#CityOfLove #CityOfLight #Paris #ParisJeTaime #GoodFrance

The one city which always have been pending in my bucketList - Paris. Finally the day had come to see the dream coming true when i was about to land in the #CityOfLove Day 1: It was a long flight , approx 9 hours from bangalore to paris but a comfortable one. Thanks to the #onTimeArrival #YummyFood #BetterInfortainment provided by the #AirFrance. We landed around 8 am and it took approx 40 minutes to finish the immigration and baggage collection. Because of the unfortunate terrorist attacks in france, the immigration officers are more cautious and alert. They may ask you all the details- including hotel stay, reason of visit, places to see for tourist visa, so be prepare with all documents and calmly answer all queries. There is a free WIFI at paris airport, we just quickly check emails and made sure we instagram first post from Paris ;) The taxis are quite costly in Paris, it charges around 52 Euros from airport to our hotel in the Bois Colombes. There is a metro

The best place to see in Pattaya - Nong Nooch Garden (Pattaya) #Thailand

Pattaya is one of the best tourist place in Thailand to enjoy the beer beaches, but there is more to it.... There are a lot of other sightseeing places that can be seen in and around the city. One of the most top-rated attraction is "Nong Nooch garden", which is in the north part of the city around 30mins drive from the Walking Street. Its spread in 500 acres and you can easily spend half day to see all the greenery along with some man-made concrete animals. You can also enjoy the Elephant show and musical performances within the garden. The entry cost around 800THB, but if you book online you can save a lot of money. I booked through "hotels2thailand.com" and its prize was almost half. You can also see other websites like TripAdvisor or KLook.com, but I found first was cheaper than all. Just to make sure you buy the ticket which includes performances and elephant show, you can skip the ticket which includes lunch buffet as there are plenty of lunch op

#InnerPeace #WatArun #WatPho #Bangkok

When you say Bangkok, many words come into mind- busy life, traffic jams, sunny hot , street food , night life and Buddha temples. After going through almost all the experiences, finally we reach at Khao San road where we booked our hotel. Its just a 5 mins walk from Khaosan road to the Royal Palace and Wat Arun/WatPho temples. It was a Saturday so we expected lot of tourists and we were very right, the palace was filled with lot of tourists and local people too. It was a special day in Thai calendar, where all of local people joined to pay respect to the beloved King. All people were wearing black as a symbol of respect towards the king. Even as a tourist, please make sure you respect to the king and wear the appropriate dress when you to go palace or temple. The palace entry cost 500THB per person, which also including a ticket to a coin museum. You are allow to take cameras too , so you can capture the palace and all the related sections. If needed, you can hire the gui

Thrill seeking side of Pattaya

Pattaya is one of the best tourist place in Thailand to enjoy the beer beaches, but there is more to it.  Pattaya City Chon Buri Thailand  Ko Lan Na Kluea Chon Buri Thailand There are lot of other activities can be checkout. I like adventure and fun stuff, so this time i thought of trying Sea Walk and Parasailing. Although i have done parasailing before in Goa, but i never tried sea walk before. You don't have to book any of the activities i advance, just go to the Coral Island and you will be approached by many of the coordinators who organized such events. Going to Coral island is easy too, you can get Speed boat or ferry near the walking street. Speed boat will cost you around 250-300THB each person(to and fro) and it takes around 20 mins to reach island where as ferry will cost you just 100THB but it takes around 1hour. You may also have to wait around 20-30 mins sometimes to catch the ferry as it has fixed timing as compared to speed boat. You may have to ne
