Since the Northeast is recording low number of positive cases, travel destinations are slowly opening up for travelers. If you have been thinking about planning a weekend trip then you can check out some of these recommendations. Do keep in mind that each State has different protocols with regards to Covid-19 and so do your research before you cross State borders.
Cherrapunji
This is one of the most visited weekend getaways from Guwahati. It takes about 3-4 hours to reach, depending on how many stops you make during your trip. The road is good, and you pass the most mesmerizing landscapes on the way. There are many staying options so you can take your pick depending on your budget. We would suggest you look at Saimika Resort and Kutmadan Resort. Both are reasonably priced and they offer quality lodging and food.
Do keep in mind that there aren’t a lot of activities to do in Cherrapunji but you can always go for nature walks and hikes. After sunset, you can sit around a fire and exchange fun or scary stories. It is one of the best places to simply unwind and each other’s company surrounded by untainted nature. Make a point to carry your camera along because you will get a lot of opportunities to click Insta-worthy travel memories.

MUSINGS OF A SOLDIER: TIT-BITS
People often ask me about my life out of uniform. Honestly, I have had no problems. Not so far. Instead, I find it quite refreshing. No routine, no parades, no briefing, no impending operations. Having donned the uniform since the age of thirteen until I hung up my boots last year, could I ever visualize life out of uniform? Not really. But, as I said, the transition has been quite smooth–no hang-overs, no regrets. People have been very positive in their interactions. Government departments have been responsive whenever I have approached for assistance.The genuine respect for the uniform is quite evident and it makes my heart swell with pride. Arunachal, to that extent, is the most nationalistic state in the country, I daresay. It has been kind of a revelation for me to experience the freedom of being a common man in an environment of positivity!
