Places to vist during winters in India

-
So I professed my love for winters in the previous post. For me, hill stations are for winters. Strange, right? I mean the entire country flocks to the Himalayas during summer vacations to escape the heat. But for me, I prefer to enjoy the hills during winters. The crowd is less and the weather is superb! Also I get to wear a lot of winter wear!
Here I round up six of my favourite places in India (North specifically) to visit in the winters!


Dalhousie: The only reason I visited Dalhousie in January is for the snow blanket. Who needs to visit Europe when our own country has paradises like this?

 Its important to wear a smart yet warm jacket like this. You can find many mens jackets online.




Ladakh: This place is the harshest, coldest and the least populated during winters. However the beauty during this time is unmatched! The hotels are the cheapest, you can get very friendly with the locals and you can finally connect with yourself as you can't be hooked to social media in Ladakh!

Don't forget to protect yourself from the harsh weather. Whatever warm clothing you wear beneath, top it with a warm leather jacket like this one. Find this here.


 
Mussoorie: At any time, I would go to Mussoorie in winters rather than summers. The crisp, chill air is to die for. Also there are no maddening crowds like that during summers. The Himalayas are best experienced during winters,
 Don a smart leather jacket like this. Find this here.


 
Auli: This place is a skating paradise in the winters. The lush green grass gets covered in snow everywhere.
You need a smart, yet warm leather jacket like this. There are lots of jackets for men online

 
Delhi: It may be a surprise to us Delhiites. But for foreigners and non Delhiites. winters are the best time to explore the capital city. Delhi is dangerously hot during other parts of the year. You can soak in the winter sun while you expore the gorgeous parts of the city like India Gate, Rashtrapati Bhavan, etc.
Wear a sophisticated mens jacket for exploring the capital. Find this here.


Manali: Almost entire Himachal is covered in snow during winters. Places like Manali become a heaven for snow lovers. You can iceskate and make snow men.
Protect yourself from the bitter cold by wearing a warm, padded jacket. Find this here.

Effect of COVID 19 on edible oil industry and Palm oil

  The Corona pandemic has caused a havoc on the global economy. Some countries have been more affected than others. I however would like to focus on the effect of the pandemic on the edible oil industry and Malaysian Palm oil especially. Last week I attended a webinar hosted by the  Malaysian Palm Oil Council with Dr Bhavna Shah, country representative of India/Sri Lanka as the speaker and what she said about the palm oil industry right now is really food for thought. How has COVID 19 affected the edible oil industry?  The pandemic caused shutting down of restaurants and catering businesses and hence a drastic reduction in the  import of edible oils. People have reduced eating outside to a very large extent and also takeaway orders have declined. This situation was particularly grave during the lockdown period. The production of cooking oil comes under Essential goods services but the production of containers isn't. Labours migrated back to their villages from the ci...

Celebs who I love following on TikTok

The world almost stood still the past two months. While everyone stayed at homes and worked from within, my job didn't permit so. Yes I am a frontline worker (a medical professional) who had to go to the hospital during the entire lockdown time. I was double stressed: Catching the infection myself as well as silently passing on to my two little kids or my elderly parents. I have been seeing and hearing people cursing this quarantined life but they don't understand it's a privilege to be able to stay within the safe confines of home and work and earn. The only respite in this period has been TikTok. Yes, I am now a total TikTok convert.  If there's anything that got a boost during this Corona pandemic, it has to be TikTok. This app has seen billions of downloads and users in the past couple of months. And why not? It's like a breath of fresh air. After I come back from the hospital and undergo a rigorous sanitation regime to ward off any kind ...

SCHIPHOL AIRPORT TO AMSTERDAM How to reach to the city center from Airport is always a big question while travelling. By far car/taxi is the easiest and most convenient form. But it’s costly, if you are travelling solo or as a couple. There is no harm to save few bugs but yes, comfort is always a priority. Public transport in Amsterdam is very convenient, fast and comfortable.   Shciphol is world’s 14 th largest airport situated 22 Km south of Amsterdam city center. It’s well connected to the city center and nearby places by bus train and taxi. By taxi : The maximum start price of taxi car is near about 2.83 euro, with travel rate of 2.08 euro per km and travel time cost 0.34 euro per minute.
