While searching for Airbnbs in Chiang Mai, we stumbled upon this charming homestay called Lucklub, nestled within what the description called an artists’ village, just 7 km from the city center. The name ‘Baan Kang Wat’ was mentioned in the description, and it was a place I had never heard of before! Curiously enough, I
To the people I met in Egypt, It’s been nearly a month since we returned from Egypt, but I’m still suffering from post-trip blues. Even now, I wake up thinking about those slow mornings in Zamalek, sipping pistachio lattes from the cozy coffee shop next door, strolling through quiet streets that eventually spilled into the

The train ride from Nuwara Eliya to Ella is one of those journeys — winding through misty tea plantations, lush green valleys and little mountain villages, with breathtaking views at almost every turn. It’s slow, scenic and wonderfully unhurried, offering a glimpse of Sri Lanka that you simply can’t experience from the road. I had
Long before he changed how we understood the universe, Nicolaus Copernicus was born in the medieval Polish city of Toruń. Today, you can walk through the same charming old town, discover the house where he is believed to have been born, wander past Gothic buildings, and, of course, eat your way through Toruń’s famous gingerbread.
“The rain stops and my friend departs. I wish he had stayed, I wish the rain had not stopped so soon.” -Ruskin Bond. It was just another day when I met ‘this person’. He came to JNU to play football with my friends. A brief interaction, some words exchanged over alcohol and dinner, and I
“Sunset felucca ride on the Nile? You know how much?” “Egyptian boat ride. Indian price. Brother, come.” “Very cheap price. One hour on the Nile. Only 10 Dollars!” As we strolled down the Nile Corniche in Luxor, the familiar calls echoed around us. By now, nearly a week into our journey through Egypt, we were
The moment you hear of Pondicherry, the first thing that probably pops into your mind is the gorgeous lanes with beautifully colored walls on both sides.

Sri Lanka is a country where history, culture, nature, and relaxation all come together. I remember when I first took a solo trip to Sri Lanka to celebrate my 30th birthday, I had no plans – I just decided to go with the flow, and it turned out to be an amazing journey! I realised
What draws you back to a place, time and time again? There must be something—something that excites you, intrigues you, and compels you to return. For me, this is my third trip to Vietnam and my second time in Hoi An, undoubtedly one of the most picturesque towns in the country. In 2019, Hoi An
To The One Who Loves to Chase Sunsets, I know how you feel while witnessing the sun kissing the horizon. Well, I’m not a morning person either, and I’ve missed more sunrises than I can count!
