In 2005, when the trio of us vacated on Uttarakhand for a mere Rs. 3100/person on a 10 days trip. We had to share it with our friends and when we did and shown them photos of our hotels, the scenery, the river rafting, the temples and I don’t remember what else, they were blown away by no bounds. Why, because the usual price for a 10 days trip in those days was at least 5500/person. It wasn’t just this one trip, it had always been so, we always managed to travel across 29 countries by 2019 for way cheaper costs than a regular person does. No, we’re by no means backpackers; we didn’t cut on our luxuries. It was always a 4* to 5* category of travel.
