Pondicherry is my ideal answer as the commute is super easy, you have multiple AC/Non-Ac buses, and pondicherry is very beautiful, lots of fun things to do and meet so many new people

Hey Sushant. Thanks for your question. Bali is at its best in the months of August and beyond until November. While traveling from India, the cheapest flights are available from Chennai / Kolkata. Kolkata flights will move via Malaysia, if you are flying by Air Asia. I have complied a set of posts on Bali for 4-5 days that can help you to prepare for your trip. Hope you find them useful. https://trawellblogging.com/trawellbloggers-guide-explore-bali/ All Posts:- https://trawellblogging.com/asia/indonesia/bali/ If you have any questions, you can drop me a message on the contact page.

UpvoteCommentIceland :
Even without the northern lights, Iceland is an otherworldly place to visit, with glaciers, geysers, massive waterfalls, and volcanoes. Both the latitude and longitude of the country favor aurora viewing, but the weather doesn’t always cooperate. However, a good coastline road around the country lets you chase clear skies. I have seen my best auroras from Kirkjufell mountain on the west coast. In high activity you can even spy the northern lights from the suburbs of Reykjavík; the Grotta Lighthouse is a popular viewing spot. Across the country, sky watchers can take in the dancing lights from outdoor hot tubs, inside Buubble lodges, and from hot spring lagoons. When to Go: Late August to early April

Hi, Akshat,
Weather in Spiti might be around 10-15 Degree C.
Even if it rains, it doesn't rain heavily. Mystical Culture and Heavenly Mountains will help you rejuvenate peacefully.
Regards.

Hi Akshat.. I would suggest not to visit Spiti during August as it rains quite a lot and there are chances of landslides and road blocks. Its best to visit Spiti from April to mid of July.

drive safe and be prepared with all the rain coats and other stuffs as the weather in sikkim is very unpredictable, u can get rain anytime. apply for permits few days before leaving as it can also help u to know what type of weather conditions are presently there

It is. Goa is the most beautiful place to visit during monsoons. It will be worth an experience. However, if you want to indulge in water sports, you need to opt for some other period since water sports activities are closed during monsoon.
UpvoteCommentAbsolutely....... it's off season time now in goa so u can travel in this month in reasonable budget
