Hi Uttara, December-January is one the best times to visit Cambodia and Vietnam. During this period, temperature ranges between 20C to 30C. Humidity remains around 74% and rainfall is minimal. This is the peak season therefore you will encounter a lot of tourists there.
UpvoteCommentThe weather in Vietnam can be split by region. In Hanoi & the north, May to October is hot and humid with high rainfall; November to April is cooler and dry. In the far north, December & January can be particularly cold. Central Vietnam experiences hot, dry weather between January & August when temperatures can hit the mid-30Cs; whilst high levels of rainfall can occur in September, October & November. Southern Vietnam is generally dry and hot from November to April, and warm and wet between May & October, with the highest rainfall in June, July & August.
UpvoteCommentDecember is a great time to travel since lot of Indian destinations can be visited due to a cooler climate. Within India, I recommend Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Lakshadweep, Kerala and Coorg (Karnataka). Internationally, you can go to Sri Lanka, Maldives, Seychelles, Bali, Dubai, Turkey or Egypt. Go through the attached article for more options.

I am not a full time traveller yet but I am trying to build my to it. So my answer purely based on my research, experiences and discussions I've had with other full time travelling chaps. Below response is solely my opinion there might be or rather there are other ways to it as well First and foremost let's be informed that becoming a full time traveller is not at all flimsy or glamourous as it looks. Probably just 10%-20% of what most of the full time travelling individuals, bloggers and vloggers portray. They have to portray it as fascinating as it can be or else why would we be even talking about it or even bother to get out of our comfort zone and take uncertain decisions. It does take immense amount of resourcefulness, intuitiveness, efforts and creativity besides your love for travel. So if you understand that notion really well, let's try to put things in perspective and understand the current mainstream idea of getting paid for full time travel. Just like starting any business or profession you would need an initial capital to invest in certain tools, equipments and offcourse to travel. I am sharing certain pointers which cover the basics of being a full time traveller while monetizing those travels to keep travelling more. 1. Be open to talk or converse with different individuals or even strangers. Building connections is the key to become successful in achieving your travel goals. 2. Making and executing your own customized travel itineraries and keeping them as cheap as possible atleast initially. 4. Originality in anything always attracts more people towards you. 3. Rationing your travel expenses (unless you have a big fat bank balance) 3. Presenting these travel experiences to interested audiences/ viewers and gain traction or following as much as you can using any media (social media, word of mouth, connections etc) 4. Once you have a considearble amount of following or presence in the travel industry there'll be options from this point on. Option 1 Start building your own travel itineraries using the help of connections you've made during travels or making new while planning for one. Promote yourself as an individual or as a brand for these travel plans. You might have to spend a little in marketing these plans to others. Convince others to let you take them to these travel destinations and pay you for all the arrangements while you keep a margin in it as your profit. Take people to these destinations and show the place/ places from your perspective or intuitive travel itineraries. Ensure these individuals had a good time with you and would want to travel with you again. If somebody enjoyed your trip he/she would definitely spread the word for you within their connections thus keeping your travel going & income for it flowing. This will help you attain your travel goals while you inspire others to travel on their own or with you. Option 2 Start sharing your experiences of travel in articulated format via blogs, vlogs, short movies on platforms like YouTube, Vimeo, blogspot, tripoto etc. More like becomming a full time travel blogger/ vlogger or reviewer. Again you'll have to be creative enough with these things as much as you can so to get people onboard and make them follow your travel experiences. With due time and enough experience start approaching different brands to sponsor you for your travels. You'll have to be smart enough to let these brands sponsor you while showing them their profit in it. Indulge in affliate marketing and doing promotions, reviews etc for relevant brands. This helps you travel and keep generating income to travel more. Option 3 If you are able to manage it do both of the above. PS: I have barely scratched the surface of being a full time traveller. Always ready to listen and respond to your ideas, questions or comments if you want to discuss in detail.

These places emit a peaceful vibe and are relatively untouched by the hordes of tourists. The culture of these places will mesmerize you.
UpvoteCommentHi Ravi, the best route from Ahmedabad to Leh is the following: Ahmedabad->Jaipur->Chandigarh->Manali->Leh. The Manali-Leh highway is only open from June to October. If you are not traveling during these months then you will have to take the Srinagar-Leh highway. So, that will be Chandigarh->Jammu->Srinagar->Leh.

Hi Arti, the best and safest way to travel from Bhubaneswar to Puri is by hiring a reputed private taxi. If you do prefer public transportation then there are plenty of buses and trains that ply this route. At least one bus or train per hour leaves Bhubaneswar for Puri. Of course, there are fewer trains and hardly any buses between 10pm to 6am.

Hi Mrunal, Sitlakhet doesn't have enough attractions to keep one there for a week. Unless, you like to relax and experience the village life. The prime attractions there are Jhula Devi Temple, Chaubattia Orchard, and Khoont village. There is one trek (4km) to Syahi Devi Temple that lot of travellers enjoy. Some travellers trek to nearby traditional Kumaoni villages from there. However, Sitlakhet is close to other prime places like Bhimtal, Naukuchiatal, Mukteshwar, Kaladhungi and Binsar.
UpvoteCommentOctober - June is the best time to visit Mcleodganj Mcleodganj experiences extremely pleasant summers with the temperatures hovering around 25 degrees. The best time to visit Mcleodganj is during the months of September to June. It is best to avoid July and August due to the heavy rainfall Mcleodganj receives. so October is not off season , so may ne crowd is there. you can spend 2 to 3 days normally there.

It has become too commercialized, yes. You can head up to Dharamkot ( about 4-5 km from Mcleo ) if you wish to avoid the crowds.

Please provide some information about Hampta pass, Is it gud for current season?
4 Responses
Sushant Shrivastav
AnswerWishlistThe Hampta Pass is a grand trek for any season. And the Hampta Pass is open to trekking for more months in the year than our other treks like the Roopkund, Rupin Pass or Goecha La. There is a simple reason for this: Hampta Pass, at 14,500 feet, is at a lower altitude.
The special thing about the mid June attempt on the Hampta Pass is the snow. The amount of snow that you will see on Hampta Pass will make you believe that you are in the Arctic. It has also got to do with the terrain. Most treks that we conduct are over very open valleys like the Rupin Pass or the Roopkund. The Hampta Pass, on the other hand, is a crossing that starts out in a narrow valley and stays that way until the very end, when we descend at Chatru. The narrowness of the valley accentuates the gathering of the snow. In mid June, you will find the first patches of snow, even on Day 1, lining the sides of the valley walls. On Day 2, as you climb through the Jwara meadows, snow patches start increasing they are everywhere and almost immediately, you hit the first snow bridges over the Rani Nalla. That day, when you camp at Balu-Ka-Gera, you are on a wide river bed with snow mounds rising all around you. The temperature drops. Quick acclimatization climbs on the snow patches around the camp make for perfect preparation for your next days adventure of the Hampta Pass crossing. The next morning, just as you step out of the Balu-Ka-Gera campsite, the Rani Nalla disappears under you under a vast snow bridge. It reappears briefly as it widens to a flat bed of clear water in fact, your last water source to go under snow and ice never to be seen again. It is strange to think that a good part of your trek to the Hampta pass is actually over a snow glacier on the Rani Nalla. for more detail visit - https://indiahikes.com/why-hampta-pass-is-a-superb-trek-for-mid-june/
UpvoteCommentHi, you should reserve 10 days for your trip. It will take you two to three days to reach Leh from Delhi depending on how long you drive for. You can spend the first night in Manali and second in Jispa. Reserve five days for Leh and surroundings. The places to visit in and around Leh are Nubra Valley, Turtuk, Pangong Lake, Khardung-La Pass and Hemis. For your return trip take the Leh-Srinagar highway. You can spend the 15th of August in Kargil :) before moving on to Srinagar. Places to visit in and around Srinagar are Dal Lake, Shalimar Bagh, Nishat Bagh, Gulmarg and Sonmarg. Halfway between Kargil and Srinagar is a lovely mountain hamlet of Naranag. If you have time do visit it. I have attached an article that gives you more information about it.
