Flights will be biggest expense. So keep a lookout for good deals. Fly to cheapest airport possible - usually Rome, Paris or Prague, but not always. Skyscanner is good for knowing which is the cheapest place to fly to. Accomodation: Mix it up with a lot of couchsurfing (google it), which is free accommodation and often includes access to a kitchen which means you can make your own meals and save some money there. Hostels in many European cities can be India-cheap - as little as Rs. 700 for a bed. Most hostels also have some kind of a self-service kitchen. Hope that helps!

Hi Manish! If you're interested in exploring National Parks in December then one of the best places to go is the Gir National Park in Gujarat. During the winter season, spotting wildlife is much more easier as compared to other months of the year. If you're interested in going absolutely off the radar, explore Ladakh/Kaza in winters. Agreed that it becomes unbearably cold, but if you are well equipped, pick a home-stay and get disconnected from the world. It is a breath-taking experience for those who enjoy solitude. You will get plenty of time and opportunity to interact with the locals, and learn about their culture and lifestyle. Hope this helps!
