As the sun hid behind gray clouds and created a lovely shade, as an amazingly refreshing breeze and smell of wet earth enlivened the surroundings, it suddenly made me realize how much I had missed out on! It has been a month since the monsoons set in, but stuck in daily schedules, I had been ignoring this beauty around me. Suddenly this beauty overwhelmed me and I needed to feast my eyes on it, relax and unwind in this amazing weather! Have you guys been feeling the same?

This awesome weather brings back some great memories. My buddies and I would always meet up on weekends at some of the coolest cafes and pubs! We would sit with Foster’s and catch up on stuff… Bet you do the same! But, this time we wanted to plan a cool weekend getaway to experience this lovely weather and check out some cool places!!

I have put together some places you could check out for your weekend getaway!

SHIMOGA (Jog Falls) Karnataka: India’s tallest waterfall is best seen in the monsoon. Fog and rains play with the waterfall view, making it disappear and re-appear every few minutes. The waterfall is reduced to a trickle for most of the year, but if there are some good rains, they return to their glorious form in the monsoons.

LONAVLA: If you want to learn the best way to pamper your eyes and calm your mind, then it has to be Lonavla! With lush green expanses, it’s one of the most exciting and soothing spots for a weekend holiday. It is known for its picnic spots, ideal for friends to chillax. The best part is to watch the sunlight filter through the sun-window and cast patterned shadows on passersby.

KHANDALA: Best known for its frothy, milky, silver waterfalls set amidst the lush green mountains, it is a perfect place to relax and unwind. Khandala has retained the charm of a small-town friendliness which is a good break from the hustle-bustle of Mumbai.

NANDI: Nandi hills is a short 50km drive away from Bangalore. Witness the magnificently foggy mornings in winters and the rainy season. This place is indeed foggy, cool and beautiful. Though I didn’t have the fortune of seeing those foggy hills, I did get to see billowous clouds above and below me, magically segregated by a line of blue sky!

Here are some other places you can check out. Nisargadhama, Mahabalipuram, Adishakti, Velaghar, Amboli, Mandu, Meenal Falls, Chambal… let’s make most of this amazing weather and experience the Art of Chilling!!
