An ideal holiday is one where there is no work pressure .
the only purpose should be to spend quality time with family and friends .such
a break is is vital .i just wish that i could keep travelling........

my last holiday was a trip to manali with my family and
friends . we just wanted to beat the heat . we didnot go for any of the
packaged tours and hired cabs from the delhi
. our friends back in delhi played
navigators on cellphones to help us find our way around.

once we reached manali , we hit the hill roads for a
shopping spree. my friends say that i can shop from any where  for any thing .this time too , i picked up
cloths , wall hangings.i got some good bargains on wooden decor pieces . i
always make it a point to buy items exclusive to a place as souvenirs and keep
sakes.

travelling has always been a great experience . most of the
locations we visit for work are the places that i have never visited earlier
.so , the cooperation of the locals makes the trips memorable.

read about a place to get basic knowledge about its culture
. but donot go with any preconceived notions.
