Novotel Nara is situated in an outstanding location, surrounded by cherry blossoms. A good executive lounge with an open terrace adds to the experience. And on top of that, it’s available for Stay Plus redemption as well. This is one of the very few Accor properties I’ve

If this is the internet speed on a shared hotel WiFi with 100's of concurrent users, I wonder what the home internet speed would look like. #Pullman #Seoul #SouthKorea

It’s quite fun to watch robots deliver water bottles (or anything else) to your room. #Taiwan Not to mention, they even call your room once they reach the door. An absolutely smooth experience! Hoping to experience this someday in India. 📹 Courtyard Taipei Downtown

Happiness is having a look at the map before the trip. 🌏 What’s even more impressive is, was able to grab 4 award seats in the front cabin across Singapore, Asiana and Japan Airlines on all routes (except the shortest sector).

VFS appointment system for Japan Visa in Chennai is a mess!! Even after 1hr+ wait, they don’t call tokens as per the appointment time, since they take walk-ins too - mostly agents with bulk applications. On escalation, the counter guy claimed they didn’t get the list of

Happiness is collecting lots of stamps on your passport. Sadness is when you have to get a new one while it still has active visas. But I’ve found a way to delay that moment! With my 2 Year old passport likely to run out of pages very soon, I’ve started requesting immigration

I never expected foreigners to account for over 90% of the hotel guests, primarily Europeans and Chinese during my stay at Sheraton Kosgoda. After spending about a week in the country, I feel that Sri Lanka is far better than Goa for a beach getaway with much safer, peaceful and
