I almost didn’t do a houseboat experience in Kerala. Not because I didn’t want to – but because I left it too late. After calling 8–10 operators on the same morning I wanted to go, I realised two things very quickly: one, this is the main experience here, and two,…

If you travel often enough, you eventually realise something. The things that make a trip easier are rarely the big things. They’re the small items you almost didn’t pack – the shawl that becomes a blanket on a freezing flight, the snack you’re grateful for three hours into a delayed…

The first thing that hits you in Mechuka is scale. Mountains that feel close enough to touch, valleys that drop away forever, and a silence that swallows sound. This remote valley in Arunachal Pradesh doesn’t politely introduce itself – it kind of demands you notice it. Raw, vast, and completely…

Updated: Aug 2026 I thought ByWard Market was eclectic. That was before I stepped into Kensington Market.
