IN THE HEART OF NATURE
Uttarakhand natives Kriti Bisht and Ashish Godara have long lived the simple life nestled in a stone house they built for themselves, in Nainital, for the past three years. They farm, forage, cook and tend to their Ayurveda garden. And now, you get the opportunity to live the slow life too (with a few luxuries, of course) in their home, aptly named Slowness Himalayas, which is now open to guests.
Inspired by Kumaoni architecture, conscious design elements define the home. Laze around in a hammock or enjoy endless cups of chai in the open seating area with birdsong as company.
UNWIND
A weekend getaway is also the perfect way to ease yourself into the world of exploration whether you like to discover a new place on a solo trip, with family, a partner, or friends.
Oleander Farms in Karjat, a few hours from Mumbai, offers you the chance to kick back amid a compound dotted with towering trees, and peacefully running fountains that set the tone for zen-like serenity.
EASY DOES IT
Heritage meets harmony at the gorgeous MansionHaus, a boutique hotel, in Goa, characterised by timeless architecture, curated gastronomic journeys and a peaceful stay at Goa's most effervescent neighbourhood, Anjuna. Neo-classical interiors paired with iconic Goan architecture delicately balance the luxuries of a hotel with sustainable sensitivities. What makes the property authentic is that it is spearheaded by a Goan entrepreneur whose family has been deeply rooted in the fabric of the city's rich culture for generations.
