The mountains have a way of calling you exactly when you need them the most – and this was one of those times. The hustle bustle of everyday life needed a break and that’s when we thought of packing our bags and heading for the hills. We chose to visit Chail, the peaceful hill destination in Himachal Pradesh which had always been on our list, and this time we finally made it happen. We travelled from Delhi and chose Sterling Shivalik Chail to be our abode where we experienced not just a comfortable stay, but also heartfelt hospitality, soulful food, and unforgettable moments in nature.
After a wonderful and memorable stay at Sterling Ooty Elk Hill, our journey continued to another charming destination in the hills – Kodaikanal. This was our first visit to Kodaikanal, and the excitement was unmatched! We had heard so much about this place – the misty mountains, the calm lakes, the pine forests – and couldn’t wait to experience it all in person.
Sterling Holidays ensured we had the smoothest journey from Ooty to Kodaikanal. In a private car we moved to a scenic journey filled with winding roads, dense forests, and occasional waterfalls cascading down the hills. In around 6-7 hours, we entered Kodaikanal, the air felt fresher, the skies seemed clearer, and a cool breeze instantly rejuvenated us.

A Comforting Stay in the Heart of Little India: My Experience at Hilton Garden Inn Singapore Serangoon
TravelSingapore had always been on my travel list – a city that blends culture, modernity, and vibrancy so effortlessly. On my first trip to this beautiful island nation, I wanted to experience both the comfort of a good hotel stay and the local charm of the neighbourhoods. That’s exactly what I found at Hilton Garden Inn Singapore Serangoon, located in the heart of Little India – one of the city’s most colourful and culturally rich areas.
Life came to a sudden halt last December when I lost my father. No words, no gestures can ever fill the void left by a close family member. As hard as it is, life gently nudges us forward. Somehow, we gathered the strength to keep going—carrying his memories in our hearts, every step of the way.
We wanted to take our mother on a trip—to help her rediscover joy, to breathe life back into her days, and to remind her that healing, though slow, is still possible.
While planning our getaway destination, we wanted a hospitality partner which understands our needs. Having experienced warm hospitality and comfortable stays at Sterling Holidays properties in Nainital and Mussoorie in the past, we made our reservations for 2 properties in the hills.
Sometimes all you need is a quick escape from the hustle of city life, and for us, Karma Lakelands proved to be just that— an oasis of calm, luxury, and unforgettable family moments, all wrapped in the lap of nature. We recently celebrated my brother’s birthday with a staycation at this eco-luxury resort, and what a beautiful experience it turned out to be!
I can never say no to hills!
It was Nidhi’s birthday and she expressed her desire of heading to the hills. Hence, we packed our bags, booked our ride and headed to the hills.
We girls love applying makeup irrespective of the occasion. Makeup helps both dress up and down our looks. Ever wonder how we take our sweet time to apply makeup but are quick to put back the makeup tools without cleaning them? Cleaning makeup brushes is a commitment that not many of us are ready for. But hey, cleaning makeup tools is a must because the soft brushes deserve some love and care, not only for their sake but for the sake of our skin too.
It is during traditional occasions that we get to showcase our ethnic style. From sarees and dresses to kurtas and pyjamas, all our Indian outfits get a chance to shine during the festivities. Weddings are one such festivities where we can get decked up to the nines, covering our head to toe in all things bling.
Sarees have been a part of the wedding scenes for centuries, showcasing our rich cultural heritage. Among all types of sarees, a Kanjivaram saree is the perfect choice for festive occasions. These sarees exude richness from top to bottom. They are more than just traditional Indian attire; they are an emotion.
