All through this winter I was bundled up in and it was a “brrrr”illiant winter!🥶🥶❤️❤️ We went down to -2 degrees and I was still quite comfortable!! 😍

Layering is key!! It’s actually not about how many layers you put on but about the quality of those layers. And this is the best way to do it, as I’ve learnt -

1. Good quality thermals- top and leggings. I have the Kosha Bamboo thermals. These are soft, super warm and really light weight. They trap in the warmth and keep you toasty!

2. Warm polo neck - Again very important. The Kosha ones are light and very warm.

3. Socks - Can’t stress enough on good quality socks. For me personally, if my feet are warm, the rest of my body stays warm. They also reduce chances of blisters, smelly feet and cramping toes.

4. A warm jacket or trench- Again, go for something that’s lightweight. It makes it much easier to move around. If it’s too bulky it’s annoying! I also love this particular one cuz it has a faux fur hoodie that keeps my ears warm. My brother carried a trench coat from Kosha which was again very warm and light weight. It also looked really cool. He said he felt like Sherlock Holmes in it. 🤓

5. Gloves - I have the waterproof ones that also have touch screen pads cuz I shoot a lot. But Kosha also has cute Christmas gloves!

6. Shoes - You can either go for snow shoes or hardcore trekking shoes. I prefer trekking shoes cuz they’re multi purpose and this way I can carry only one pair.

7. Ear muffs - This is something I’ve recently bought and haven’t used yet so not sure how I feel about it but I have heard good things and I’ll keep you guys posted!!

📍 Ljubljana, Slovenia. This has hands down been our favourite stay yet! It’s designed by an interior designer and you can see that!! The aesthetic, the colours, the design is SO ON POINT!! Every corner is gorgeous! And it came equipped with the absolute best amenities - huge fridge, beautiful kitchen, cutlery, lots of couches, armchairs, swings AND every time we enter the house, the speaker plays chill music - whatttt!!! So so impressed! 🥹❤️

Huge thank you to for hosting us at such brilliant properties! ❤️

Loving the Slow-enian life! ❤️ This country has absolutely blown our minds! We must have driven around Lake Bled 100 times and each time we wanted more. People walking their dogs, old couples walking hand in hand, friends chilling around a bonfire, clean, fresh air, beautiful sunsets - it’s what retired life dreams are made of haha. But seriously, if you are planning to visit Europe anytime soon, please put Slovenia on your list!! ❤️

Saudi Arabia is full of contrasts and we were witness to this every single day that we spent there exploring. From quaint mud houses to sleek modern buildings, from generational carpet shops to thrilling amusement parks, from traditional Arabic coffee to modern fusion cuisine- we saw it all in the five days we were there. It’s a country that is pushing hard for change to happen. Not just technology wise but also in terms of freedom. They do have a long, long way to go, but it seems like the change is here to stay and it feels good to see it happen real time. They can’t change history but they sure can forge their own history here on. ❤️

📍Al Ula, the dreamiest part of our Saudi trip!! It is a vibrant living museum of preserved tombs and monuments both natural and man made that hold 200,000 years of human history. We were blown by the vastness and brilliance of this place. Wish we had more time to really explore this stunning place. ❤️

The first image is of Maraya - the largest mirrored building in the world. It is a force to reckon with. It rises from the sand like a mirage and towers over the arid landscapes of Al Ula reflecting different sides of it. Maraya’s auditorium has also hosted world class musical performances!

Huge shout to .and.meat who captured this shot in ONE go. This is the only image we shot in Maraya and she nailed it with the composition!! ❤️

North Goa Stay Recommendation - ! This is a cute little place, 5 mins walking distance from the Morjim beach. The rooms are spacious, clean and very nicely done up. They also have workshops on mixology, yoga etc. We went in the monsoons so we missed those but it was a lovely stay nevertheless. The common area especially is really nice with books to keep you company. ❤️

Had such a beautiful time at , Kodaikanal! Surrounded by beautiful hills, enveloped in clouds 😍 The rooms are spacious and the 4th image is the view from the rooms - rolling hills and so much greenery! They also organise barbecue and bonfires for guests on request. It’s a great weekend getaway if you’re looking at going from Bangalore. They have a villa you can book if you have a big group. They also arrange a very cool waterfall dining setup which we had to miss as the rains caused the water levels to go up! But be sure to ask them on your trip! ❤️

How to go back to travelling Economy after travelling business class, please tell me!! The Brisbane- Singapore flight takes 8 hours and I kid you not, the time FLEW (literally and figuratively 🤓) I wouldn’t have minded if this flight was 16 hours long!

The food was impeccable, the drinks were ever flowing, the generosity of the staff was unmatched and the comfort uffff! 🥹

The seat doubles up as a bed with just the click of a button, the blanket is fluffy as hell, they have free wifi on board and they have noise cancelling earphones that make the movie watching experience 10X better.

So again I ask HOW to go back to flying economy please tell me!! 😩

PS - the last photo is my doggy devouring the Singapore Air teddy that the staff gave me to make my pictures look prettier!! He says thank you for the gift 🐾🥹❤️

These gunduuussss!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Meeting the Imayo tribe has been such a heartwarming experience. I will carry these moments in my heart for a long long time.

I enjoy the company of kids (some at least.) It’s a joy to be surrounded with so much innocence, earnestness and just the ability to be yourself without judgment. Like my Dad says, you should never lose your childlike qualities - of wonder, honesty and unadulterated love. ❤️

Here’s to us always embracing our inner child, taking care of it and nurturing it. ❤️

Vanuatu has been all sorts of special- from seeing my first ever active volcano to experiencing some of the rawest adventures. But, I’ve always believed that people are what make a country and Vanuatu is definitely all about it’s people. So happy, kind, forthcoming, helpful- delightful!! Despite being a country that is so vulnerable to natural disasters, still recovering from two major cyclones- the people always have a huge smile on their faces. If ever you visit remote countries please make sure to tip generously and help the local economy. I’m happy we could help in some small way!

Vanuatu is also my 30th country!😅Realised much after we landed up haha!

Diving at the Great Barrier Reef in , Australia is an absolute dream come true!! The reef is every bit as stunning as it is said to be. Soft corals, hard corals, anemone with little Nemo shuttling in and out, turtles, colourful fish - it is so so rich in marine life. The visual of the sun streaming in and the colourful reefs glistening is etched in my mind! The great news is that we spoke to a lot of researchers and marine experts who said the reef is doing really well thanks to the efforts by the people and the government. Big shout to for hosting us and for making our bucket list dreams come true one adventure at a time!! 🫶

It also has a gym, sauna and whirlpool bath and has good wifi - a haven for digital nomads and WFH peeps. I truly believe that paying attention to the little details are what make a place. And that is exactly what Ataraxis did. Honestly adore the place and can’t recommend it enough.
