- Dream travel destination? Andaman Islands
- Preferred mode of transport? Self Driven car and walking
- Facepalm moment in any trips? To go to a monument to find it closed for the day
- Most beautiful place that you visited? Shillong
- Has traveling changed you? In what way? Yes it has. It has taught me the importance of being able to gel with people and the power of a smile. A smile does open up a lot of avenues.
- Solo Trips or Friends group or Family trips? Why? Small group, max of 4 members, else solo. More the merrier works only while splitting the bill, otherwise, more clashes of opinions and indecisiveness.
- Have you ever thought of quitting job for travel? Will you do it? Thought, yup! Will I do it….dunno. Need the money to plan the future trips :p
- Have you Ever forgotten to carry a camera to a trip? What was your reaction? Nope, never done that mistake yet. Forgot a memory card though, had bought one immediately.
- What is your reaction when you see people posting every minute of their life on SM? Its a way to keep people informed of where they are. Loved ones worry less. I post regular updates to keep my mom from worrying a lot.
- Have you cancelled any travel plan last minute because something came up at work? Reaction? Yes, had to. The reaction was a bit of sadness and the plan to go out the next weekend.
