A Potpourri of Vestiges Feature
We all get tired of our busy
lives and feel like breaking free of the day to day drudgery. Travel often
serves as the elixir that helps keep us in the right spirit as and when our
daily schedules get a bit too overwhelming. Speaking of travel, even those who
are habitual travelers see Honeymoon as the best time to fulfill their travel
fantasies.
The desire to travel gets
stronger and stronger when we see various beautiful places on television,
cinema screens or internet. Just consider how popular a honeymoon destination
is Paris amongst the newly wedded Indian couples. Hollywood, and of late Bollywood, has
played a pivotal role in establishing Paris as one of the most desired
honeymoon destinations. Another thing that films have done is to make
destination weddings really popular.
Take the example of the films
that Bollywood has made in the recent times like Mubarakan and Shaandaar. In
fact, nowadays, majority of the films are shot in exotic foreign locations and
whenever one sees these places the desire to travel to those places increases.
I, for one, was really inspired to travel to the Scandinavian countries after
watching The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. I have many friends who decided to
travel to Europe for their honeymoon after watching the Kangana Ranaut movie
Queen.
While we all want to travel to
some amazing global destination like my friends it’s not always possible to
realize the dream. Often the biggest constraint is the budget. I am sure we all
would like to go ahead and take a tour to those exotic places if the packages
were pocket friendly. The irony is that we often end up going way over budget
even while holidaying at a local destination. But if we plan things more carefully we can certainly
undertake an international holiday for the same budget, if not less. The
trouble is our lack of knowledge and over-dependence on travel agents.
But I think those days are over
when travel agents could loot the uninitiated travelers, for Expedia has created
a tool that gives recommendations on honeymoon destinations around the world
depending on your budget and the time of the year you would like to go. As an
icing on the cake, they have also featured some famous Bollywood movies shot in
those destinations along with some famous Bollywood celebrity couple who have
been there for their own honeymoons.
