are only 1-2 days long and these are solo side quests when I go on business trips and layover trips when we are going home to India. I love travelling and my husband and child reluctantly follow me:-). Most of our trips are mix of adventure to keep the teenager entertained along with hikes and chasing waterfalls. I love watching sunrise in new places and have found that usually even at the most touristy/ popular spots, you can have solitude in the early mornings. Other thing I love to do in all the countries we visit is to run a mile as part of my “Been there ran that mile” series. Running in various countries gives you a very different experience and get to meet local people and appreciate local culture in a different way.
The blog is divided into:
- Itineraries – Downloadable and printable version of our trip with details
- Layover trips– Short 1–2-day trips either utilizing the free service by airlines or trip on our own.
- Destinations– Details on weeklong trips taken during school breaks along with recommendations and my take on the place.
- Gastronomy Corner – As a food scientist and foodie, I love trying various food and drinks of the countries we visit, and these posts are my reviews of the food and restaurants.
- National Parks-US and International national parks and things to do
If you want more details, please reach out and I can share more information on any of our trips. I enjoy travelling so much that I want to share the joy of travelling with others and would love to help you plan your trip and share any tricks and tips and dos and don’ts.
