Mountains and hills are mind-boggling serene locations to go for tranquillity and live in restful surroundings. Waking up to the panoramic views, snow-covered slopes and admiring lush greenery are the beautiful offerings that a hillock would have for you in-store. Have a picnic on the picturesque cliff watching the sunset and surrender yourself to nature; indulge in activities like trekking, camping and river rafting to rejuvenate yourself. Come back home with a refreshed mind to get back to your daily routine.
Travelling on a budget of Rs. 10,000 can be very cost-effective if you plan the trip smartly in advance. Starting with booking an accommodation under right tariff, set a daily limit for expenditure, rent a bicycle to explore the city, relish on local cuisine, and shop at the local market to get things at a lesser charge. Keep a handy notepad to track expenses to spend under the limit. So, now you know you don't need to spend a fortune to have a funfilled vacation.
May is that month of the year when you start with your long holiday planning. So, don’t wait further. Take out your pocket calendar and start marking your travel dates. Don’t forget to ask your kids and family if they have a destination in their mind. Plan early to earn good deals.
Leather jackets, thermals, gloves, leg warmers, socks, comfortable walking shoes, lip balm/sunscreen/lotion, wind-cheaters, sweaters/pullovers, mufflers, woollen socks, earmuffs, backpack, umbrella, camera and most importantly a first-aid kit are the best things to pack whilst travelling to the hills.
While travelling on a budget, you can track your expenses by keeping a journal or using an expense tracker app. You can set a daily target budget. Haggling when it comes to shopping saves loads of money! Accommodation, where you can prepare your meals, is a way to save money. Always travel with someone who is on a similar budget so that you don't get carried away by the splurging of your travel buddies.
Travelling in May can be much more comfortable as students' vacations start. Hence, planning family trips is much more feasible around this time of the year. You can also utilise the extra money from your new appraisals here. You can skip the hot summer of your hometown and head to a cool hill station.
