Hills and mountains are a second home to every person who loves being surrounded by nature, walking under hovering clouds, listening to the gushing water or watching flora and fauna in their natural habitat. Whether you are a mountain or a beach person, the experience you get when you are amidst blooming starry sky, hugged by the chilling breeze, listening to the birds sing odes to nature is like no other.
At around Rs. 30, 000 you can actually look at planning a fairly lavish vacation with 2-3 star hotels, some fun-filled activities, moderately budgeted restaurants and bar with relishing delicacies, and commuting by flights. You can still travel by a train to save on to some amount which you can happily use up for shopping at the tourist markets. Pre-planning and pre-booking is still recommended to avoid any unplanned over expenditure.
September is the time for you to think what to do with all the travel savings from the last 3 quarters. Simple! Just plan a quick trip to a favorite destination and you are all set to bring in some life to the last quarter of the year.
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.
You can cover international destinations like Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan, Taiwan and Thailand under a budget of Rs. 30,000. In India, you can plan a trip to Kerala, Goa, Gokarna, Assam, Sikkim, Nagaland and Pondicherry in the same budget.
Though September offers pleasant weather, it is an offseason, that means massive discounts on flights and hotels as well as lesser crowds.
